Description
Recognising the quality of this property's location and its established residential address is only second to the exceptional potential this wonderful home presents. No. 1 Greenfields occupies a prominent corner site, offering generous space and flexibility for further development. The property currently benefits from planning permission to extend and redevelop, with a considered design approach that allows the project to be completed in one, two, or three phases, making it equally attractive to owner-occupiers or investors seeking a staged development opportunity. A particularly appealing feature of the site is its dual access: pedestrian access from the Freshford Road, adjacent to St. Canice’s School, and vehicular access via Riverside Drive, enhancing both convenience and future layout possibilities. The location is a key strength, with a choice of well-regarded schools nearby, Kilkenny City Centre within comfortable walking distance, and St. Luke’s Hospital also close at hand. This combination of a mature residential setting, excellent connectivity, and clear development potential truly highlights the uniqueness of No. 1 Greenfields Road and its outstanding position within the city. No. 1 Greenfields is a well-proportioned three-bedroom semi-detached residence with the added benefit of an attached garage, private off-street parking, and garden space to the front, side, and rear. This is a location whose quality should not be underestimated—quietly established, consistently desirable, and offering a sense of assurance that comes from thoughtful planning and long-term residential appeal. The property enjoys close proximity to the River Nore Linear Walkway, a superb local amenity providing scenic, year-round access to riverside walks and outdoor recreation, all within easy reach of the home. Constructed circa 1975, the development reflects the strengths of its era, with generous spacing between houses, wide roads, and well-defined footpaths—features that continue to resonate throughout Greenfields and contribute to its enduring popularity. The original design intent of the house was to maximise natural daylight, a goal that remains successfully realised today. Rooms are flooded with light, while the excellent proportions throughout allow the house to be used comfortably without any necessity for extension, offering both practicality and long-term flexibility. A large entrance hall, complemented by an open staircase, is ideally proportioned to allow easy and intuitive movement throughout the house. To the right, the main living room extends through to the rear of the property, creating a wonderful open-plan living and reception space. Individually, these are generous rooms; together, they form a truly impressive and flexible living area, ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining. The kitchen, located to the rear of the house, enjoys pleasant views of the rear garden and provides direct access to the outdoor space, further enhancing the home’s connection between inside and out. The bedroom accommodation at No. 1 Greenfields is particularly strong. The main bedroom is exceptionally spacious and offers clear potential for the creation of an en-suite and dressing area. Both the second and third bedrooms are oversized, allowing for comfortable use as bedrooms while also presenting the opportunity to install a stairs to the attic and undertake a future attic conversion, subject to the usual consents. A well-positioned family bathroom, centrally located to serve all three bedrooms, has been sensibly designed to maximise space and functionality. The attached garage offers obvious potential for conversion or adaptation, or it may be retained as a valuable storage and utility space. What truly sets this property apart is its address, setting, and lifestyle offering—a home of quality, space, and long-term appeal in one of the area’s most respected residential locations.
