Description

Ravenswood, Loreto Park, South Douglas Road, is an impressive, 5-bed detached family residence (220 sq. m), on c. 0.5 acres, occupying a prime position within one of Cork's most prestigious and established residential neighbourhoods. Set behind a gated entrance and framed by mature landscaping, the property immediately impresses with its commanding double-fronted façade, elegant proportions, and exceptional kerb appeal. A generous cobble lock driveway provides ample off-street parking and leads to garage, while mature evergreen screening creates a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion.

Internally, Ravenswood offers bright, generously proportioned accommodation ideally suited to modern family living. The home's mature setting, combined with its substantial footprint and established gardens, provides a rare opportunity to enjoy both space and tranquility in a highly convenient city location.

Situated in the heart of Loreto Park, one of Cork's most sought-after residential addresses, the property is within walking distance of Douglas Village, Ballinlough and an excellent range of local amenities, including cafés, restaurants, sporting facilities and shopping centres.
Families will appreciate the proximity to some of Cork's most highly regarded primary and secondary schools, while Cork City Centre and the South Link Road network are all easily accessible.

Set on an exceptional, mature site extending to over 0.5 acres, this remarkable rear garden is truly in a league of its own and completely surpasses anything found among neighbouring properties. Lovingly created and meticulously nurtured by the current owners over many years, it is a testament to their passion for gardening and outdoor living. Beautifully stocked with an impressive collection of mature trees, established shrubs, vibrant flower beds and expansive rolling lawns, the garden offers a peaceful and private oasis. Wonderfully flat and
level, it provides the perfect setting for family enjoyment, entertaining or simply relaxing in stunning surroundings.

A garden of this size, quality and maturity is exceptionally rare in such a sought-after location, and one that will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression from the moment it is seen.
