Description
Introducing 2 Frenchbrook, Castlebar, an impressive detached family residence offering exceptional scale, privacy and convenience in one of the town's most appealing residential settings. Occupying a mature site of approximately one acre within an exclusive cul-de-sac development of just six homes, this substantial property combines the space and tranquillity of countryside living with the ease of being only 2 kilometres from Castlebar Town. Built in 1999 and extending to approximately 211.8 square metres, or 2,280 square feet, the home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully proportioned six bedroom, four bathroom residence with a large detached garage, generous gardens and excellent long-term family appeal. Set behind elegant entrance gates and approached by a sweeping tarmacadam driveway, the property makes an immediate impression. The attractive façade is framed by mature lawns, established boundaries and a sense of openness that is increasingly difficult to find so close to town. The large detached garage sits neatly to the rear, offering excellent storage, workshop potential or secure parking, while the extensive grounds provide superb outdoor space for children, entertaining, gardening or future lifestyle use, subject to any necessary consents. The setting feels private and settled, with the added reassurance of a small, well-spaced cul-de-sac community. Internally, the accommodation is bright, spacious and thoughtfully arranged over two floors, with a layout ideally suited to modern family living. A welcoming entrance hall sets the tone, featuring a striking timber staircase and a warm, traditional finish that continues throughout the home. The principal reception rooms are generous and inviting, with polished timber floors, elegant coving and large windows drawing in natural light. The main living room is a particularly comfortable space, centred around a feature fireplace and fitted display cabinetry, while the adjoining dining area enjoys pleasant views towards the garden and direct access to the outdoor decking, creating a natural flow for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is a substantial and well-equipped space with extensive timber cabinetry, tiled splashback, island unit and excellent worktop space. A separate utility room provides additional storage and practical laundry facilities, while the ground floor also includes further reception and bedroom accommodation, allowing the home to adapt easily to the needs of a growing family, visiting guests or those seeking the option of ground floor living. A large bathroom at this level is finished with a spacious walk-in shower area, giving the property added accessibility and flexibility. Upstairs, the home continues to impress with a generous landing and well-proportioned bedrooms. The floorplan shows three spacious bedrooms on this level, two of which have their own en-suites and walk-in closets, making the layout highly practical for family life. The bedroom accommodation is bright and comfortable, with a mixture of timber floors, dormer-style character and pleasant views over the surrounding grounds. In total, the house offers six bedrooms and four bathrooms, providing ample space for larger households, home working, guests or multi-generational living. The property has a BER rating of C2 and is heated by oil fired central heating. While the home already offers superb size, character and functionality, it also presents exciting scope for a purchaser to personalise and modernise over time, enhancing an already substantial and well-built residence in a highly desirable location. The mature one acre site is one of its defining features, providing privacy, space and a lovely sense of permanence, all within minutes of Castlebar's schools, shops, cafés, leisure amenities, hospital, employment centres and transport links. 2 Frenchbrook is a home of notable presence and potential: a rare six bedroom detached property with generous internal accommodation, excellent outdoor space, a large detached garage and a peaceful cul-de-sac setting just 2 kilometres from the heart of Castlebar. It is a distinguished family home that offers space, privacy and convenience in equal measure.
