Property Description

No. 1 The Crescent, Cobh, Co. Cork

No. 1 The Crescent is one of Cobh's most iconic period homes, occupying an enviable end-of-terrace position within one of the town's most prestigious Victorian terraces. Built circa 1860, this elegant family residence enjoys uninterrupted south-facing views across Cork Harbour, St. Colman's Cathedral and the colourful streetscape of Cobh.

Steeped in history and architectural significance, the property retains an exceptional collection of original Victorian features including marble fireplaces, ornate cornicing, pitch pine flooring, sash windows and the original staircase. Flooded with natural light throughout, the home offers beautifully proportioned rooms with magnificent bay windows framing breathtaking panoramic views.

Extending over three floors with additional basement accommodation, the property offers spacious and flexible living. The upper floor comprises four generous bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate WC. The principal floor features a drawing room, sitting room, kitchen, cloakroom and bathroom, while the lower ground floor provides further reception space, a second kitchen, an additional bedroom, bathroom, laundry and an extensive range of original stores and barrel-vaulted basement rooms.

Outside, the property is equally impressive. One of only two homes within The Crescent to benefit from its own private garden, No. 1 also enjoys a private south-facing courtyard and direct access to the beautifully maintained communal gardens, reserved exclusively for residents. A private gated pathway and steps lead directly from the gardens into Cobh town, making the town centre and train station just a short five-minute walk away.

Offering an extraordinary opportunity to restore and enhance one of Cobh's landmark residences, No. 1 The Crescent combines timeless Victorian elegance, unrivalled views and an exceptional location. Rich in character, history and potential, this is a truly rare opportunity to acquire one of the finest period homes overlooking Cork Harbour.
