A magical seafront haven idyllically positioned overlooking Rosslare Stand and the Irish Sea. Sandymount is a quaint cottage set within extremely private gardens extending to 0.52 acre (0.21 hectare) and with panoramic sea views.
Built in 1927 as a coastal holiday haven the cottage extends to 753 square feet (70 square metres) and has a truly rustic charm. Facing east directly onto the sea the current configuration comprises a living room, den, kitchen, sun porch, two bedrooms and a bathroom. There are two open fireplaces. It is augmented by a chalet studio cabin, a sauna cabin and a mobile home that has been positioned static on the site for since circa 2012. The chalet studio cabin faces directly to the sea and is cosy. It has a shower room, is fully insulated and has double glazed windows. The sauna cabin enjoys direct sea views and has a Harvia wood sauna stove. The mobile home is a Willerby Vogue model and has gas central heating, is winterised, has double glazed windows, a galvanised chassis and an outside deck in composite timber.
The entire has combined as a family seaside resort and artists haven in recent years and represents a perfect canvas to create a modern coastal retreat, based on granted permissions nearby. Combined the cottage, sauna cabin, chalet studio cabin and static mobile home comprise circa 1,595 square feet or 148.2 square metres in total. Fibre broadband connection available.
Given the seafront position of the cottage, chalet and sauna the gardens feel a very generous half-acre. The bay front benefits from substantial stone armament and is protected with mature planting. Hidden at the end of the quiet Cliff Road the position Sandymount enjoys is truly magical, within easy strolling distance of the village centre and the beach stand itself and yet enjoying private tranquillity. Kelly’s Resort Hotel and Spa is a 10-minute walk with notable pubs and restaurants in between, the nearest pub being Redmond’s ‘The Bay’ pub that is about a sober 2-minute walk. Immediate amenities include shops, restaurants, hotels, a golf course, church and school and, of course, the noted Rosslare Strand Blue Flag Beach and the myriad water activities the sea provides. Rosslare Strand train station is within walking distance and links Rosslare to Dublin (current weekday services from 5:40am with a last return 5:33pm). Rosslare Europort and Harbour is a 10-minute drive with passenger ferry services to Britain, France and Spain. Wexford harbour town is a 15-minute drive. Dublin city centre and Dublin international airport are each a 1-hour 45 minutes’ drive. Waterford airport is a 1-hour drive.

Whilst rustic Sandymount has an evocative charm and the vistas are remarkable, sunrises immediately in front and backlit dusks sparking moonlight on the sea.
