Description

Knockataylor Farm is a four-bedroom detached farmhouse dating from c.1800, set on approximately three acres of mature grounds near Barntown. The house extends to around 197 sq m and was significantly upgraded and extended in 2012, when a ground-floor bedroom with en-suite and dressing room was added along with a second reception room. At the same time, the property was rewired and fitted with oil-fired central heating. The front door, a distinctive arched timber piece, opens into a hallway with a skylight overhead, setting the tone for a house full of character. The main living room is a generous space with dark wood flooring, a solid fuel stove set within a large painted brick fireplace, and French doors that open directly onto the south-facing garden. A second reception room, part of the 2012 extension, offers a more relaxed family space with its own freestanding stove and doors to the garden. The kitchen has a country feel, with painted shaker-style cabinetry, a range cooker, subway tile splashback, and original quarry tile flooring. An arched internal door connects through from the living room, and there's a staircase to the first floor. Off the kitchen there's a utility area and a ground-floor WC. The downstairs bedroom is a double with fitted wardrobes, a dressing area, French doors to the garden, and a well-finished en-suite with a walk-in shower. Upstairs there are three further bedrooms and a bathroom finished in natural stone tile with a bath, separate shower, and heated towel rail. The outbuildings add real versatility. The stable block sits beneath a clock tower and includes an oversized garage with electric opening door, a workshop, tack room, a stable with drained floor, and a gym. The granary building alongside has external stone steps to the upper level. A cobbled courtyard with period lamp posts ties everything together. The property is served by a private well with water softener fitted and a septic tank. The grounds are south-facing, largely laid to lawn with mature willows, cherry blossom, and established boundary planting, private and well sheltered without feeling closed in. Area Info: Knockataylor is a quiet rural townland in the parish of Barntown, about five kilometres south-west of Wexford town. It's the kind of area where you're genuinely in the countryside - fields, hedgerows, and not much passing traffic but still within easy reach of everything you'd need day-to-day. Wexford town is roughly a ten-minute drive and has a full range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, and services. Barntown itself has a primary school and a church, and the wider area is well served by schools at both primary and secondary level, including Good Counsel College and the Loreto in Wexford town. For commuters, Wexford Train Station is about ten minutes by car, with services running to Dublin Connolly via Rosslare, Gorey, and Arklow. The south Wexford coast is one of the area's real draws. Curracloe Beach, well known for the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan is within a short drive, and there are several other quieter beaches and coastal walks nearby. Wexford Wildfowl Reserve and the Raven Nature Reserve are close by for those who enjoy walking and birdwatching. The area has a strong sense of local community, with active GAA clubs, equestrian facilities, and a number of golf courses in the wider region, including Rosslare Golf Club. In terms of connectivity, the N25 provides good access south towards Rosslare Europort and north towards New Ross and Waterford. Dublin is roughly two hours via the M11. Broadband is available locally through Carnsore, and the area benefits from a relatively affordable property market compared to Dublin commuter counties while still offering a high quality of life.
