Description

CBPM Real Estate is proud to introduce to the market this This remarkable property, known as The Old Barracks. The Old Barracks located in the Square, Rathdowney, Co. Laois, is a captivating blend of historical architecture and modern functionality. Spanning 159.7m² (1722 sq. ft.) across two floors, the interior has been thoughtfully repurposed. The ground floor, measuring 87.1m² (936 sq. ft), likely houses main functional areas, while the 72.6m² (781.46 sq. ft) upper floor may offer additional space for various purposes. The Old Barracks is a very striking, cut limestone-built Garda Barracks. Its exposed cut limestone front porch and limestone window surrounds, large plinth and corbels at gutter level give it a commanding and impressive presence at the top of the Square. The building has been extensively refurbished from a lived in Garda Barracks with separate working station to three complete self-contained office units. Each of the office units having their own office spaces, w.c.’s and separate kitchen area. The building has been completely re-roofed, sympathetically finished with natural stone slates, new UPVC sliding sash windows installed throughout the building. It has been fully re-wired and re- plumbed and benefits from a large, gated side entrance leading to an extensive south facing walled-in rear yard/garden area. This fantastic building could be put to many uses subject to planning permission from an impressive family home to an exciting business venture or even a combination of both. The interior layout reveals a mix of room sizes, including several larger open areas and smaller, more intimate spaces. The property features multiple kitchenette areas, each equipped with light wood cabinetry, stainless steel sinks, and ample counter space. Large windows throughout allow for plenty of natural light, creating bright and airy spaces. A carpeted staircase with navy blue carpeting leads to the upper floor, connecting the two levels.
