Ballincurra Cottage, Moyvore, Co. Westmeath

MARK NESTOR PROPERTY SERVICES are pleased to present to the Market this stunning property located just 2km from Moyvore Village in the County of Westmeath.

Homes come in all shapes and sizes, but few are as universally admired as the cottage. Originally humble dwellings intended for poorer members of society, who would use the surrounding garden to grow their own crops and medicinal plants, cottages have today become a rural idyll.

Cosy, brimming with character, and possessing a uniquely warm and welcoming atmosphere, their appeal seems to transcend all design boundaries. Happily, the look is more of an ethos than a prescribed style, and can translate to houses of every era, as evidenced in this property which spans two centuries.

Coming a long way from its original origins, Ballincurra Cottage has recently undergone extensive renovation by its current owner and an extension has been added to the original floorplan. The result is a high specification home with a BER of A3 delivering the efficiency rating of a Brand New Home. Upon entering the property, it is quite apparent that the standard of finish and quality building materials used have attributed to the impressive B3 energy rating.

A Heat Pump with underfloor heating and A-Rated Munster Joinery windows and doors throughout, ensure the energy costs are kept to an absolute minimum.

The well-appointed accommodation which enjoys an abundance of natural light throughout extends to 102 sq.m. / 1,100 sq.ft. approx.) and comprises of a reception hallway a very generous and contemporary open plan kitchen/ dining room/ family room (with a separate utility/laundry room off same) all opening out onto the private wraparound gardens via French doors offering excellent scope for outdoor entertaining and dining.

The ground floor accommodation also hosts three double bedrooms (the master suite has an ensuite off same). There are three other generous bedrooms and a family bathroom that complete the internal accommodation.

Considerable thought, effort and investment has been poured into the layout, flow, design and fit-out – both inside and out of this home with particular attention to the storage solutions throughout this cleverly designed home.

A kitchen, sanitary ware and wood flooring have been fitted to the property. The property has been painted in neutral palette and presents a blank canvass upon which a new owner can stamp their own signature.

Possibilities are endless on the large site upon which the property sits of approx. 0.42 Hectares (1 Acre). This is a wonderful opportunity to buy a unique home and early viewings are advised by the Agent.
