Description
Sherry FitzGerald Walsh present this truly magnificent opportunity to acquire a period style residence, built c. 1820. The property is nestled on private grounds of approximately 1.1 acres, located on the periphery of Charleville town.
Garryrhu House boasts all the attributes one seeks when acquiring a period style residence, from the charming facade to the deceptively spacious well-laid out accommodation featuring flexibility of use with many period details and its wonderful location enhanced by mature gardens.
The reception rooms are accessed off the welcoming entrance hallway which has period features and impressive character. The living room is attractively decorated, set around a solid fuel stove inserted into the open fireplace. This room could easily be used as an office or fourth bedroom. Across the hallway, the dining room and connecting sitting room are nicely decorated and have views over the front garden. A door leads onto rendered steps and down onto the gravel driveway beyond. Steps descend into the kitchen/dining area which has an exceptional family size handmade kitchen with an array of built-in units, Belfast sink, 5cm Granite worktops and a solid fuel Sorrin stove. A set of back stairs leads to the adjoining utility area with built-in units, a guest bathroom and a porch area. A small corridor leads to a bedroom which overlooks the rear garden. The gym room complete with hot tub and adjoining bathroom is a great addition to the home. A staircase ascends back to the reception hallway where the split-level landing leads to two sizeable bedrooms, showing many more original features and exposed walls, and the family bathroom which is fully tiled.
The property is deceptively spacious and unique with single-storey front elevation and two storey rear elevation, beautifully set on the surrounding luscious gardens. The property is approached by double gates and a tree lined gravel driveway leads you to the property. Border shrubs and plants add texture and colour to the front grounds including cherry blossom trees, wisteria and a scattering of bluebells. To the rear, there is a mature lawn lined with conifer hedging flanked by sleepers and a raised decking area, perfect for outdoor entertainment.
Full planning permission has also recently been granted behind the property to construct a modern, contemporary 'A' rated single storey dwelling using the existing entrance and passageway. Plans, site map and planning conditions are available on request and can be sold separately.
A major advantage of the property is its location, while on the other hand it offers absolute seclusion, as it is well hidden from public view and is only a 0.5 km stroll to the town centre and all its amenities. The N20 provides direct access to Cork and Limerick City. There is a mainline rail service available in Charleville and Mallow and a regular bus service to Cork, Limerick, Galway and Dublin.
Viewings of this fine property come highly recommended to fully appreciate the accommodation and potential on offer. Accommodation
