Meeting The Brief

This spectacular property offers modern luxury alongside incredible views.

This stunning single-storey property is nestled at the foothills of Mount Gabriel in Schull, West Cork. Built on land adjacent to where the owner, his father and grandfather had all grown-up, the retreat – Skyros – was designed by award-winning architect Niall McLaughlin. A modern-day masterpiece, the building is crafted from poured concrete and clad entirely in Irish Kilkenny Limestone and fuses modern architecture with minimalist style. The floor-to-ceiling glass windows allow the landscape to echo throughout the clean interiors, exhibiting stunning south-facing views over Roaringwater Bay and its collection of islands.
