A magical seafront haven idyllically positioned overlooking Rosslare Strand 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 ( 5m x 5m, 25 square metres) fully insulated and double glazed windows, shower room with electric shower, wc & hand basin (1.10 m x 3.30m), a Harvia wood burning sauna, cabin (7’ x 6’) with 8’ x 8’ decking and a Willerby Vogue mobile home - 40’x 13’ / 48 sq meters, (2 beds, 1 ensuite, bathroom, kitchen, living room, fully winter proof, double glazing and galvanised chassis, wrapped with composite decking, gas central heating) that has been positioned on the site for 13 years. 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. 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. There is private access to the beach from the garden by steps down the cliff. Fibre broadband is available.

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 strand 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.
