This Glorious €1.8m Cork Mansion Is One Of The Most Elegant Homes We’ve Ever Seen

mariemadden

We’ve come across plenty of beautiful houses that look great on paper but wouldn’t really float our boat when looking for a property to actually live in.

This beautiful mansion in Cork though is right up our street.

Menloe House in Blackrock is on the market for €1.8m and we’re not exaggerating when we say it might be the most elegant home we’ve ever seen.

This Georgian period property is set back from the Blackrock Road with a recessed entrance, while the detached Gate Lodge is a lovely two-bedroom detached lodge separate to the main building.
