Sherry FitzGerald Crowley are proud to bring to the market a truly unique property. St Catherine’s is a former Church of Ireland church built circa 1800 and converted in 2006 into a substantial family home of immense character.
The property was retired from use as a church circa 1990 and its conversion was architecturally overseen to an exceptional standard. Built of limestone, the property successfully blends the old and new to create a comfortable and atmospheric residence. Some of St Catherine’s exceptional features include Egyptian sandstone flagstone tiling throughout the ground floor, an original stained glass window in the kitchen/ dining room which was sensitively restored by local artist Linda Grieve/Mulloy and some of the original flagstone flooring.
The floor area measures approximately 432.9 sq m/4,660 sq ft over three stories. Ground floor accommodation comprises of entrance hall, living room, sitting room, substantial kitchen/dining room with raised dining area and overhead dome, utility, office/study and shower room. On the first floor there is a large library/sitting room, seven bedrooms (three en-suite) and a family bathroom. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are both single rooms which could easily be converted to one larger bedroom. On the third floor there is a very substantial master bedroom suite with walk-in wardrobe and en-suite. There is also an additional substantial room which could suit as an office or workroom.
The secluded gardens are surrounded by stone walls and mature trees and shrubs. A paved courtyard to the side and a rear patio have been created using some of the original flagstones from the church. The is also a small lawn area, a gravel driveway providing ample parking and stone sheds (9.0m x 3.75m).
The property’s entrance driveway is shared with a small graveyard with access provided to those visiting/caretaking family graves.
The property is located in the centre of Newport town accessed from Main Street by Church Lane. Newport is an attractive small town set on the Newport River at the mouth of Clew Bay. The town’s amenities include primary school, shops, restaurants, bars and hotel. It has many leisure facilities on its doorstep including Newport Harbour and the Great Western Greenway walking/cycling trail which runs from Westport to Achill Island.
