Description

Quillsen proudly presents to the summer market this picture perfect Parnellite cottage of great character that dates to 1895 and presently makes a cosy home. Together with useful out-offices, the cottage is set on a level and rectangular shaped landscaped site of circa half an acre thus offering much untapped potential. Examination of the current Meath Co. Co. Trim Development Plan 2014-2020 indicates an "A1 Existing Residential" zoning for the property. Such designation should prove advantageous where one is planning to further develop the property for residential purposes with an extension or such like project. Indeed the present owner explored the possibility of redeveloping the property albeit their housing requirement is now alternatively satisfied. An architects impression of what such a development might look like had been prepared. Given its zoning, prime location and spacious site, this property offers huge potential and scope notwithstanding that it makes a comfortable home as-is.
