Description

Welcome to "PJ Dunnes", Clonegal a truly iconic landmark steeped in local history, occupying a commanding elevated position in the heart of the picturesque village of Clonegal, directly opposite the official finish point of the renowned Wicklow Way. Ideally positioned on the borders of Counties Carlow, Wexford and Wicklow, this exceptional property enjoys a unique setting within one of Ireland's most scenic and historic villages. A protected structure of significant architectural and historical importance, the property comprises an impressive five-bay, two-storey, gable-ended residence dating from circa 1840. The distinctive shopfront and elegant elliptical-headed doorcase were sympathetically introduced during renovations undertaken around 1940, preserving the building's character while enhancing its presence within the village streetscape. Extending to approximately 263.6 m² (2,837 sq.ft.), "PJ Dunnes" was, for generations, at the very heart of the local community. The traditional grocery shop to the front of the property was a familiar destination for residents of Clonegal and the surrounding countryside, providing everything from fresh bread, milk and locally sourced meats to hardware and everyday essentials. It served as the village's true one-stop shop and remains fondly remembered by generations of local families. Behind its charming façade lies a substantial six-bedroom period residence, rich in original character and timeless features. The accommodation is both spacious and versatile, comprising the former retail unit to the front, a welcoming living room, dining room, kitchen, guest WC and a ground-floor bedroom. Upstairs, the property offers five further generously proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom and an impressive family room, ideal for modern family living. The property further benefits from beautiful triple-glazed sash windows to the front, framing wonderful views over the village centre while combining traditional aesthetics with modern energy efficiency. Offering an exceptional opportunity to acquire one of Clonegal's most recognisable and historically significant homes, "PJ Dunnes" presents endless potential for those seeking a distinctive family residence, a lifestyle property, or a unique restoration and conservation project in a truly special setting.
