sweep of the Kinsale coastline and the Sovereign Islands beyond, the focal point of the house is the flowing reception rooms. There are four double bedrooms, including a generous master suite, with a signature en suite. There is a small harbour at Sandycove, where residents are exclusively allowed a private mooring in the estuary. Today's tight planning conditions make it unlikely that such a house will ever be created again, making Avalon an exceptionally rare opportunity to live an enviable life-style. Found off a quiet roadway, electric gates lead to a drive that brings you down through a grass amphitheatre. To the front of the house are flat grass areas for family games of football or a helipad subject to planning, and a large parking area, with a very generous double garage, workspace and extensive outbuilding. There is a fire pit and a hot tub.
