Description

Dragonfly cottage is a unique, colourful home situated in the Waterford Gaeltacht. The original structure of this beautiful build was constructed in the 1930's and was extended to what it is today in the 90's. Dragonfly Cottage is light filled and eclectically decorated. It sits sympathetically in it's tranquil pastoral surroundings. Being based in the Gaeltacht, this community has a great geographical location on the south-west coast between Waterford and Cork. This is an area of exceptional beauty where many types of activities are available including coastal walks, cycling, water sports and more offering a peaceful but connected life. Like the other Gaeltacht areas, the Waterford Gaeltacht is also culturally rich, and the local Irish language dialect is strong despite it being a Gaeltacht with a small population. On entering the property, you are met with a gorgeous sunroom, perfect for enjoying the sunset or catching up on your favourite book. This room also features a wood burning stove which will make for cosy winter evenings as you look out over the garden. As you continue into the property you are greeted with the main living area. This is part of the original cottage which was built back in the 1930's. A wonderful compliment to the rich culture and history of the Gaeltacht. The open plan kitchen-dining area is a great space filled with character and quirks. The downstairs of the cottage also features a large double bedroom with patio doors leading out onto the decking, a bathroom complete with shower and heated towel rack, a utility room and a small porch area at the backdoor, perfect for the kids to leave their surfboards or muddy wellies after a day of adventure. Continuing upstairs, the open landing area and main bedroom benefit from a trio of angled picture windows, designed to frame the views while adding character to the exterior. There is a charming reading nook on this gorgeously lit landing which would function perfectly as a home office or study area. Upstairs in the cottage there are three double bedrooms some of which are benefitting from the beautiful sea views. Finally, on the second floor is a bathroom complete with large shower. This charming countryside home has a decking area leading off from the kitchen and the downstairs bedroom. Overlooking the garden, it is the perfect spot for summer barbeques and enjoying the outdoors in comfort. In addition to a garden storage shed to the rear there is a large block built workshop/studio with running water, electricity and endless possibilities. Although the heart of this home dates back to the 30's, this lively cottage boasts a BER rating of C2 thanks to the recent addition of extra insulation, a condenser boiler and the back boiler fitted to the living room stove. The combination of these result in a cosy and warm cottage ensuring your comfort year-round. Sitting on approximately an acre and a quarter of land, this delightful home comes with a field to the rear of the property. A perfect space to plot your own herbs and vegetables, or to home ponies. For those looking to explore the outdoors, Glencairn beach is a short 15-minute walk from the cottage and the stunning town of Ardmore is situated just 4km away. Dragonfly cottage really is a home of immense charm and character. Based in an amazing location with beautiful views and charming colourful features throughout viewing comes highly recommended. *** Liberty Blue Estate Agents and their servants or agents assume no responsibility for and give no guarantees, undertakings or warranties concerning the accuracy, completeness or up to date nature of the information and do not accept any liability whatsoever arising from any errors or omissions.
