There is a purpose-built stone barbecue area and a detached garage (6m x 4.25m.

The two-bedroom detached dwelling was constructed about five years after the main house. It features kitchen/diner, utility space, living room, wet room, and toilet on the ground floor. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms (one with ensuite) and an attic room. This detached residence has its own new condenser oil boiler and electricity.

It has its own garden area to the rear.

‘Kilmore House itself offers the next owner flexibility. It may suit certain family situations having a separate detached residence,’ said selling agent Mark Kelly.

Bus stops are around half a kilometre away, at Convent Road and Clonakilty Hospital, travelling to Cork and Skibb. The house has a C1 Ber rating.
