MARK NESTOR PROPERTY SERVICES are pleased to present to the market this traditional style cottage located close to the village of Newtowncashel (4.6km) and just 1km from the shores of Lough Ree.
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. 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 pre-1840, this Cottage has recently undergone extensive renovation by its current owner. The result is a beautifully presented home which enjoys an abundance of natural light throughout
Renovations in 2021 include:
House rewired and replumbed 7 No. Radiators fitted Drylining

The accommodation comprises of a hallway a very generous and contemporary open plan kitchen/ dining room two bedrooms (one currently used as a separate sitting room) and a bathroom that complete the internal accommodation.
This property would be ideal as a holiday home lying in such a picturesque and private area.
Considerable thought, effort and investment has been poured into the layout, flow, design and fit-out – both inside this home with particular attention to the storage solutions throughout this cleverly designed home.
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 this site upon which the property sits of approx. one third of an acre). Subject to the necessary planning permission, the former stables are ripe for conversion into further residential accommodation.
This is a wonderful opportunity to buy a unique home and early viewings are advised by the Agent.
