Originally constructed in 1845 and designed in a Gothic Revival style, the building is characterised by its striking pointed-arched windows and dressed stone detailing. In recent years, the church has been lovingly restored by its current owners, transforming it into a truly exceptional residence while carefully preserving the character and craftsmanship of the original building. The impressive interior retains an abundance of period features, including vaulted ceilings, original timber flooring, the original pulpit staircase, arched doorways and the original crafted timberwork, seamlessly blending historic charm with contemporary living. Occupying a generous 0.39-acre site, the property is approached through wrought iron entrance gates with cut stone boundary walls onto a pea gravel driveway and lawn areas to the sides and rear. Perfectly positioned just a short stroll from Kilkee's renowned horseshoe beach and vibrant seafront, the property enjoys immediate access to the many amenities this popular coastal town has to offer. Kilkee is celebrated for its spectacular cliff walks, natural swimming areas, cafés, restaurants, pubs, shops and excellent sporting facilities, while nearby attractions including the Loop Head Peninsula and Carrigaholt make this one of the most sought-after locations along the Wild Atlantic Way. Combining architectural heritage with an enviable seaside setting, St. James' Church presents a rare opportunity to acquire one of West Clare's most distinctive and iconic homes.
