Description

Savills and Tom Spillane are delighted to present Killegy House and Hunting Lodge, an expansive house with detached guest lodge in a picturesque location in the bustling town of Killarney. The home is discreetly located at the edge of and surrounded by Killarney National Park and is accessed via a discreet entrance through the National Park. The gated entrance and private rhododendron lined driveway leads to a delightfully rural and private setting with views over The Lakes of Killarney, Torc Mountain and the MacGillycuddy Reeks in the distance. This unique and wonderful home is an oasis in this world renowned and historic part of Ireland, only a stones through from Muckross House and parklands and a few minutes' drive to Killarney town. The Italianate style main house sits on an elevated part of the site to ensure maximised views of the property's very own private lake, together with Lakes of Killarney and the mountains beyond with extensive glazing to the conservatory and reception room which incorporates an upper floor internal balcony / gallery off the Master Bedroom. The 2-bed guest cottage is a thatched roofed two storey building full of character with a feature brick fireplace in the living room. Both properties form a spacious sheltered paved courtyard. Internally the main house is immediately impressing with extensive wood panelling in the hallway, a frescoed ceiling, centre staircase and gallery walkway. This stately hallway with feature stained-glass window leads to the kitchen/dining room and on to the large gothic style glazed conservatory reception and bar area which opens in to the snooker room and gymnasium beyond. The main stairway leads to the master bedroom with mezzanine gallery off and one guest bedroom, all with exquisite views over the lakes and the second stairway leads to two further bedrooms, all four of which are ensuite. The house was built in 1995 and is constructed of local stone with slate rooves, extensive oak double glazed windows which are double height in conservatory with limestone capping throughout. Extensive oak panelling is a prominent feature in the main house with matching internal doors. The guest cottage is of similar stone construction with a thatched roof which is currently in need of repair. The cottage has a large south facing terrace on the upper floor off the main bedroom. Outside a pathway leads from the large courtyard to the tennis court and various garden seating areas on stone slabbed patios with dry stone walls, a strong feature of the lands immediately surrounding the property. The property stretches to c.34 acres which comprise a private lake, wild gardens, pasture and woodland. Contact us today to arrange your viewing. Do not miss this rare opportunity!
