Garden Cottage, Cloneygowan, Clonygowan, Co. Offaly, R35HA22

LS Properties – Your Home is Our Office - Nestled in the heart of the picturesque village of Clonygowan, Garden Cottage is a charming two-bedroom semi-detached cottage extending to approximately 55 sq. m., offering a rare opportunity to acquire a character-filled home on an exceptionally generous site of approximately one-third of an acre. Occupying a prominent position on the main Portarlington–Tullamore Road, this delightful property combines the charm of traditional cottage living with outstanding potential for further enhancement and extension (subject to the necessary planning permission), while still retaining an expansive, private garden. The accommodation is bright and welcoming throughout. The spacious sitting room forms the heart of the home, featuring a solid fuel stove and windows to both the front and rear, allowing natural light to flood the room throughout the day. The property further comprises two well-proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a cosy rear kitchen. The current owner has already commenced a programme of renovations, including the installation of new external doors and high-performance triple-glazed windows, providing an excellent foundation for the next owner to continue modernising this charming home. Additional features include solid fuel central heating and convenient off-street parking. One of Garden Cottage's most impressive features is its magnificent garden. Set on approximately one-third of an acre, the mature grounds provide exceptional privacy and enjoy all-day sunshine, creating a true sun trap. Bursting with colourful wildflowers, the garden offers a peaceful retreat while presenting endless possibilities for landscaping, gardening enthusiasts, or future expansion. The location is equally appealing. Clonygowan is a welcoming village centred around a beautiful village green, located directly opposite the property, providing an idyllic setting for relaxing walks and enjoying sunny afternoons. The local primary school is just a two-minute walk away, while the village pub adds to the strong sense of community and village charm. Despite its peaceful setting, Garden Cottage enjoys excellent connectivity. Portarlington is approximately 7 km away, while Tullamore is approximately 19 km away, both offering an extensive range of amenities including secondary schools, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, shopping centres, train services, cinema facilities, healthcare services, and a wide selection of sporting and recreational facilities. Garden Cottage presents an exceptional opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers, investors, or anyone seeking the tranquillity of country village living with the convenience of nearby towns. With its generous site, beautiful gardens, ongoing upgrades and enormous potential, this is a property that must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
