About this property
Description
Enjoying an elevated position between the townlands Paulstown and Castlewarren, this deceptive 3 bedroom detached home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a property rich in character, charm and future potential. Extending to approximately 130 sq. m (1,399 sq. ft), the residence has been thoughtfully enhanced over the years, blending original features with practical modern additions. The accommodation is well-proportioned and versatile, complemented by a dual heating system with private water and waste water connections. The heart of this home is a warm and inviting open plan dining/living space, featuring exposed timber beams, a solid fuel stove, and an all important Aga, creating a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. A mezzanine level adds further character and flexibility to the living space. The adjoining utility is functional and well-equipped, while both bathroom and shower room facilities provide convenience for family living. There are three generously sized bedrooms (one on ground floor), including a master with en-suite, each offering comfortable accommodation with pleasant views over the surrounding countryside. Set on a substantial circa.1.28-acre site, the property is enveloped by mature boundaries, ensuring exceptional privacy and a peaceful setting. The expansive grounds present endless opportunities for gardening, outdoor entertaining, or simply enjoying the natural surroundings. A standout feature of this property is the inclusion of two original derelict stone houses and other stone outbuildings, offering excellent potential for restoration or adaptation as studio space, workshops, or additional storage—ideal for creatives, hobbyists, or those seeking a smallholding lifestyle or for the considerable further-development potential. . Despite its idyllic rural setting, the property benefits from excellent accessibility, located just a 5-minute drive from the M9 motorway, providing convenient connections to Kilkenny, Carlow, and beyond. This unique home will appeal to buyers seeking a blend of heritage, tranquillity, and opportunity, whether as a full-time residence, countryside retreat, or lifestyle property with scope to further enhance and develop, subject to relevant planning laws. Viewing is highly recommended and strictly by appointment.
