Description
Oak Lodge is an exceptional and beautiful detached residence, situated within the magnificent grounds of the world-renowned Adare Manor estate. It is set in an enclosed, electronically gated residential enclave, The Demesne, a small private community of just 20 homes. Surrounded by stunning parkland and woodland glades, this peaceful family-friendly haven is within walking distance of the historic village of Adare. This home of rare distinction has been meticulously designed and built to the highest specification in the Arts and Crafts style. It has been created with an emphasis on abundant natural light, comfort and classical elegance. Occupying a secluded and generous 0.64-acre site, every aspect of its design has been carefully considered with light-filled interiors and seamless connections between the house and its surrounding landscaped gardens. This home offers a combination of great space, comfort and prestige rarely available on the open market. A splendid entrance hallway provides a warm, bright and welcoming introduction to Oak Lodge, and conveys the elegant tone and character epitomised in this home. Its white oak floors, custom wooden cabinetry and large sash windows are continued throughout the house. Double doors open into the sitting room, one of three graceful reception rooms. With soaring ceiling height and a magnificent French limestone fireplace, this principal reception room is bathed in natural light from the almost full-height windows. French doors open directly to the garden, creating an effortless flow for both entertaining and family life. The heart of the home lies in the expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, a warm and wonderfully bright space designed with family gatherings in mind. Here, light streams through large sash windows on three sides, framing views of the surrounding gardens. A cosy seating area nestled around a wood burning stove completes this room. A walk-in pantry provides abundant open shelving and a generous countertop, adding superb storage and worktop space. A small discreet study off the corner of the kitchen provides a useful study and computer area. A beautifully appointed library opens from the hall, a serene and inspiring place to read or work. To the front of the house is a third reception room, currently enjoyed as an intimate dining room. A versatile room, it would suit a number of different uses. Catering to the demands of modern working life there is a dedicated office, beautifully equipped with custom built solid wood cabinetry and desk space. Completing the ground floor are a guest WC and a large bright utility room/ mud room. The first floor is home to an exceptional principal suite, featuring a generous bedroom, a luxurious ensuite bathroom, and a walk-in wardrobe. Six further bedrooms provide ample accommodation for family and guests, one of which is ensuite, along with a well-appointed family bathroom. All rooms are bathed in natural light and enjoy beautiful outlooks over the gardens and the private, secure grounds of The Demesne. Externally, the gardens are as impressive as the house itself. Mature trees, established planting, and carefully designed landscaping have created a sense of tranquillity and privacy, while mature hedging ensures seclusion. The grounds have been meticulously maintained since their inception in 2006, with seasonal shrubs and hedging complementing the character of the estate. Doolin stone-paved patio areas offer the perfect backdrop for outdoor dining, entertaining, playing or quiet relaxation. Adjacent to the house stands a substantial two-storey garage. This provides excellent storage and workshop space on the ground floor while upstairs there is a bright and cosy den. Subject to planning permission, this structure could be converted to provide further accommodation, guest quarters, or a studio, adding yet another layer of flexibility to the property. Adare is a charming and historic village in County Limerick dating from the 13th century. With its enchanting, thatched cottages, traditional storefronts and ancient abbeys, it is often described as Ireland's prettiest village. This village, while steeped in history, is a thriving community with excellent amenities for residents and visitors alike. It is home to four well-regarded primary schools: St. Nicholas' National School, St. Joseph's National School, Our Lady's Abbey Girls National School and the Shountrade National school, providing superb quality education for local children. Adare also offers a variety of shops, cafes, restaurants, hotels and pubs, alongside long-established sports clubs and community facilities. Public transport is well served, with regular Bus Éireann services linking the village to Limerick City, Newcastle West, and Tralee, making commuting and travel straightforward. Limerick City is just 16 km (10 miles) away. Home to the University of Limerick, among other prestigious 3rd level institutions, it offers a wide range of services, retail, and educational & employment opportunities. Newcastle West lies about 18 km to the southwest, while smaller towns such as Rathkeale and Patrickswell are within minutes. For international travel, Shannon Airport is less than 40 km (25 miles) away, a convenient 3040-minute drive, providing flights across Europe and across the Atlantic. The combination of rich heritage, strong local amenities, and excellent connectivity make Adare a highly desirable place to visit and a wonderful, vibrant and long-established community in which to live. This home's location within Adare Manor's grounds places it among the finest and most prestigious addresses in the country. Adare Manor, which dates to 1862, was once home to the Earls of Dunraven. Today it is one of Ireland's and Europe's most luxurious resorts, and a world-class golfing destination. Its championship course, redesigned by Tom Fazio, is acclaimed for beauty and challenge. In 2027 it will host the Ryder Cup, bringing global attention to Adare and Ireland. The event will showcase the Manor's elegance, the village's charm, and Ireland's golfing heritage. Hosting such a prestigious competition highlights Adare Manor's standing as a premier international sporting venue. Oak Lodge is a beautiful family home, presented to an exceptional standard, that offers a lifestyle of serenity, comfort and elegance.
