Description

Charming Cottage in a wind sheltered sun trap surrounded by forest near the top of a mountain with a deep bore gravity fed well, fruit and nut trees along with a greenhouse. DNG Declan Woulfe are delighted to present this unique rural property, set on approximately 1.1 acres in the tranquil countryside of Rooska West, Carrigkerry, Co. Limerick. Offering excellent potential for refurbishment and modernisation, this property presents an exciting opportunity for purchasers seeking a peaceful rural retreat with scope to create a home tailored to their own requirements. The house is situated a good distance from a quiet country road, enjoying a private and secluded setting surrounded by mature trees, woodland and established hedging. Located approximately 270 meters above sea level, the property benefits from a beautiful natural environment, with scenic countryside views extending towards the River Shannon, Clare and Kerry from nearby walking routes. The property requires refurbishment to bring it to a habitable standard and will appeal to purchasers with vision, including those seeking a renovation project, first-time buyers looking to modernise a traditional rural home, or those interested in a more self-sufficient or off-grid lifestyle. The grounds extend to approximately 1.1 acres and offer considerable scope for gardening, outdoor living and the enjoyment of nature. The property includes a ready-to-use greenhouse with a polycarbonate roof, which could also be adapted for use as a substantial storage shed or workshop. Established fruit and nut trees, including cherry, plum and hazelnut varieties, add further character to the grounds. The surrounding area is particularly appealing to nature lovers, with abundant birdlife and wildlife, extensive forest walks, rivers and waterfalls within walking distance. The low levels of artificial light pollution also make this an attractive location for stargazing and enjoying the night sky. The availability of firewood from willow trees on the property may offer an additional resource for purchasers interested in a more self-sufficient way of living. The property is serviced by a septic tank and a gravity-fed well, with the current owner reporting excellent water quality. Fibre-optic broadband is available at the roadside, offering potential for remote working, subject to connection availability.
