Capri is best known as an island off the west coast of Italy but you could have your own tranquil getaway in East Cork if you purchase Capri Lodge in Midleton.
This stunning A-rated 5 bed home has just gone on the market via selling agents Colbert & Co and is simply breathtaking inside and out.
There aren’t many homes that come with a right to fish but that is just one of many delights that accompany Capri Lodge.
The home offers 302sqm of living space on a 0.7 acre site and was built as recently as 2022 as a labour of love by its current owner, who is now taking on yet another build.
Every aspect of this home was painstakingly thought out including the planting of numerous trees years before the build even started.
Capri Lodge benefits from a secluded decking area with views over the countryside that can be enjoyed from its own 4-person jacuzzi. There is also an entertainment system with 80” fitted TV and one touch electronic blinds that are fitted in the majority of the large, glazed windows throughout.
The accommodation comprises of an entrance hall, living room, kitchen area, reception room, study/bedroom, utility room, two downstairs cloakrooms and a guest WC.
There is also a ground floor corridor with 7ft floor to ceiling glazing with views to the landscaped gardens. This leads to two bedrooms and a wet room.
Upstairs on the first floor there is a gallery seating area with views over the countryside, as well as a storage room, plant room, master suite with en-suite and another bedroom and a dressing room.
Capri Lodge also benefits from a large garage/workshop which has the potential to be converted into a separate dwelling.
Initially one large plot, the current owner split the site but kept a walkway down to the river which has a design for a platform/fishing area. Looking back up towards the property from the river, you can see just how impressive this building is which architect Andrew O’Brien designed to ensure the property gelled with the landscape.
This is important as the property exceeds 3,000sq ft, including the garage which can be converted to a living space if needed.
Located just a 2-minute drive from the East Cork Golf Club, this landscaped home also has close proximity to Midleton town centre and can avail of the ring road which gives easy access to N25. The nearby train station also accesses Carrigtwohill, Glounthaune, Cobh, Little Island and Cork City with departures soon to be every 15 minutes.
