Charming, detached cottage in this peaceful setting within walking distance of the picturesque banks or the River Slaney. Conveniently located only 15 minutes’ drive from Wexford Town, 1½ hours to Dublin and only 7 km from the N11. The nearby village located less than 5 minutes’ drive from the property offers excellent amenities including primary school, shop, post office, pubs, church and sports facilities. A 15 minute walk or 5 minute drive will take you to Killurin Bridge and the quay/slipway which offers direct access to the beautiful River Slaney for kayaking, canoeing, boating and fishing.
This property oozes character and charm, the addition of a carefully planned extension to the rear seamlessly merges the old with the new offering excellent accommodation. The property has been well maintained, tastefully decorated and is presented to the market in pristine condition. The carefully chosen interior finish, country style kitchen, solid fuel stove, contemporary bathrooms, quality tiling and timber flooring create a lovely country cottage feel with all the modern necessities well catered for. The rooms are bright and airy with lovely countryside views from every window.
The gardens here are very special, they are designed and planted to encourage biodiversity. Every plant is carefully chosen with a purpose and that is to attract wildlife. Stroll around the meandering pathway through the wildflower meadow or just sit and watch the bees collect pollen and butterflies flutter through the flowers, catch a glimpse of the River Slaney between the trees on the way. A wonderful collection of native and ornamental trees including rowan, birch, wild cherry, apple, orange blossom, lilac, and native hawthorn provide a haven for birds and wildlife. An attractive pergola and birch hedge forms a natural division between the lawn and wildflower meadow. There is a productive herb garden and ample space to create a kitchen garden. Exceptionally private garden and patio area with lovely sunny aspect perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining.
