The Clipper, Avila, Convent Garden, Kinsale, Cork

Savills is delighted to introduce 6 The Clipper, Avila, Convent Garden, a superb two‑bedroom duplex with an office , positioned in the very heart of Kinsale. This exceptional 122.7 sq m home forms part of the prestigious Avila collection within the beautifully restored Convent Garden development, an inspired blend of contemporary luxury and historic character. Once a landmark convent, the building has been meticulously reimagined to create a series of unique residences, each individually designed to celebrate the original architecture while offering the highest standards of modern living.

No. 6 The Clipper spans the ground and first floors, offering an impressive sense of volume enhanced by varied ceiling heights, deep-set sash windows, and the rich texture of the original structure. The standout feature is the dramatic mezzanine living space, a striking room that captures wonderful natural light and creates an exceptional atmosphere for both everyday living and entertaining. The layout has been thoughtfully planned, with two generous double bedrooms, an office, beautifully finished bathrooms and large south facing balcony, making it ideal for those seeking a stylish full‑time home or a refined coastal retreat.
Craftsmanship throughout the home is of exceptional calibre. The Italian‑designed Arrital kitchen features ceramic worktops, integrated appliances, and refined finishes, while bespoke Molteni&C wardrobes elevate each bedroom. Bathrooms are appointed with premium Italian and Spanish sanitaryware, marbled basins, slate shower trays, and designer tiles, creating calm, luxurious spaces. Engineered timber flooring, Signature sash windows, and discreet Linvisibile doors further enhance the interior aesthetic. Comfort is ensured by an energy‑efficient Daikin heat‑pump system, with underfloor heating at ground level, low‑temperature radiators above, and continuous fresh air supplied through mechanical ventilation—contributing to the home’s excellent A‑rated energy performance.
Externally, residents enjoy both private and communal outdoor space. The south‑facing balcony off the master bedroom offers superb room for dining and entertaining. Beautifully landscaped communal gardens feature granite pathways, raised planters, and elegant lighting, framed by the distinctive bronze‑toned grid walling of the courtyard. Secure parking is provided in the adjacent under‑canopy car park, with convenient pedestrian access to The Ramparts and the town centre.

Set just a short stroll from Kinsale’s vibrant streets, gourmet restaurants, marina, and cultural attractions, No. 6 The Clipper offers an unrivalled lifestyle opportunity. Kinsale’s rich maritime heritage, international festivals, Michelin‑star dining, and proximity to Cork City and Airport make it one of Ireland’s most desirable coastal towns. This remarkable duplex captures the very best of that setting—heritage, design, and location—brought together in a home of rare quality and distinction.

This property will appeal to a wide range of buyers, including those trading down to a low‑maintenance, high‑quality home, those looking to relocate to this exceptional coastal location, and purchasers seeking to trade up to a premium residence in one of Ireland’s most sought‑after towns.
