Description

Bellevue House, 2 The Ramparts, Kinsale is a handsome and imposing three bay, two storey house over basement dating to C. 1810 having a beautiful three storey rear elevation with stunning oriel window overlooking Kinsale Town, harbour, marina, James Fort, Charles Fort and Summercove. Dressed with large private walled rear gardens, the property has a very attractive blue graduated slate hung faé§ade and rear exterior with a rendered basement plinth to the front with a limestone approach with original wrought iron boot scrapes, timber panel door with brass furniture, overhead fan light and period door casings. Limestone steps and cast iron railings access front basement level with a beautiful coble paving surface to roadside, as well as a private parking area on its western gable. The interiors of the property are quite simply beautiful having undergone an extensive and sympathetic renovation in the past 15 years with a conservation architect retained to preserve and where necessary replicate the property's original features. Accommodation of this unique Kinsale period home exudes style, character & charm that is effervescent with features such as 10ft. high corniced ceilings, panelled sash windows throughout the property as well as a stunning turned stair case with feature arched dome window overlooking the properties gardens, Kinsale town & harbour. All rooms are light filled, spacious and with a strong configuration extending to over 2,500sq.ft. with no less then five bedrooms, main kitchen & basement kitchen, master reception room on entry level as well as an informal garden basement reception room and three bathrooms including a luxurious master en-suite. Virtually all windows have working original shutters and the property benefits from zoned oil fired central heating and mains services. Bellevue House is turnkey and ready for immediate occupancy. The standout feature for this writer is undoubtably the beautiful oriel window with internal window seat overlooking the property's gardens enjoying breath-taking views of Kinsale town & harbour, and one could imagine spending endless happy hours just simply sitting there and drinking in the property's wonderful views and vistas in the company of a great book, the house and the setting is truly inspirational. The property and its adjoining home were originally built by a local Kinsale merchant prince for his two daughters with the setting and the house being one of the best original Kinsale homes. This is a very rare opportunity to acquire an iconic, heritage Kinsale home in an excellent state of repair and presentation order that is beautiful and utterly charming beyond superlatives. Viewing are available by prior, private appointment only. ___________________________________________________________ This stunning and elegantly presented property known as Bellevue House, 2 The Ramparts is perched above the ever colourful town of Kinsale enjoying exquisite views of the town, harbour, marina, James Fort, Charles Fort and Summercove yet within easy walking distance of the town centre and all its wonderful amenities, offering the perfect blend of privacy and convenience.
