DNG Declan Woulfe Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale a very unique opportunity to acquire two picturesque cottages in a tranquil rural setting on a large site of c. 1.38 acres in rural West Limerick. Both cottages fit snugly into the wooded setting while capturing splendid views of the surrounding hinterland
Both cottages are in excellent decorative condition, providing a blank canvas to possibly redevelop them into other residential or possible commercial use in a beautiful location with very scenic views in all directions.
The gardens were transformed over the years where flowers, shrubs and trees were planted from all over the world. Today, the gardens make full advantage of the magnificent grounds and stunning views.
Both Cottages were purchased by the current owners, world renowned wood sculptor Ian Norbury and his wife Betty, expert in contemporary bespoke furniture, who saw massive potential in both properties and they started work on the cottages and gardens to transform them into the beauty they are today.
