Description
Charming Country Cottage Near Maynooth Looking for a home with true character? This delightful c.135-year-old country cottage offers the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern comfort. We are delighted to present this unique three bedroom residence, set on approximately 0.23 hectares (0.57 acres) of mature grounds just a short distance from Maynooth. Stepping inside, you?ll find accommodation that beautifully combines heritage and contemporary design. The original cottage features a welcoming hallway and cosy living room, while a thoughtfully designed extension, introduces a spacious, light-filled kitchen/dining/living area and a modern bathroom. A stunning feature wall of exposed original stonework provides a striking focal point, showcasing the cottage?s timeless character. The property includes three double bedrooms - two generously sized rooms upstairs and one downstairs - making it ideal for family living or guest accommodation. Comfort is assured throughout the seasons with dual fuel heating, combining a large solid-fuel stove in the living room with oil-fired central heating. The boiler was replaced during the 2019 renovation, ensuring efficiency and reliability. Externally, the home exudes classic country cottage appeal, a landmark as you go into Donadea - it is set on a level site with gardens to both sides and ample parking to the front and side. A solid 300 sq. ft. shed to the rear provides excellent storage or workshop potential. The boundaries are beautifully defined by mature trees, hedgerows, shrubs, and timber post-and-rail fencing, creating a private and picturesque setting. There is also potential for further extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Situated less than 15 minutes from Maynooth, the property offers convenient access to the M4 motorway at both Kilcock and Maynooth, with train stations located in each town for easy commuting. The cottage enjoys an enviable setting in the Kildare countryside, just 1.4km from Donadea Forest Park, a popular destination for walking, cycling, and outdoor recreation. A selection of welcoming pubs, restaurants, and cafes are nearby, including a charming cafe directly opposite the forest park. This is a truly special property - a rare opportunity to own a piece of history in a peaceful rural setting, while remaining close to vibrant town amenities. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate all this beautiful home has to offer. Services Mains Water Septic Tank Mains Electricity Dual Heating - Oil Central Heating & Stove
