The Stone Kelly, Corloughan, Piltown, Co. Kilkenny, E32WK77

Brophy Cusack are delighted to present this charming and extended hand-cut stone Bessborough cottage, superbly positioned in the peaceful setting of Corloughan, Piltown, Co. Kilkenny. Ideally situated just a short drive from Carrick-on-Suir and Waterford City, this beautiful home offers the perfect blend of countryside tranquillity and convenient access to a wide range of local amenities. Upon arrival, prospective purchasers will immediately appreciate the warm and inviting atmosphere that has been lovingly created by the current owners. The accommodation is both well laid out and generously proportioned, having been tastefully refurbished and extended in 2012. The ground floor comprises an entrance porch, lobby, study, and a large open-plan kitchen/dining/living area — an oasis of natural light that forms the heart of the home — together with a utility room and bathroom. The first floor hosts three spacious bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom. During the renovation, the property benefited from a significant rear extension, new windows and doors, complete rewiring and replumbing, and the installation of a contemporary kitchen, among many other thoughtful upgrades. Despite these modern enhancements, the cottage retains much of its original charm, with features such as exposed hand-cut stone walls, original timber beams, and other characterful period details. The property is connected to mains water and a septic tank and features a dual-fuel heating system, incorporating both an oil-fired boiler and a solid fuel back boiler stove, in addition to a standalone solid fuel stove. Externally, the residence is approached via a pea gravel driveway framed by original stone boundary walls and wrought iron gates. The gardens are enclosed by post-and-rail fencing and include a private patio area — perfect for outdoor relaxation. One of the standout features of this wonderful property is the impressive 490 sq. ft. stone-built outbuilding, offering superb potential for a variety of uses such as a workshop, studio, or even additional living accommodation (subject to planning permission or local authority exemption).
