#WATERFRONT PROPERTY - A six-bedroom period house with superb south-facing views over Cork Harbour is now on the market for €550,000.

Whitegate House dates from the late 18th century and comes complete with a stone yard and outbuildings, a basement, around three acres of woodland and its own private pier.

The original property was built before 1780 and embellished over the years, and now presents a pleasant four-bay house with bright and spacious accommodation.

In recent years the house has benefited from substantial structural renovations and is now presented in a comfortable condition throughout.

The property has elegant formal reception rooms comprising a drawing room and sitting room to the front and a fine dining room to the rear.

A comfortable modern kitchen with all mod cons has a door to a rear hallway leading to the basement which features a laundry room, utility room and guest toilet.

Upstairs there are six bedrooms, some with original fireplaces, as well as a toilet and bathroom.

Viewing of Whitegate House is strictly by appointment only with Hegarty Properies. Full details of the property are available HERE.

About the J24 keelboat

American Rod Johnstone designed the J/24, a one-design boat, in the mid-1970s.

Since 1977, it has been manufactured and at present, at least 5,500 hulls have been constructed throughout the globe.

The J/24 has significantly contributed to the popularity of competitive sailing, and numerous internationally recognised racing personalities have won international J/24 championships.

This class still thrives and remains a favourite among owners and crews of all levels.
