Set amidst the rolling countryside of Tynock, Kiltegan, this charming two-bedroom detached former teacher's residence is a property of rare character and historical significance, beautifully blending period charm with thoughtful modern refurbishment. Lovingly restored by the current owners over the past four years, the home has been sympathetically upgraded to preserve its original appeal while introducing the comforts expected for modern living. The refurbishment works include complete rewiring and the installation of elegant double-glazed sash windows, carefully chosen to remain in keeping with the heritage and architectural style of the property. The result is a cosy, and inviting home that retains the timeless charm of its origins.
