The original residence dates from circa the 1930s, with a substantial extension completed in 1998, creating a wonderfully spacious family home extending to c. 233 sq.m. The property has evolved considerably over the years while retaining the charm and character associated with the original dwelling. Generous living accommodation, mature private grounds and a substantial detached garage combine to create a particularly appealing property in one of County Wexford’s most established coastal locations. The accommodation is entered through a welcoming entrance hallway and offers an excellent balance of formal and informal living space. There is a comfortable sitting room and separate dining room, while at the heart of the home lies a particularly spacious kitchen featuring a handmade bespoke timber kitchen with central island. Double doors lead from here into the large family room, creating an excellent space for everyday family living and entertaining. A bright sunroom enjoys an attractive outlook over the rear gardens and provides a peaceful connection between the house and its mature outdoor setting. Completing the principal living accommodation are a practical utility room and separate shower room. The ground-floor bedroom accommodation comprises three bedrooms, each fitted with built-in wardrobes, together with a family bathroom. This arrangement provides considerable flexibility and makes Stella Maris particularly suitable for those seeking predominantly single-level living. At first-floor level, the converted attic provides substantial additional accommodation, presently arranged to include a lounge area, office and extensive ancillary space. This level offers considerable versatility for home working, hobbies, recreation or additional storage. Subject to the necessary planning permission and building regulations, there may also be potential to further enhance this area, including the possibility of incorporating dormer windows to the rear and developing additional bedroom accommodation. Externally, Stella Maris is equally impressive. The property occupies a generally level and mature site extending to c. 0.51 acres, approached via a private driveway and surrounded by established landscaped gardens laid predominantly in lawn. To the rear is an enclosed concrete courtyard together with further lawned gardens, creating a private and sheltered outdoor setting with ample space for relaxation, entertaining and family use.
