Description

Recognizing the privilege of owning and residing in a period property has to be the greatest feeling. The Rectory in Wallslough, Bennettsbridge is all of that. A refurbished and upgraded period home just 5 minutes from Kilkenny City on its own site of 0.6 acres approx. The Rectory is a landmark property in Kilkenny with all the charm and character to make it unique. Driving out the Bennettsbridge Road and turning right at 'The Pump'. The Rectory is located a few hundred yards up the road on your right hand side and is recognised as a landmark property. The house oozes charm, and as you turn in through the gated and pillared entrance of the Rectory you are struck by the rarity of its type. A large, tall, stone house, with strong brick features on a large private site that surrounds and fits the property perfectly. A concrete driveway sets the period of that time as does the pedestrian entrance and pathway from the road. The privacy around the house is startling. As you approach the front door, there's the expectation of difference and stepping inside you are not disappointed. You have to love the big bright entrance hall. The level of care given to maintain the originality of the house is special, holding its integrity and at the same time, producing a modern home with all that's expected. The drawing room is on your right as you enter. A large and spacious room, with all the light and character you'd expect. Original timber floors and fireplace, cornicing, and rails combine to create a gorgeous ambiance, that only a period house can. To the left, as you enter, the dining room, almost replicates the drawing room. It holds a meticulous presence, with so much of its originality, present. The entrance hall exudes charm and sophistication. The hand-crafted original staircase is a magnificent piece of furniture in itself. Slow-rising steps add to its easy use and you can feel the structure strength when ascending to the first floor. The kitchen dining and family space is to the rear of the house. Newly fitted units, feature lighting, and a new porcelain Italian herringbone tile floor creates a wonderful comfortable space that although new, just blends with the aesthetics of the house. The option is there also to break through to the front parlour from this area to create a large family space. A private retreat or snug room is located off the kitchen. It is the ultimate space to hide away and take time out. The ground floor visitor's w/c is located to the rear access hall, as is the added sunroom space. There's rear access through the sunroom to the outside garden area. Whether its finding solace in the snug room or relishing the serenity of the sunroom, this property is a haven where every moment can be cherished. Heading upstairs is probably the best feeling. The expectancy of what this home holds, and the experience it offers. The landing area is just perfect. The reading area on the landing under the window is somewhere you'd want to use, it holds a wonderful relaxed feel. There are 4 bedrooms on this floor, with the master bedroom boasting a magnificent and beautiful en suite which has underfloor heating, that's at a modern showroom level. High ceilings add that wonderful feeling of space, to the first-floor rooms. There are fitted robes, gifting also the ultimate amount of storage. Ceiling covings add a touch of class and the original floor boards, hold great character. The second bedroom is across the hall from the main room and has again all its original features, enjoying daylight and space. Built-in slide robes offer huge storage in this room also There are two more double bedrooms to the rear and off the large landing space. Both bedrooms hold a special level of finish and pleasant warmth and ambience. They are perfect-sized rooms.
