17 Maiden Hill, Kells Road, Kilkenny, Co. Kilkenny, R95N2F5

Sheer presence alone ensures that Number 17 Maiden Hill stands apart as a truly special home. Constructed circa 1996 on a large, private site, this residence combines timeless design with meticulous completion, resulting in a property of rare beauty. The home presents a classic exterior, with a striking roofline, handsome brick façade, and a gated entrance that frames the approach perfectly. Set to the rear on an elevated corner site, Number 17 enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy and security within its fully enclosed grounds. The gardens are beautifully matured, with landscaping to both front and rear, complemented by a sweeping tarmacadam drive that ascends to the house. A large detached garage and store add further practicality, while the brick pillars and gated entrance complete the picture of a residence finished to perfection. Maiden Hill itself is a small, private development of just a handful of homes, celebrated for its thoughtful design and enviable location. Situated off the Kells Road, Number 17 is only a short stroll from Kilkenny City Centre, with direct pedestrian access to Cootes Lane providing easy reach to schools, shops, amenities, and local churches. Number 17 Maiden Hill is a home of substance, style, and setting - a property that must be viewed to be fully appreciated. Standing outside Number 17, the strength and elegance of its structure are immediately felt. Built to perfection, this home opens through a double entrance door to a magnificent hallway, where a bespoke split-level staircase takes centre stage. Crafted with the same artistry as a period property, this staircase is a true showpiece - teak handrail with monkey's tail detail, ornate spindles, and finely finished strings combine to create a work of art in itself. The entrance hall sets the tone, reflecting both the impeccable standard of finish and the original owner's intent to create a home of distinction. Ornate ceilings flow seamlessly throughout, enhancing the sense of timeless craftsmanship. To the left, the formal living room is a space of refinement, with French doors connecting to the rear dining room. Here, an antique fireplace, detailed ceiling work, and an oversized bay window combine to create a room that is as inviting as it is elegant. On the opposite side of the house lies the winter living room, an equally impressive space with feature lighting, another magnificent fireplace, a beautiful bay window, and ornate ceilings that complete its character. This room is finished to a standard that simply cannot be faulted. The kitchen, positioned to the rear, enjoys views over the private garden and connects directly to the formal dining space while also offering its own relaxed dining area. Original cabinetry remains in excellent condition, complemented by tiled flooring that is both practical and stylish. A generous utility room adjoins the kitchen, providing additional storage and direct access to the garden. A guest W.C. completes the ground floor accommodation with ease. The generous landing provides easy access to four substantial double bedrooms and a fully floored attic space. The main family bathroom is centrally located, tiled floor-to-ceiling, and presented in pristine condition. Each of the four bedrooms features bespoke, wall-to-wall fitted storage. The master suite is a standout, with immaculate built-in wardrobes and drawers, and a large, pristine en suite. Each bedroom is finished to showhouse standard, with flawless presentation throughout. Set on a large corner plot, Number 17 enjoys mature landscaping to the front and rear, ensuring both privacy and beauty. A large, detached garage, divided into two, provides exceptional additional storage and utility. The rear garden opens wider across the site, fully enclosed and with a private side gate leading directly onto Cootes Lane.
