Description:
6-BEDROOM TRADITIONAL RESIDENCE WITH WORKSHOP & OUTBUILDINGS ON CA. 0.5 ACRES, BALLYCOMMANE, DURRUS
The creation of a little piece of paradise is never an easy task, but the owners of this truly unique property may just have managed to achieve this elusive task. From an original farmhouse built in the mid-1800’s, the property has been renovated and extended to include 6 bedrooms, 3 large reception rooms, a large workshop/ double garage, stables, an additional workshop and pig-house. In all, the property comprises over 3,000ft2 (ca. 300m2) of floor space in a spacious and pleasant layout. The standard of quality of the property is very impressive. The newer parts of the house were built over the last 5 years, yet every care has been taken so as to assimilate the newer parts with the older structure. This has been done so successfully that it is difficult to detect which is which. In every part of the interior, the attention to detail is thorough and convincing, with each fitting having been sourced so as to ensure an authentic quality finish throughout. The property is in an elevated position with sweeping Southerly pastoral views. Access is via a long lane leading from the public road, ensuring a superb degree of privacy and tranquillity. The workshops and outbuildings make the property ideal for a family looking for the country life and wishing to work from home, run a tourist activity centre or keep animals.
