Captivating 5-bed Period Home with immaculate gardens in Cork City Montenotte House, built 1832 is one of the most historic homes in Cork city. Just off Lovers Walk, the southerly views from the triple bay fronted home are spectacular, taking in large stretches east and west of The River Lee. Once home to Cork' s merchant princes, Montenotte is one of the most affluent areas of Cork city known for its Georgian and Victorian architecture, perfect for a blend of city living with a more relaxed and upmarket atmosphere. Just off Lover' s Walk this wonderful homes sits on a stunning and immaculately kept site. The triple arched modest front facade with Georgian hall door gives only a hint of what you might find behind. Stepping in to the entrance hall, you immediately realise this one is special. Struck by an abundance of archways, corniced ceilings, this double height entrance features a wide staircase with solid wood balustrade and iron spindles leads down to the hallway at upper ground level where two beautifully proportioned rooms featuring marble fireplaces and original ornate cornicing are located. The family room has an original glazed door access to the garden. Also on this level is the kitchen with south facing views over the stunning gardens and the southern city suburbs. Montenotte and St Lukes offer an abundance of local eateries and bars while the Victorian Quarter only 10 minutes walk away offers the most vibrant and eclectic mix of restaurants, shops, and bars in Cork city. Locally the Panorama & Rooftop Bistro & Terrace at the Montenotte Hotel is within a few minutes walk. Secondary schools in the area include Christian Brothers, St Angelas and Scoil Mhuire with a number of local primary schools, creches and playschools. At lower ground level an original quarry tiled floored hallway leads to bedroom 5, utility room, wine cellar, storerooms and outside to the sheltered terrace. At first floor level the large landing opens to three bedrooms and the main bathroom. Step in to the master bedroom' s deep bay window for some of the best views from the property. The ensuite features a roll top cast iron bath. Bedroom 2 and 3 both have harbour views while the main bathroom has an enclosed bath and separate shower. The top floor incorporates bedroom 4 with its own separate wc and whb. The gardens exude evidence of long term tender care and are protected by a Cork Sandstone wall. The soil is acid and its specimen plants include Azaleas, Rhododendrons, Hydrangeas including a climbing Hydrangea on the east side of the house. Agave plants thrive here as well as some Dicksonias. A stunning feature is a line of Irish Yew trees planted in an herbaceous border adjoining a gravel path in the middle garden. The picce de resistance is a 200 year old Copper Beech tree, all of this to be viewed from the sunny picture perfect terrace.
