Description
Standing on approximately 8.5 acres in the idyllic location of Kilmovee Village this charming and detached 2-storey dwelling comes to the market requiring complete renovation throughout and offering exceptional potential. This 4-5 bed residence, which enjoys a beautiful wisteria on its facade, is complimented by several horse stalls, outbuildings, a fully habitable 2-bed mobile home, a sand-based training ring and 2 bog plots with turbary rights. The property is surrounded by traditional stone walls and bordered, in part, by a stream.
Renovation works have commenced on the dwelling; some internal walls have been removed to create larger rooms and some floors have been removed in preparation for underfloor heating. The property is exceptionally dry throughout considering it has been derelict and vacant for a number of years. The ground floor is laid out as a living room/dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms, an office and a bathroom while the first floor is currently predominately open plan plus a bathroom and offers potential for up to three good sized bedrooms and an attic room. Mains power was recently connected to both the house and the mobile home. While excellent drinking water is provided by the local group water scheme the property also enjoys its own private well. A fully operational septic tank serves both the house and mobile home. The property currently has high speed internet connected (100mbs) with fibre due later this year.
Outside two of the horse stables and tack rooms have been utilised to accommodate a large workshop and adjoining art studio and child's playroom, providing valuable extra living space during renovations. 5 additional concrete-built stables provide animal housing or storage, with a large drive and double gate allowing full access to this area.
The house is surrounded by a walled and mature garden, with lands expanding beyond that. The land, all good quality and organically kept, offers a bustling retreat with the potential of your very own nature reserve with a private well, a mixture of grasslands, woodlands and orchards all bordered by a babbling brook. The two bog plots are located in a nearby townland and come complete with turbary rights, each extending to approximately 2100m2.
While enjoying all that this wonderful property has to offer one would be forgiven for thinking you are in the midst of a wilderness, the reality is quite to the contrary; Kilmovee National School is directly across the road from the dwelling while a host of National Schools are located within a 10 kilometre radius. An excellent Montessori based nursery is just 7 minutes away. Ireland West Airport Knock is within a 12 minute drive and Ballaghaderreen is only 7 kilometres away. The towns of Castlebar, Roscommon, Sligo and Carrick-on-Shannon are all accessible within 45 minutes. Castlerea Rail Station, with direct routes to Dublin, is a mere 20 minutes' drive. Accommodation
