SCHULL POINT

Colla Road, Schull, West Cork, P81 FH98

H Property and Savills are honoured to present Schull Point, an extraordinary private waterfront residence occupying one of the most captivating coastal settings in West Cork.

Set on approximately 1.7 acres with almost 200 metres of dramatic coastline frontage, Schull Point is a rare and remarkable coastal holding with direct shoreline access, a private pier and panoramic views across Schull Harbour towards Long Island, Castle Island, Horse Island and beyond.

Positioned along the sheltered waters surrounding Schull Harbour within the renowned West Cork and Fastnet sailing region, this exceptional property combines privacy, natural beauty and direct interaction with the sea in a manner seldom found along the Irish coastline.

Originally constructed in the 1960’s, Schull Point is an architect-designed residence extending to approximately 277 sq.m / 2,990 sq.ft. The house has been carefully positioned within the landscape to maximise natural light, privacy and the spectacular waterfront setting, with extensive glazing and generous terraces orientated towards the ever-changing coastal panorama.

Approached via a gently descending tree-lined driveway, the sense of arrival at Schull Point is immediate. As the site gradually opens towards the water, the dramatic nature of the setting becomes increasingly apparent, with uninterrupted harbour views and a striking rocky shoreline wrapping around the property.

The grounds themselves are truly exceptional. Mature trees and sheltered pathways weave through the site, leading to a number of private seating and viewing areas positioned to capture the spectacular coastal surroundings. A pathway with rope and rail balustrade leads directly to the water’s edge, where a private pier and fixed stair access provide a unique opportunity for sea swimming, boating, kayaking and direct water access from the property itself.

The sheltered cove and private pier create an ideal environment for maritime enthusiasts, with the potential to moor a yacht or leisure craft directly adjacent to the residence. Waterfront holdings with this level of direct sea interaction are exceptionally rare within West Cork.

Internally, the accommodation is bright, spacious and almost entirely focused towards the sea. The main reception areas enjoy uninterrupted water views through large picture windows, creating a constant connection with the surrounding coastline.

The accommodation briefly comprises a welcoming reception area, large open plan living / dining room, kitchen, study, utility room and guest wc at ground floor level. Upstairs there are five bright bedrooms, all enjoying sea views, together with two en-suite bathrooms and a main family bathroom. The principal bedroom suite enjoys direct access to a private terrace area overlooking the harbour, while a further balcony accessed from the landing provides an exceptional outdoor entertaining and viewing space.

While the property would benefit from modernisation and enhancement, Schull Point offers an extraordinary platform for the creation of one of the most special waterfront homes along the West Cork coastline.

Schull itself is widely regarded as one of Ireland’s premier coastal destinations, renowned for its vibrant harbour atmosphere, sailing culture, excellent restaurants, artisan cafés and exceptional natural beauty. The village enjoys a unique balance of year-round activity and relaxed coastal living, attracting Irish and international visitors alike.

The surrounding West Cork coastline is among the most spectacular in Ireland, with nearby destinations including Ballydehob, Goleen, Crookhaven, Baltimore, Barleycove and Mizen Head all contributing to the area’s strong international reputation. The wider region has become increasingly sought after for its combination of boating, swimming, sailing, food culture, creative community and understated luxury lifestyle.

Despite its remarkable sense of privacy and retreat, Schull village is just approximately 2 km away, while Cork City and Cork Airport remain accessible for both domestic and international travel.

Schull Point represents a truly irreplaceable coastal holding — combining dramatic natural beauty, direct shoreline access and one of the most exceptional waterfront settings to come to the West Cork market in recent years.
