Description
Rathsnagadan Lodge is a modern regency style villa residence built in 2001. The exceptional three-bedroom property extends to approx. 237 sq. m (2,550 sq. ft.) has been finished to a superb standard inside and out. Gracefully standing on approx. 3.05 ha (7 acres) the location of Rathsnagadan commands striking views of the Nore Valley and the surrounding verdant countryside.
Accommodation
Rathsnagadan Lodge has been constructed to a complementary design reminiscent of the Regency period and combines many enviable features of that time, including ten-foot-high ceilings, plaster cornicing and gracious room proportions, with the convenient attributes and efficiencies of modern living.
A stone pillared porch precedes the front door and on entrance the large hall immediately commands attention with a black and white tiled floor and imposing decorative columns. To the right is a gracious sized drawing room with a Victorian style white marble fireplace. On the left is the equally gracious sized dining room with a black marble fireplace and a concealed doorway connecting the kitchen. The harmony of both reception room’s size and layout is indicative of the regency era.
The main hall also connects to the family style kitchen which combines a breakfast room and cosy family living area with wood burning stove. This large room is further enhanced by the south and west facing aspects which flood the space with natural light. French doors lead to the outside terrace which is perfect for alfresco entertaining in the warmer months. There is also a good size utility room.
The bedroom accommodation includes: a double guest bedroom, a twin room with Jack and Jill ensuite to the master bedroom. The large master suite offers superb south facing views over the garden and French doors to the patio.
Grounds & Gardens
Rathsnagadan Lodge is approached through wrought iron gates on stone pillars, leading to the mature tree-lined gravel drive and entrance porch. The established hedging surrounding the gardens offers complete privacy and shelter. The gardens are a mixture of lawns, mature planting and a terrace with ornamental pond, all designed with minimum maintenance requirements. The immediate grounds surrounding the property offer a space full of tranquillity and serenity and offer a colourful montage over the course of the year with attractive flowering beds.
The lands are set out in 3 main paddocks, all currently in grass and extend to approximately 2.9 ha (7 acres) with extended road frontage on either side of the entrance. The quality of the land would support a variety of agricultural enterprises for the discerning purchaser.
