Merton Villa, Merton Square, Kilkee, Co. Clare, V15R718

A truly unique opportunity to acquire a substantial residence in the west end of the seaside resort of Kilkee, a town that has just been declared as Ireland's top hidden gem by Lonely Planet. The property is located in Merton Square just 150 metres from the famous horseshoe beach that has been a favourite with tourists and locals for generations. The property has been vacant for a number of years and would qualify for vacancy grants (for qualifying applicants, subject to terms and conditions). The property itself retains many of the charming period features of the era of build including Georgian Style door and fanlight, high ceilings, decorative ceiling coving and ornate architraves and skirting to mention a few. Merton Villa itself originally formed part of the famous Hydro Hotel that dates back to the 19th century. Merton Square was initially laid out in the 1840's with the remaining parts of the square including Merton Villa constructed thereafter. The property is just 150m from the beach which is lifeguarded during the summer months and is regarded as one of the best and safest bathing locations on Ireland’s west coast. The property is just a short walk to the town centre and the wide range of amenities it has to offer including bars, restaurants, cafes, library and Cultúrlann Sweeney Arts Centre in addition to the miles of coastline and cliff walks in the area. The property benefits from a side access gate, leading to the rear gardens which is accessed over an established right of way from the public road.
