Property Description

A truly unique opportunity to acquire a character-filled traditional farmhouse with full planning permission for barn conversion, this impressive coastal property stands on a c. 0.56 acre site in one of the Southeast's most sought-after coastal locations. The property may qualify for the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant, with funding of up to €50,000 available (subject to eligibility criteria and terms and conditions), further enhancing the exceptional redevelopment potential on offer. Combining timeless charm with outstanding scope for restoration and expansion, this is a rare opportunity to create a bespoke coastal residence in a breathtaking setting.

The location is exceptional, positioned just c. 950 metres from the renowned Saleens Beach, with stunning panoramic views stretching towards Tramore, the Sandhills, and the scenic Back Strand. The ever-changing coastal landscape provides a spectacular backdrop throughout the seasons, enhancing the sense of space, light, and tranquillity that defines this property, while the surrounding countryside ensures privacy without isolation.

This striking stone outbuilding, dating from circa 1830, is a beautifully preserved example of mid-19th century rural architecture, retaining much of its original character and craftsmanship. Constructed using locally sourced stone with thick walls for natural insulation and durability, the structure reflects a time when functional design and skilled stonemasonry defined the agricultural landscape. Originally forming part of a larger working farm, it likely served as a barn or stable, playing an integral role in daily rural life. Today, its enduring presence offers a rare and tangible link to the region’s farming heritage, while full planning permission presents an exceptional opportunity to sensitively restore and transform the building into a unique contemporary living space that honours its historic integrity.

Importantly, the property benefits from full planning permission (Ref: 25/60434) for the restoration and alteration of the existing dwelling, along with the conversion of the adjoining barn to create additional accommodation. This represents a rare opportunity to significantly enhance and expand the home, allowing a purchaser to design and create a truly bespoke coastal residence while maximising the potential of the existing structures.

The current bungalow-style accommodation features a hallway and a spacious open-plan living/kitchen/dining area with a vaulted timber ceiling, exposed beams, and a wood-burning stove. It is complemented by two bedrooms and a bathroom, while the adjoining barn offers excellent potential for additional living space in line with the granted planning permission.

Ideally situated in a beautiful coastal setting, Corballymore is just a short drive from both Dunmore East and Tramore, while Waterford City is only 20 minutes away. Combining a unique character property with breathtaking surroundings and outstanding development potential, this is an exceptional opportunity to create a distinctive home in a tranquil yet highly accessible location.
