This unique property actually comprises of two dwellings and a selection of refurbished traditional stone outhouses on a ½ acre site in the rural idyll of Flemmingstown, near Kilmacow. Located just off the N24, this property has speedy access to the N24, N25, M9 as well as local villages (Kilmacow & Mooncoin) and Waterford city (10 minutes away).
The original dwelling house is a stone built, 2 bedroom cottage, (Circa 200 years old) providing (circa) 75m2 of internal accommodation and featuring two bedrooms, a bathroom, traditional kitchen – dining space , a sitting room and a storm porch. It features a solid fuel back boiler for heating and hot water.
The current owners, veteran developers, spotted the conversion potential of the main barn, and set about transforming it into a luxurious one bedroom home with the bedroom located on an open plan mezzanine balcony, overlooking the 13 meter long ground floor living space. The resulting property oozes rural cottage charm, whilst featuring modern open-plan living concepts. The interior features plenty of warm tones, timber cladding, beams and timber flooring. The barn is amply heated by a single solid fuel stove and is cleverly arranged to provide distinctive spaces for the kitchen, diningroom, lounge and a quiet “snug” under the mezzanine for quiet relaxation. The conversion features a 5 metre high vaulted ceiling, suggesting the interior of a church rather than an old barn. The master bedroom is reached via a beautiful crafted timber stairs off the living space and is open-plan, other than an enclosed en-suite WC. However, the bath is located on the mezzanine and overlooks the main room below. The windows feature timber effect PVC double glazing, and the thick stone walls create a sense of calmness, silence & security.
The barn provides potential to add further accommodation as there’s another (circa) 18 m2 of the building yet to be converted. Now used as a workshop, and accessed externally, the adjoining space is separated by a party wall and could easily be converted to the standard of the current living quarters. This could easily provide 2 or 3 more bedrooms on two floors if desired.
In addition to the workshop, refurbished stone outhouses provide (circa) 38m2 of storage or ancillary accommodation to the rear of the two dwellings. One outhouse of (circa) 17m2 has been converted into a gym, the others (circa) 15m2 are used for storage of gardening equipment and harvested vegetables from the owners extensive vegetable beds and green house.
The property also features a covered carport, ample parking in the gravel yard to the front of the property, and a lovely landscaped, south facing cottage garden with mature trees and shrubbery. The property features mains water supply and its own septic waste system. BER Exempt.
This property is truly unique and a testament to the taste & experience of its current owners who move on with regret.
