JOINT SELLING AGENTS: ENGLISH AUCTIONEERS & VALUERS, 2 EAST BEACH, COBH, CO. CORK

Quietly tucked away in a classic small development complex in the centre of Cobh town, this first floor apartment has entrance hall, walk in storage area, quality south facing kitchen and living room with balcony overlooking the harbour, two bedrooms and a bathroom. Superbly presented, fully furnished and equipped and ideal for owner occupiers or investors

This property is right in the centre of Cobh town, yet protected from the noise and bustle of the town.

Cobh, formerly the country's main emigration port, is a striking town - with many distinctive streets climbing the steep slope of a hill on top of which is St. Colman's Cathedral. Cobh has a wide range of banks, shops and commercial facilities, together with a good selection of pubs and restaurants to suit all tastes. The town has a large number of luxury cruise liners and Tall Ships visiting the deep water terminal, all of which will pass close to Cliff Cottage. Cultural facilities and entertainments, often focused on Cobh's strategic location and its rich maritime history include Cobh Museum, the Sirius Arts Centre, "The Queenstown Story", Cork Harbour cruises and the Titanic Trail.

With over 5 km of water frontage, Cobh is popular for a wide range of water based activities including wind surfing, sailing and deep sea fishing, whilst the Promenade provides easy walking with superb town, park and sea views.

One of the main advantages of Cobh is the railway connection with Cork City with frequent trains allowing easy access to the city centre. Cork, the second largest city in the country, has mainline road, rail and air connections and extensive and substantial cultural, commercial and retail facilities. Cork Airport is some 30 minutes from the property, via the Cross River Ferry, with connections to over 40 scheduled European destinations.

THE APARTMENT: Built in 1997 on the site of the old Cobh Garage, the south facing apartment is first floor and looking directly onto Cork Harbour, with panoramic views across to Haulbowline, Spike Island and over much of the Cobh waterfront.

This most attractive development only comprises just 12 apartments (of which only 6 are seafront) and two retail units. This is the first time any of these most desirable apartments have come on the market since being built.

The apartment is superbly finished, excellently presented, with full double glazing, central heating and comes fully furnished and equipped with good quality furniture and fittings.

With its position on the edge of Cork Harbour, all manner of gulls, kittiwakes, herons, cormorants, scaups and grebes can be seen from the windows and balcony of this apartment.
