Ardnalee. Lake Road, Cobh. Co. Cork

KW Quigg is delighted to bring to the market Ardnalee Lake road. An exceptional opportunity to acquire a charming period semi-detached residence with truly breathtaking, uninterrupted views over Cork Harbour, Haulbowline and Spike Island. Situated on the Lake Road — widely regarded as one of Cobh’s most exclusive and sought-after residential addresses — Ardnalee enjoys a commanding elevated position with a true “top of the world” feel, where ever-changing harbour activity provides a spectacular daily backdrop.

The property is further enhanced by a private gated entrance and a newly and tastefully constructed front boundary wall, adding both privacy and strong kerb appeal to this already impressive home. Outdoor Living The outdoor space is a standout feature of this property. A recently installed, future-proofed composite decking area to the front, complete with sleek glass balustrades and stainless steel handrails, has been carefully designed to maximise the home’s prized south-facing aspect and panoramic views. This elevated “crow’s nest” setting is perfect for entertaining, dining al fresco, or simply unwinding while taking in the stunning vistas across Cork Harbour.
