Welcome

Welcome to The Cedars Close at Lackenroe, Glounthaune.

A new development of luxury ‘A’ rated homes, located on the edge of Cork City with access to all major transport routes in Cork.

Perched on a south-facing hillside, The Cedars Close boasts sweeping views of Cork Harbour and the wetlands and moors landscape, which overlook the renowned bird sanctuary of Harpers Wetland.

This development of 3 and 4 bed detached and semi-detached houses in the idyllic village of Glounthaune perfectly combines the tranquillity of country living with prime connectivity to all major road, rail, air and sea hubs, at the midpoint between Cork city and Midleton.

Location

Built on the north shore of Cork Harbour, an estuary of the River Lee, Glounthaune is a thriving village rich in history. Originally built as a commuter town between Cork City and East Cork, Glounthaune has since become one of the most desirable residential addresses in the city.

The serene village is framed by native cedar trees, conifers and the estuary of the River Lee, offering a tranquil and peaceful lifestyle. It is home to Harper’s Island wetland, a nature reserve and refuge for local and international birds, and is a local hotspot for nature walks and bird watching.

Glounthaune offers residents a contemporary lifestyle, perfectly harmonising suburban and city living. Locals and visitors to the village can enjoy freshly baked goods from the famous Fitzpatricks Foodstore, while two local eateries; The Elm Tree and The Rising Tide offer delectable meals using locally sourced ingredients.

Glounthaune also benefits from a well developed transport network made up of direct rail and road routes to the thriving Cork City (15 mins) and surrounding areas.

Established bus routes pass through Glounthaune with stops at the train station and the Sacred Heart Church at the centre of the village. Residents and guests of The Cedars Close enjoy a short walk to the Sacred heart Church bus stop (8 mins) where they have direct routes to Cork City and the wider areas of East Cork, stretching as far as the picturesque fishing village of Ballycotton.

Both Kent Station and Cork Airport are a short drive away, while the M8 Dublin-Cork motorway, the N20 Cork-Limerick road and the N25 Cork-Waterford road are all easily accessed from the ideal location.
