About this property

  • Harvel House on a c.1 acre elevated site looking south over Oysterhaven bay is a spacious 4/5 family home with enviable crowsnest-style coastal views. Oysterhaven nestled c.7km from Kinsale town centre offers a peaceful coastal haven complete with all of the conveniences of living in this world renowned bustling town. This picturesque harbour offers two beaches, boating and sailing facilities including safe mooring and an abundance of trails and walks for the nature enthusiast. The area boasts a designated wildlife sanctuary in the upper estuary which restricts any largescale development occurring in the area.

    Harvel House has been a family home since the 1970's with well proportioned living rooms, hallway and very large master suite. Much of the house enjoys panoramic views over the sea with large picture windows in the dining room, sitting room and master bedroom. On arrival you immediately experience the view from the generous hallway through double doors to the sittingroom. Here a double sided wood burning stove is featured also heating the family room. The large sliding doors leads to a vast Indian Porcelain paved terrace where you could sit all day watching the activity in the harbour together with regular ship sighting on the horizon. The kitchen features an oil fired Aga with centre island where you can also enjoy the views, leads to a family living area and an extensive dining table which sits in the bay providing enviable views for the family and guests.
    The master bedroom at the western end of the home has undisturbed views of the sea with a walk in wardrobe and wet room ensuite. Three other bedrooms and main bathroom are to the rear of this fabulous home, accessed from a hallway eventually leading to a large family/games room with potential for use as granny/au pair accommodation as it accesses both the utility room which could be converted to a kitchenette and a shower room, with its own private access.
    Outside to the rear is a generous garage/workshop, feature stone wall and a hard earth boule piste close to the parking area. The lawn slopes slightly southward toward the sea.

    Harvel House is a much loved family home, ready for its next chapter which might just be with you. Come and see for yourself!
