Co Cork €1.775m: A fine Georgian house in a tranquil setting in Co Cork will tempt buyers in the market for a genuine slice of country life. Springfort, Kanturk, Co Cork,which is set on 50 acres comes to the market through Ganly Walters with an asking price of €1.775 million.

Built in the early 1700s, Springfort has been in the same family for over 100 years and has been lovingly cared for. A solid and well-proportioned home, it has an elegant old world charm.

The house has been beautifully maintained in its original Georgian condition, but it's likely that new owners may choose to install the now almost obligatory super modern kitchen and chic bathroom. With over 371sq m (4,000 sq ft) of living space, accommodation includes a morning room, charming drawingroom and bright dining room. There are four generous bedrooms, a wine cellar and a study.

Springfort's setting is full of romantic charm. There is a walled garden with an orchard. Limestone pillars lead to a walled stable yard, with 11 stables, and a coach house yard. There is also an impressive bell tower above the main coach house.
