BEAUTIFUL 6 BEDROOM VICTORIAN HOME ON c. 1.7 ACRES
Savills is delighted to present Knockeven House, a breathtaking Victorian six bedroom residence in the heart of Cobh, Co. Cork. Built in 1850, this architectural gem radiates period charm while offering modern comfort and exceptional space. Once a distinguished guesthouse, the property extends to approximately 5,059 sq. ft across three floors, showcasing remarkable original features and timeless elegance.
From the moment you arrive, Knockeven House captivates with its striking façade and private setting. The grand entrance, high ceilings, sash windows with shutters and intricate cornicing details evoke a sense of history and sophistication. The generously proportioned living and bedroom accommodation includes six spacious bedrooms, five of which are en-suite, and seven beautifully appointed bathrooms, providing ample space for family and guests.
Nestled on approximately 1.7 acres of stunning landscaped gardens, the estate offers a rare blend of tranquillity and convenience. A private entrance with imposing cast iron gates leads to a sweeping driveway, offering ample parking and a welcoming approach. Mature trees, lush planting, and carefully placed hedges enhance the sense of seclusion, creating a peaceful retreat. An enclosed courtyard, accessible from the dining room, is the perfect spot for entertaining, with charming stone brick walls adding to its character.
Knockeven House represents a rare blend of historical allure and modern functionality, making it an ideal prestigious family home with the flexibility for a home office setup. There is a choice of schools, shops, and leisure facilities nearby with this fantastic location offering an opportunity for harbour living with sailing and cruising possibilities. This impressive home invites you to be a part of Cobh's vibrant community.
Despite its serene setting, Knockeven House enjoys an enviable location just a short stroll from Cobh town centre. Residents can explore an array of boutique shops, cafés, and cultural attractions, while the nearby train station (300m walk) provides effortless access to Cork City and beyond. This combination of privacy and accessibility makes the property a truly unique offering.
A home of distinction, history, and character, Knockeven House is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of Cobh's most prestigious residences. This is more than a home—it is a legacy of elegance, offering an unparalleled lifestyle in a stunning coastal setting.
