SALE OF C. 2.5 ACRE RESIDENTIAL SITE IN AN EXCEPTIONAL LOCATION WITH MAGNIFICENT VIEWS AT MOUNTEENSUDDER, GLENGARRIFF, WEST CORK.

'Raford' at Mounteensudder is a rare, ' shovel-ready' opportunity to build a contemporary, architect-designed house on a fully serviced residential site within the Glengariff Harbour and Woodlands Special Area of Conservation (SAC). The coastal hillscape location enjoys stunning, dual aspect views over the inner harbour of Glengariff and Garnish Island to the South and the majestic Caha mountains to the Southwest offering a true 'sense of place' within easy walking distance of Glengariff village.

The mature, landscaped grounds feature a variety of shrubs, trees, ponds, and rock pools, substantially enclosed by deer fencing and new drystone walls. The extant stone clad garage/storeroom provides additional scope for development as a garden room overlooking the ponds or guest suite.

Full Planning Permission for a single storey house was granted in late 2024, the low-profile design of which seamlessly integrates with its surrounding topography and exploits the sublime views to the Southwest. The site is intentionally offered with open construction blueprints, giving an incoming buyer the unique flexibility to engineer the final construction drawings to their preferred Modern Method of Construction (MMC).

The site has had significant infrastructure investment in high-capacity utilities and drainage systems to date :
A new detached garage built to a high standard marks the entrance to the internal driveway that leads up to the terraced car park area.
A new 16kva power supply has been laid in to the property and to the new build garage
A new, private wastewater treatment plant comprising primary, secondary, tertiary (filter pod) and quaternary (polishing filter) has been built to EN12566-3 SR66 and registered with Cork County Council.
Extensive site drainage systems have been constructed in accordance with best practice SuDS (Suburban Urban Drainage Systems).
A new potable water pipeline has been laid down to the L-4929 County road to increase the mains water supply pressure from the Glengariff Water Treatment plant and the property has been approved for private well grant assistance in accordance with the housing (Private Water Supply Financial Assistance) Regulations 2020.
