Built in 2002, and only a 10-minute drive from the historic town of Kinsale and just half an hour from the vibrant city of Cork, this residence seamlessly blends the charm of countryside living with the convenience of urban amenities.

As you enter through the gated driveway, the grandeur of Facefield unfolds before you. A sweeping tarmac drive leads through a vast front lawn adorned with native Irish trees, creating an aura of seclusion and privacy. The classical design of the house is immediately apparent, with a beautiful mahogany staircase guiding you through the entrance hall into the main reception area.

The ground floor boasts a series of inviting spaces, including a drawing room with an antique marble fireplace, a west-facing family room bathed in natural light, and an expansive sunroom offering panoramic views of the patio and garden. The kitchen and dining area, featuring a bespoke cherry wood contemporary kitchen, seamlessly connects to a morning room, utility, pantry, and a guest bedroom or home office with its own en-suite.

Ascending the majestic staircase, the first floor reveals four generously sized double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite and walk-in wardrobe. A spacious study and a light-soaked gallery room with commanding views provide additional luxury. The master bedroom, overlooking the back garden, boasts the largest en-suite and walk-in wardrobe.

The second floor unveils a versatile open space currently used as a gym, complemented by a double bedroom with an en-suite and a substantial storeroom. The meticulously landscaped garden features mature broadleaf trees, a picturesque pond, and a south-facing patio for outdoor dining.

With proximity to schools, golf clubs, and the scenic Wild Atlantic Way, Facefield invites you to experience the epitome of luxurious country living.
