Property Description

Set on approximately 9.2 acres of picturesque countryside and nestled alongside the beautiful Ballyannan Woods, Staffa is a superb detached residence offering space, privacy, and lifestyle in equal measure. Accessed via a private driveway and enjoying scenic views towards the water, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial home in one of East Cork’s most sought-after settings.

Extending to approximately 3,163 sq. ft., the property is exceptionally well laid out, offering generous and flexible accommodation ideal for modern family living.

The ground floor (1,867 sq. ft.) is both welcoming and practical. A bright entrance hallway sets the tone, leading into a spacious kitchen/dining area that forms the heart of the home. There are two well-proportioned living rooms, both enjoying views over the surrounding gardens and countryside.

Accommodation at this level also includes three bedrooms, a dedicated home office (suitable as a fourth bedroom), a family bathroom, and a Jack and Jill bathroom serving the office and adjoining bedroom. A well-appointed utility room provides access to a covered carport, which connects seamlessly to the garage.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three additional bedrooms, two of which are particularly spacious and positioned to either side of the house. A large first-floor living/games room offers excellent versatility and is currently used as a recreational space, ideal for families or entertaining. A third bathroom, complete with shower and basins, serves this level.

Externally, the property is equally compelling. The 9.2-acre holding provides excellent potential for equestrian use, hobby farming, or simply enjoying the privacy and space of country living. There is a substantial detached shed extending to approx. 1,886 sq. ft., offering clear potential for conversion to stables or a variety of other uses, along with a two-car garage (approx. 423 sq. ft.).

The heating is by way of oil with two tanks located in the garage, ensuring excellent storage capacity, while water is provided via a private well and waste is managed by a septic tank.

Despite its tranquil rural setting, Staffa enjoys excellent accessibility. The vibrant town of Midleton is just a short drive away, offering a wide range of amenities including schools, shops, restaurants, and the popular Midleton Farmers Market. The property is also conveniently located approximately 20 minutes from Cork City, providing easy access to employment hubs, shopping centres, and cultural attractions. Cork Airport can be reached in approximately 25–30 minutes, making this an ideal location for those commuting or travelling regularly.

This is a comfortable, well-maintained home in a truly special location — combining rural tranquillity with convenience to Midleton and all its amenities.

Properties of this scale, setting, and versatility rarely come to the market, so viewing is advised.
