Description

This substantial detached property in Clarahill, Clonaslee, Co. Laois (Eircode R32 X6C3) was originally home to the well-known village business “Gaffney’s Shop”. Built around 1950, it offers approximately 178 m² of accommodation and sits on freehold Folio LS3543, which includes the house and c.0.99 hectares. It is also being offered with a further c.2.52 hectares on Folio LS11363, land previously used for corn harvesting. Together, the property extends to just over 3.5 hectares (circa 8.6 acres), providing an exceptional landholding in a village setting. The accommodation has excellent potential for modernisation. The ground floor includes an entrance hall, kitchen/diner, living room with open fire, a downstairs bedroom, and a former shop unit that could suit a variety of future uses. The first floor comprises three double bedrooms and a main bathroom. There is also a separate garage, an outdoor W.C., and a 10’ x 8’ garden shed. The property benefits from its own private septic tank and private well. Outside, the property enjoys private side and rear gardens along with extensive surrounding lands, offering endless possibilities for redevelopment, farming, or recreational use. While the house requires repair, its size, layout, and large land parcel create a strong opportunity for a buyer seeking a project with significant upside. Clonaslee provides a peaceful rural-village environment with direct access to nature. Located at the foothills of the Slieve Bloom Mountains, it offers beautiful scenery, forest trails, and outdoor amenities on its doorstep, ideal for anyone seeking tranquillity and a slower pace of life while still remaining connected to nearby towns. The property is conveniently positioned just 6 km from Rosenallis and approximately 12 km from Mountmellick, ensuring essential services and larger town facilities are within easy reach. Viewings by appointment only.
