Incredible Cork home and castle back on the market with €200k price drop
Last year, when we showed off the truly remarkable Carrigacunna Castle in Cork, it had a price tag of €2.7million — and for good reason.
The home, which boasts an incredible five bedrooms, three reception rooms, a home spa and pool, and of course, a literal watch tower, Carrigacunna is still on the market; but this time around, has a price tag of €2.5million. Bargain!
The property has a rich history behind it, also; Originally built in the 1800s next to a 16th-century Norman tower house, the tower house was owned by the Nagle family, which included Sir Richard Nagle served as private secretary to King James II, who reportedly spent a night at the tower.
