The property stands on a c.0.75 acres site with front and back lawns, a young garden orchard and there are a selection shrubs, plants and young trees which are already beginning to mature. The site has fantastic 180 Degree views of the local countryside from an elevated hillside position. This spacious modern family home is located within very short driving distance of Kinsale, the town centre being only 4 Kilometres or 2.48 miles (4 minutes) drive or Cork city (15 minutes) drive.

"When designing 'Blackberry Lodge', the vendors and their architect wanted to create a family home that was easy to live in, extremely energy efficient yet comfortable year round. They attained this by installing a state of the art Firebird oil condensing boiler to power their QPL zoned self-regulating heating system. Each downstairs room is separately zoned. The heating is underfloor, which is American Maple, an engineered hardwood. In the upstairs zone there are radiators and is carpeted. The house is very well insulated and solar panels were added to improve the efficiency of the hot water supply.

A lot of glass was used in the build, giving a feeling of space and light and also to maximise the use of solar heat to cut fuel consumption. The result is average oil usage of 650 litres annually. The fresh water supply comes from their own well and drinking water is piped directly to every cold water tap throughout the house.

This spacious modern family home is located within very short driving distance of Kinsale, the town centre being only 4 Kilometres or 2.48 miles (4 minutes) drive or Cork city (15 minutes) drive.
