Description

FORMER PRESBYTERY WITH COTTAGE ON C. 14.5 ACRES NEAR THE KILDARE/OFFALY BORDER Clonmore House dates from 1750 with further additions added in 1850 when the house became a Presbytery. The present owners bought the property in 1999 and completely refurbished it to include roof, heating, wiring and plumbing. The cottage was also extensively refurbished recently and is ideal as an office or additional living accommodation. The garden as it is laid out today was almost entirely re-established by the current owners. The property lies in a private rural setting. It is in First Class Condition throughout and approached through a tree lined avenue. Clonmore is easily accessible, with a fast commuter train service to Heuston Station from Kildare, Monasterevin c. 12 km or Portarlington c. 12 km. The M7 Motorway is accessible at Junction 14 c. 15 km. Newbridge c. 25 km & Kildare c. 18 km can be accessed via R419. HISTORY: This mid 18th property with adjoining chapel has undergone changes from its former use. A large 3 bay two storey extension was added to the front of the house in c. 1850. Houses are often extended and improved but it is unusual to find an extension built onto the facade of the original house. Whilst the house is now in use as a private dwelling, the chapel structure has been retained and sympathetically incorporated into domestic household use. The retention of the chapel as an integral part of the structure's history and as a reminder of the important social function this building played in the local community, contributes to the property's historical and social significance. You will note at the entrance gates that there is an original post box which is a protected structure. The modest form of the wall mounted lamp box is enhanced by Edward VII royal cipher. Though no longer in service it survives in its original position at the gates of the former Presbytery at Clonmore. Its shape is unique within the county where the wall mounted boxes are more common. The royal cipher refers to the Reign of Edward VII (1901 -1910). OUTSIDE: A very private garden with large terrace, mainly in lawn featuring a rose garden and enclosed with carefully managed box hedges and a profusion array of climbing roses and herbaceous borders. A small orchard of apple trees and 2 paddocks of top quality land and 4 pony boxes. COTTAGE: This is a delightful building c. 462 sq.ft. (c. 43 sq.m.) comprising: livingroom, kitchen with gas hob and electric oven, double size bedroom and bathroom. Adjacent to the cottage are two large store sheds one containing the Well supply pump and Community main pump together with the Water Softener equipment SERVICES: Private Well and mains water, septic tank drainage, oil fired central heating, ESB, Hi speed business WiFi and Phonewatch alarm.
