Elevated Woodland Site with Harbour Views - Approx. 0.7 Acres

Savills are delighted to present an exceptional and highly unique residential site of approximately 0.7 acres, set within a mature, elevated woodland setting in the heart of Crosshaven, Co. Cork.

This outstanding parcel of land offers a rare opportunity to create a truly special home in one of Cork Harbour's most desirable coastal locations. Positioned to maximise its natural elevation, the site enjoys breath-taking panoramic views over the Owenabue River, Royal Cork Yacht Club, and out towards Camden, Curabinny and the lower harbour.

Rich in character and natural beauty, the site is framed by mature oak, beech and larch trees, creating a sheltered, peaceful environment alive with wildlife including birds and red squirrels. The elevated woodland setting provides both privacy and tranquillity, while still being just a short stroll from the vibrant centre of Crosshaven.

Setting & Lifestyle

This is a site that truly offers the opportunity to "Build the Dream" — combining architectural potential with an unrivalled natural setting.

The surrounding woodland not only enhances privacy but also creates a calm microclimate, protecting the site from prevailing winds. The result is a peaceful, sun-filled environment ideal for both everyday living and outdoor recreation.

Within immediate proximity are excellent local amenities including the popular The Priory Coffee Co. and the internationally renowned Doyle Sails facility. A bus stop with shelter is located just 25 metres from the entrance, while the charming village centre is within a short walk.
