About this property
Description
******QUALIFIES ON VACANT HOMES GRANT**** Traditional Cottage on c. 1 Acre with Breathtaking Countryside Views – A Rare Opportunity at Park Upper Stradbally” Welcome to Park Upper Stradbally —an idyllic rural retreat offering peace, privacy, and panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, including a direct vista of the historic Rock of Dunamase. Set on a generous plot of approximately one acre (outlined for illustration purposes), this charming detached cottage presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a renovation project, a country lifestyle, or a home with future development potential (subject to planning permission). The residence retains much of its original character and is laid out to include two bedrooms, a central sitting room with a feature fireplace, a large kitchen/dining area with a solid fuel stove, and a spacious wet room. Though the property would benefit from upgrading throughout, it already offers key features such as double-glazed windows, oil-fired central heating, and a solid structure—providing an ideal base for transformation. The site is a particular highlight, with a concrete yard, well-kept lawn, and mature hedging creating a private and secure setting. To the rear lies a substantial paddock area, perfect for gardening, pets, or even small-scale agriculture. Outbuildings to the side add storage or workshop potential. With peaceful rural surroundings and the convenience of local towns just a short drive away, Park Upper offers a superb blend of seclusion and accessibility. This property is just a 4 minute drive from local town Stradbally & a 13 minute drive from nearby town Portlaoise.
