This stunning 191 sqm detached home, on approximately 2 acres, offers privacy and seclusion but not at the cost of accessibility as it is located about 2 km from the beautiful village of Kilmore Quay.Originally built in 1888, this lovely home is full of original details from exposed beams, flagstones, stone walls, feature and stain glassed windows through to the use of Belfast sinks but again, not at the risk of being modern as the home has PV power, oil heating and mains water.The photos of the interior speak for themselves but what is hard to capture is the sense of peace afforded this home with mature landscaped gardens intersected by pathways that make it feel like a true "place apart".The property also offers a large detached garage over which is a one bedroom studio apartment from which the sea views are simply wonderful.If working or studying from home is something you are considering, there is also a detached cabin style office area on the site.To truly appreciate what Chapel Gardens has to offer, this property really has to be seen to be fully appreciated.Other points to note:PV panels providing both power and hot water (a battery could be added to the system), EV charger, OFCH - new boiler installed December 2024, ten person septic tank, mains water, fibre broadband in main house.Kilmore Quay approx 2km, Wexford Town approx 20km, Bray approx 140 km (90 minutes).
