Description
Set on a beautiful site of approximately 2.75 acres, Shippool Lodge is a truly beautiful and signature home within a wonderful wooded and waterside Sylvan setting, just 1.5km from Innishannon, 12km from Kinsale and 21km from Cork International Airport. The property has been fastidiously maintained by its present owners and offers extensive accommodation of approximately 505 sq. m. including four bedrooms, master en-suite, two family bathrooms, private study, extensive private double height library, entrance hall and open overhead gallery landing out onto the main garden lounge which is seamlessly connected to a fully fitted kitchen area with double height vaulted ceilings and large panoramic windows out onto front gardens, complemented by a separate extensive fitted utility area with fitted pantry and w.c, as well as a connection to a leisure wing incorporating heated indoor swimming pool, six man powered jet Jacuzzi tub, Tylö sauna with a gym area incorporating shower facilities and plunge pool. Features throughout the house are numerous and specification of finishes extraordinarily high with a premium Jotul premium side loading solid fuel stove, pitch-pine flooring, privately commissioned extensive vaulted library with library railings and ladder, dark cinema room, together with a separate one bedroom self-contained apartment. The property has oil fired central heating together with a synchronised biomass solid fuel system recently installed, making this a very efficient home. It is however the property’s beautiful wooded setting, privacy and convenience that raises this property to a different level surrounded and set within a mature deciduous woodland setting behind private automated gates and elevated looking out onto the Bandon River with direct private river access incorporating a refurbished original stone pier presently being used by its owners as a leisure area with full access and views onto the impressive Bandon River flowing to Kinsale. A truly signature home which offers much more than this writer can relay in a beautiful natural wooded setting close to both Innishannon and Kinsale and within easy direct short driving distance of Cork International Airport and City. Viewing is strictly by application only, private and comes highly recommended as this truly is a property that requires viewing to be fully appreciated.
