Ballynona House is a magnificent circa 1893 period residence offering approximately 4,850 square feet of living space set upon 5 acres of secluded East Cork countryside. Accessed via an impressive tree-lined driveway, the property provides complete privacy while remaining just a 10-minute drive from the thriving town of Midleton and 25 minutes from Cork City. The estate features an attached rear garage, a generous parking forecourt, and independent services including a private well, a bio-cycle unit, and oil-fired central heating. While ready for its next chapter, this D2-rated home presents an exciting opportunity for likely renovation works to ensure comfortable family living for decades to come.

Spanning three floors, the architecturally charming interior boasts seven generous bedrooms, multiple en-suites, and grand ground-floor living spaces that include a formal dining room, a study with a multi-fuel stove, and a drawing room featuring a cast-iron marble fireplace. Historic details like cornice ceilings, refurbished wooden sash windows, and limestone entrance steps are beautifully complemented by a bright 2004 kitchen and dining extension. This modern vaulted-ceiling space is finished with exposed timber beams, underfloor heating, a premium Six-Four Aga, and French doors that open to a south-facing patio, perfectly blending period elegance with modern functionality.
