Description
New Quay Real Estate is very excited to bring to the market this exceptional, unique and truly gorgeous two storey four-to-five-bedroom family home and extensive stand-alone one and a half storey garage on an immaculate and manicured mature site of 0.82 acres in the coveted coastal location of Mountscribe on the Atlantic coast just minutes from the beautiful harbour village of Kinvara. This outstanding and substantial residence, extending to circa 200 sqm, presents in pristine turn-key condition and comprises residential accommodation built to the highest of standards given the structures and grounds were developed with meticulous precision by a well renowned family in the construction industry for their own use. This, the most inviting of facades in a split-floor aesthetic, is delivered by a masterful combination of expert limestone masonry adorned with beautiful climbing plants and flowers, golden oak effect composite doors and windows with matching fascia on a pure white background, sage cladding and matching front door, all under a striking natural style slate roof. On entering this fabulous home, one is immediately struck with a stylish elegance while remaining warm and inviting which together can be rare and somewhat difficult to achieve. The beautiful light filled spacious hall connects to the entire ground floor and presents in neutral colours with recessed spot lighting and a gorgeous, reclaimed Scot’s Pine solid wood floor underfoot. A large window sits at the foot of the solid wood stairs to the upper floor and mezzanine style substantial landing with three additional east facing double casement windows. Together this dual height barn-style configuration affords excellent space and light and creates a very attractive transition between the ground and first floor accommodation. In fact, throughout the residence clever use of positioning and aspect has been implemented to capitalise on the position of the sun over the various stages of the day to match the designated uses of each of the living zones. The fabulous country-style kitchen, spanning the entire width of the house, is flooded with natural light from the east facing fully glazed French doors, two south facing double casement windows and a large west facing casement over the sink and drainer. The two oven two hot plate oil-fired Classic Edition Aga cooker is complimented by directional spot-lighting and twin adjacent storage cupboards with black marble capping that sits flawlessly flush with the cast iron range. Added to this is the integrated gas hob, grill and oven so the chefs in the family will be spoiled for choice. Copious storage options and teak countertop prep surfaces are incorporated within the fully fitted cream coloured cabinetry along with seamlessly integrated fridge-freezer, dish washer and larder. Just off the kitchen is a bright utility with exterior access affording yet more than ample storage with sink and drainer, floor to ceiling cabinetry and plenty of space for washer/dryers. Adjacent is the hot press with large capacity insulated hot water tank, back boiler option to the Aga, access to the heating pipe infrastructure and floor to ceiling airing cupboard. Back to the main hall and through the part-glazed solid wood double doors is the oh so cozy sitting room the focal point of which is a beautiful cast iron solid fuel stove on black marble hearth. The tasteful dark teal décor contrasts beautifully with the exposed knots and grain in the Scot’s Pine solid wood floor which continues from the hall. Two sets of French doors with additional floor to ceiling centre light give direct access to the back garden and spectacular sunsets over the Burren Mountains. A further picture window located in the reveal left of the fireplace is yet another sweet little touch. Adjacent is the second sitting room finished to the same exceptional standard including the fabulous flooring. The gas fed fireplace with ornate cast iron surround and deep recesses for storage at either side act as a centre point. The dual aspect room benefits from an abundance of natural light from three double windows which would be of great benefit for those intending to use as an office or creative workspace. In fact, it has the scope to be utilised for a multitude of uses such as a fifth bedroom for an elderly family member or a wheelchair user. A strategically positioned WC with cream Italian porcelain floors tiles, part mosaic back splash and elegant ceramicware completes the ground floor accommodation. Similarly, the first floor living quarters do not disappoint in fact bar the main bathroom and ensuite the entire floor presents with the beautiful reclaimed solid wood throughout. The aforementioned bright and tasteful extensive landing and open plan mezzanine hall incorporates multiple facets including a reading nook, space for a large cabinet without compromising circulation, a library and a catwalk gallery landing. The extensive master bedroom presents in beautiful décor and has plenty of space for a king size bed and all the necessary storage requirements. A handy recess contains vanity furniture without compromising circulation space and a substantial walk-in wardrobe provides ample storage for a couple. Beautiful views over the rear garden, unspoilt landscape and Burren mountains can be fully appreciated. A bright and airy tastefully decorated ensuite with porcelain tiled floor, mosaic backsplash and large Aquastream pumped shower further compliment this superb master. The family bathroom incorporates a full standalone bath with matching tile surround and a large walk-in custom-built shower all finished in a tasteful neutral palette. Three additional sizeable bedrooms of exceptionally high calibre finish, lighting, views and comfort (two capable of a triple setup) complete this amazing offering. When it comes to the exterior of this very special property there are multiple facets that further elevate its prestige and allure. The garage/workshop presents in the same quality construction as the main house with a gorgeous Limestone façade with flawlessly integrated arch and keystone over the roller door access, golden oak composite windows with matching fascia and natural style slate roof. The structure benefits from four double casement windows along with two large Velux roof lights and separate door access. The substantial steel frame supports loft accommodation with the entire ripe for conversion to additional living accommodation given its ridge height, footprint and ideal proximity to the septic tank and percolation area SPP. Further attributes in addition to the vast storage space include a central vacuum system which connects to the main house, multiple power points and a painted concrete floor. Both main structures are perfectly positioned amid expertly landscaped grounds which include an array of mature tree and plant species, a fruit garden, a fire pit, lots of hidden nooks and crannies and a south-facing patio and al fresco dining area. The clever layout of the curved dry stone boundary wall, entrance and strategically planted tree line obscures the house from passing traffic and walkers-by to afford privacy for the ultimate enjoyment of the site. Given the positioning of the house, adjacent properties and sight lines we would expect that residential construction in the immediate vicinity including directly opposite will not be granted from a planning perspective which would allow this property to retain it's lush green surroundings without fear of compromise. If all that wasn’t enough to tick the many boxes for a wide range of buyers and their needs the exceptional location in an area of outstanding natural beauty can only be truly appreciated in the flesh. This stunning section of County Galway’s coastline, where the unique and majestic Burren Mountains meet the mighty Atlantic, offers a range of amazing natural amenities that most of us could only dream of having on our doorstep. The peninsula is a mecca for walkers and cyclists with intertwining roads of little traffic and a new spectacular vista around every turn. Just minutes in any direction will bring you to a different part of the coastline from Traught Beach, Aughinish, Parkmore pier and the beautiful harbour village of Kinvara to name a very few all within walking distance. Kinvara has some fantastic pubs and eateries and everything you might need for the day to day. For everything else the town of Gort has lots of additional amenities and is less than a twenty-minute drive. We believe this to be one of the best locations on the Wild Atlantic Way for both its unique scenic beauty and unrivalled access to all the major cities of Ireland, equidistant from Limerick and Galway and a straight run east to Dublin. While other locations on the Wild Atlantic Way such as Donegal and West Cork are without question beautiful, they do not have the same convenience of proximity to principal national infrastructure.
