Claras house is steeped with history and is nestled in the serene countryside with picturesque views onto Lough Ree. It is a truly unique, Georgian-style, stone-built two-storey home, perfectly blending historic charm with modern comfort.
It is believed to be built as a country home by a British family in georgian times. During the land commissons Claras house was taken over by the Cathloic Church becoming a parochial house for three years then bought by Irish landowners who pridefully owned it until recently.
It was tastefully renovated in 2024/2025, the property is sympathetically restored with insulated lime plaster, fully rewired, replumbed and new gutters ensuring energy efficiency while maintaining its period character.
This impressive turn-key residence offers spacious accommodation throughout. Downstairs features an elegant living room featuring a reinstated granite fireplace and new stove. A bright Kitchen/Dining room with new bespoke Mark Lohan sage green units and solid wood counter tops. This leads to a practical utility room with access onto the yard and outbuildings. It had four generously sized bedrooms, including one downstairs with En-Suite, family-sized main bathroom and WC. All rooms benefit from large windows with original shutters that welcome an abundance of natural light and showcasing the surrounding landscape.
Externally the property has traditional stone-built outbuildings spanning c.137m2 fronting onto a concrete yard which is accessed through double gates. Both the yard and outbuildings have an abundance of potential.
