Description

Charming two-storey semi-detached farmhouse, full of character, creativity and charm. This is a home with a real sense of personality. From the moment you step through the door, there is an unmistakable warmth and individuality that makes this property feel truly special, it has recently been sympathetically restored and modernised and retains many original features. Mays Cottage is a unique part of Blessington's history. Built in the 1930s for the May family, it replaced their original home, which was lost beneath the waters of the Poulaphouca Reservoir. Beautiful original clay floor tiles welcome you into the entrance hall and lead through to the cosy living room, where built-in shelving, a warm wooden floor and a wood-burning stove create a wonderfully inviting space. A charming cottage-style door leads through to the original kitchen area, but it is the stunning extension to the rear that really captures the imagination. Designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind, the kitchen/dining space is bright, spacious and full of character. The colourful yellow cabinetry, natural wooden flooring and exposed beams give the room a wonderfully cheerful and relaxed feel, while the extensive glazing allows natural light to flood in and makes the most of the beautiful views across the surrounding countryside. Large sliding doors open directly onto the patio, creating an effortless connection between the house and garden. Upstairs are two beautifully finished bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom, providing comfortable and peaceful accommodation. Extensive enclosed gardens to the front, rear and side, extending to circa. 0.75 acres. comprising lawns, patios, mature trees and shrubs, raised vegetable beds, fruit trees and berry bushes. (The paddock furthest from the house is currently rented to a roadworks crew as a storage yard. The new owners have the choice to cancel or continue this arrangement.) A wonderfully individual home with bags of character, beautiful countryside views and a relaxed, creative feel — the kind of property that feels like a home from the moment you arrive. LOCATION Situated on a quiet lane surrounded by breathtaking countryside views and located on the shore of Blessington Lake, this home comes with a beautiful, secluded lake walk right on its doorstep. Mays Cottage has the feel of a remote countryside retreat, while being a short walk to Blessington village and its many supermarkets, cafes, gyms, etc. Blessington: c. 2.2kms Naas: c. 14kms Citywest: c. 16kms Dublin / M50: c. 20kms ACCOMMODATION LIVING ROOM Dual aspect, wooden flooring, stove with back boiler, built-in entertainment centre/bookcase, door to storage closet, wood panelled wall.
