Discerning buyers cannot but be impressed with the quality of this beautiful detached home in the village of Ballinaboola; only 20 minutes from both Waterford city and Wexford town.
This stunning property is part of a small development of only 14 similar detached homes in a landscaped estate just off the N25. The property occupies a large corner site (Circa 0.5 acre) at the end of a cul-de-sac commanding lovely views of the surrounding countryside.
Despite its quiet rural location, the residents of Ballinaboola have excellent road links to both of the south east’s motorways with access to the M11 via either Wexford (N25 & N11) or Enniscorthy, (N30 & N80) or the M9 via the N25/N24 interchange near Ferrybank, Waterford.
Commuters to Waterford can avail of the N25 New Ross Bypass, with the stunning Rose Kennedy Bridge delivering speedy access to suburban Waterford in only 15 minutes.
The property itself was constructed in 2020 and provides 200 m2 (circa 2150ft 2) of luxury accommodation over two floors.
The ground floor features a spacious hallway with a statement hand-made ash stairs leading to the first floor. Two bright reception rooms flank the hallway to the left and right. Both have open fireplaces and dual aspect windows.
The kitchen-diner spans the rear of the house with garden views. The fitted kitchen features a dusky pink hand painted cabinets with a polished timber worktop and matching upstand. Chrome accessories and integrated appliances are featured. A pop of contrasting colour is provided by the gold metallic pendant lights over the breakfast counter.
Off the kitchen to the right is a back lobby/boot-room, leading to a utility room and shower room. The utility room features ample storage, a sink and plumbed undercounter space for a washing machine and dryer.
From the entrance hall, the beautiful stairs lead up to a galleried landing. To the front, the landing morphs into a reading nook, an ideal spot to relax into a cosy armchair with a good book. Four large double bedrooms rooms feature in this house, with the master bedroom including an en-suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe. The main bathroom provides a shower and a corner bath. The quality of the bathroom fitout is similar to that of a luxury hotel, with modern white sanitaryware and both tiling and accessories from the upper end of the market. Other than the bathrooms, the upper floor is carpeted with a mink carpet throughout.
A Stira stairs provides safe and easy access into the floored attic. The attic has both electric power and a velux window.
The property boasts an attractive B2 energy rating, reflecting the quality of the insulation, doors and windows. The primary heating is oil fired, with open fireplaces in both reception rooms. It’s likely that one or both of these fireplaces might accommodate a stove.
The property also features a monitored Phonewatch alarm with remote access via mobile App. Another quirky and imaginative feature is a battery backup to the interior lights in the event of a short power outage.
Outdoors, the property is on an extra large site with a detached garage (26m2) for storage of outdoor equipment, furniture, bicycles etc. A large paved patio is ready for entertaining and barbeques. The property faces south and the garden is that large that on a sunny day, it will always be in the sun.
The nearest town is New Ross with a wide selection of retail, dining, sports facilities and schools.
The new South East Greenway will add to the already broad choice of leisure and tourist attractions of the immediate area, such as the Dunbrody famine ship, Kennedy Homestead and Arboretum, Dunbrody Abbey, Hook Peninsula and Loftus Hall, newly acquired for development into a destination hotel and resort.
The sale price for this property includes integrated appliances and fixtures. All the furniture is available for sale and buyers are invited to enquire about this possibility at their viewing.
