It could be a paradise for the right buyer.
A garden called Paradise at Rampart Lane in Kinsale has hit the market at €850,000.
The 0.17 acre site, which is listed with estate agents Sheehy Brothers and Engel & Voelkers, boasts full planning permission for a stunning four-bedroom, 3035 sq ft contemporary home with breathtaking views of Kinsale Harbour and Scilly Island.

Nestled above the busy Acton’s Hotel, the site enjoys easy access to the seaside town’s many restaurants and bars, but perfect peace also, set as it is on a quiet road in a residential part of town.
The plans are quite stylish too, here’s an artist’s impression of how a modern structure could blend pleasingly into the area, provided you have a couple of million left over to construct it.

“Located on Rampart Lane, adjacent to Green Hill and The Bowling Green, this centrally situated plot enjoys easy access to Kinsale town centre, just a short walk away,” says Sinéad Sinnott of Sheehy Brothers.
“A rare and exclusive prospect to own a site with sea views in this idyllic location, this property offers the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience. With mains water and mains drainage available, this truly is a fantastic development opportunity.”
