Colum O’Sullivan, co-founder of food brand Cully & Sully, has put his Georgian seaside home in Cork on the market for €4.9 million.
Affeen is an early 18th century private residence in Kinsale that is any watersports enthusiast’s dream as it comes with its own two-story dock and pier.
However, there is planning permission to renovate and change the use of the harbor, and it could be an amazing guest house.

The 550-square-meter property was purchased by O’Sullivan in 2013 with his wife Joan after selling Cully & Sully to US giant Hain Celestial.
O’Sullivan and his business partner Cullen Allen still run the company out of Cork, and in addition to their own branded soups and pies, they also oversee food brands like Hartley’s jelly and Linda McCartney’s vegetarian group.
The food entrepreneur bought the house for 1.3 million euros in 2013 and told The Irish Times that a massive amount of renovations had been made to the 1860s home.
