6 Gaol Road, Kilkenny, Co. Kilkenny, R95XRD1

The Gaol Road is without doubt one of Kilkenny's most central residential addresses. A five-minute stroll down Friary Street brings you straight to High Street, placing Kilkenny City Centre quite literally at your doorstep. Positioned directly across from Kilkenny Fairgreen, No. 6 enjoys an enviable location where children can play and families can embrace the convenience of city living while still having green space at hand. Schools, shops, and everyday amenities are all within easy walking distance. Originally constructed c.1935, the home is solidly built in the architectural style of its time, offering both character and reliability. The property has benefitted from upgrades over the years and is presented in good overall condition. The gated front garden with its traditional fencing and porch-style entrance creates an inviting, old-world charm. To the side, a private entrance leads to a large, fully enclosed rear garden. Boasting a perfect south-facing orientation, this garden is a true highlight—sun-filled, private, and complete with vehicular access from a nearby laneway. The proportions of No. 6 Gaol Road strike the right balance—comfortable, manageable, and highly adaptable. With properties of this scale and style once again in demand, this home offers the ideal opportunity to create a city residence that feels practical. Inside, No. 6 retains much of its original layout, complemented by a rear extension. The entrance hall greets you with its original staircase—complete with intact post, spindles and handrail—all as strong and striking as the day they were installed. The original internal door leads into the main living room, a sizeable and welcoming space featuring wall lighting and a handsome stone fireplace. Double French doors connect seamlessly to the rear kitchen/dining extension, allowing both spaces to flow together as one. The kitchen, fitted with solid units, is bright and practical—simply updating the worktops and finishes would transform it into a modern culinary space. From here, the room overlooks the private, south-facing garden, bathed in full sun and not overlooked. The first of two bathrooms are located just off the kitchen and has been tiled floor to ceiling with a corner shower fitted. Like many houses of this style, the original ground-floor bedroom remains intact, now more commonly used as a home office, playroom, or TV room. Located to the front, it benefits from an oversized window that floods the room with light. Upstairs, there are two generous double bedrooms, both bright, well-proportioned, and set back from the road, ensuring peace and quiet. One bedroom has been reconfigured to incorporate the family bathroom, cleverly designed to also allow for an ensuite or Jack-and-Jill layout if desired. The attic provides excellent storage for seasonal items. The outside space of No. 6 is a place to love. Its full south-facing orientation makes the garden usable all year round. A haven for wildlife and everything that's good about an inner-city garden, the combination of side access from the front and rear vehicular access makes it even more attractive. This is a property that has been cherished and is ready to be enjoyed by another generation. Ring Fran for a private viewing.
