A 19th-century house in West Cork that once comprised six coastguard cottages is now on the market for €1.95 million.
As the Irish Examiner reports, Rocket House — named for the lifesaving rocket launch that once stood on the grounds — sits in the picturesque environs of Castletownshend on ‘Ireland’s Riviera’.
And it comes at a bargain price for this class of property, as it previously sold to overseas buyers for more than €3.5 million.
That’s quite a deal for a house whose history includes rescues from the Lusitania among other notable disasters off a notorious stretch of coastline.
The Irish Examiner has much more on the home and its history HERE.
