Description

“A remarkable historic riverside residence extending to approximately 13.27 acres with direct access to the River Blackwater, incorporating part of the old railway line and framed by a magnificent 13th Century castle wall erected by the Knights Templar’s.” Set amidst approximately 13.27 acres of mature and beautifully private grounds, Kilbree Castle is an extraordinary riverside residence where history, heritage and natural beauty combine to create a property of exceptional character and rarity. Approached along a sweeping tree-lined avenue and enclosed by magnificent stone walls, the property enjoys an atmosphere of complete tranquillity and timeless appeal. This enchanting estate offers privacy, history and a lifestyle opportunity seldom brought to the market. At the heart of the grounds sits the beautifully maintained residence extending to approximately 2,518 sq. ft., presented in excellent condition and ready for immediate occupancy. The house has been lovingly cared for and offers bright, spacious accommodation with a wonderful connection to the surrounding gardens, grounds and River Blackwater beyond. A particularly remarkable feature of Kilbree Castle is the historic castle wall believed to have been erected by Knights Templar’s during the 13th Century. This impressive stone structure forms a dramatic backdrop to the gardens and creates a unique sense of place rarely found in private ownership. The arched entrance and fortified character offer a tangible link to the estate’s historic past. The accommodation briefly comprises a welcoming large kitchen/dining room with direct access to the front garden, creating an ideal family and entertaining space. The formal dining room enjoys beautiful views overlooking the River Blackwater, while the spacious living room features a fitted stove and double doors opening into the stunning conservatory. Positioned to the side of the residence, the large conservatory is undoubtedly one of the home’s most special spaces, commanding elevated views across the lands and down towards the River Blackwater — an exceptional room to enjoy throughout the changing seasons. Further accommodation includes three bedrooms, one of which is ensuite, together with a family bathroom, large utility room, and a back kitchen area offering additional practicality. The house benefits from oil fired central heating, together with solar panels installed approximately 20 years ago, contributing towards energy efficiency. Outside, the estate continues to impress. A beautiful secret garden enclosed by the historic castle walls provides an unforgettable setting with a large central water fountain creating a stunning focal point. Beyond lies a mature orchard leading into the large field positioned to the front of the residence. The lands themselves are exceptionally diverse and incorporate part of the old railway line, creating another historic element and a beautiful natural corridor through the estate. A peaceful woodland walk extends to the roadside, ideal for walking and enjoying the privacy of the grounds. There are also stables located within the large field, presented in very good condition and offering excellent potential for equestrian, hobby or storage use. A truly exceptional feature is the property’s direct access to the River Blackwater. The lands extend down to the riverbank and provide the rare opportunity to drive a boat directly down to the river, an amenity seldom available in private residential ownership and one that greatly enhances the lifestyle appeal of the property. Conveniently located just approximately 5 minutes from Cappoquin and 8 minutes from Lismore, Kilbree Castle enjoys complete seclusion while remaining within easy reach of local services and amenities. This property can only be described as a piece of heaven — a once-off opportunity to acquire a historic home and private estate with remarkable character, river frontage and exceptional natural beauty.
