Property Description

Landmark Residence / Development Potential

Sherry FitzGerald O'Donovan are proud to present to the market The Glebe House & Gardens, Midleton, an exceptional period residence set on approximately 1.7 acres of mature and private grounds.

Formerly known as The Deanery, this distinguished Victorian home, complete with outbuildings, is discreetly tucked away just off the Dungourney Road. A Protected Structure (RPS Reg. No. 20830033), the property retains significant architectural and historical importance.

Approached through brick piers and sweeping boundary walls (with additional boundary walls to be completed), the sense of arrival is immediate. Despite its tranquil and secluded setting, the property enjoys the convenience of being just a short walk from Midleton town centre. Enclosed by attractive stone walls, the grounds offer exceptional privacy, while the scale of the gardens provides outstanding scope and development potential.

This elegant residence retains a wealth of original features, including full-height bay windows, timber sliding sash windows, and finely crafted limestone cills, all of which enhance its timeless character.

Inside, the accommodation is both generous and well-proportioned. The ground floor comprises a porch, entrance hall, three reception rooms, a garden room, kitchen, utility pantry, and both front and rear staircases. The first-floor hosts five spacious bedrooms, along with two bathrooms and a WC. While the property is in clear need of refurbishment and modernisation throughout, it offers a superb canvas for restoration.

To the rear, a charming courtyard with original cobble lock is complemented by stables and an outhouse, further adding to the property's appeal and versatility.

Also included in the portfolio are lands to the rear extending to approximately 1.15 acres, zoned ‘Existing Residential/Mixed Residential and Other Uses’ under the Cork County Development Plan 2022–2028, presenting a compelling development opportunity.

In total, The Glebe House & Gardens extends to approximately 1.95 acres, with circa 0.25 acres to be retained by the current owners. A full site layout is available upon request.

Undoubtedly one of Midleton’s most distinguished residences, The Glebe House & Gardens represents a rare opportunity to acquire a home of exceptional character, privacy, and potential.
