There are views — then there are Blackrock Castle views.

Perched proudly on one of Cork’s most sought-after addresses, Castle Road, The Lodge has hit the market at just over one million euro.

This four-bedroom detached home isn’t just a luxe and spacious place to live; it’s a front-row seat to one of the city’s most iconic sights.

On the market with Savills for €1.05 million, the 1984-built property has been lovingly cared for and carefully upgraded over the years, with plenty of warmth and character.

“Stepping into the bright and spacious entrance hall, you are welcomed by an inviting sense of space and light.” says Lawrence Sweeney of Savills.

“To the left is the beautifully designed kitchen, perfect for both family meals and entertaining. Adjacent to the kitchen is the open-plan sitting room/dining area offers a warm and comfortable space, bathed in natural light from large windows overlooking the garden.

“The adjoining conservatory, which spans an impressive area, is perfect for soaking in the garden views, and it’s an ideal spot for enjoying the sunshine year-round.”

Downstairs, you’ll find two nicely sized bedrooms — one of which is currently used as a cosy second living room, so there’s plenty of flexibility depending on what suits your lifestyle. A bathroom and a super-handy utility room round off the ground floor, making it ideal for busy family life.

Head upstairs and there are two more generous double bedrooms waiting. The master really steals the show, with its own en-suite and a private balcony that looks out over Blackrock Castle and the River Lee. Just imagine starting your day with that view — pure Cork magic.

Just 800m from Blackrock Village and a few steps from Blackrock Castle & Restaurant, The Lodge offers that rare thing; complete privacy just a stone’s throw from all manner of modern conveniences.

If you’re in the market for a spacious home with one-of-a-kind castle views, this could be the start of your very own fairytale. Check out more images from inside The Lodge here.
