Description

Exquisite extended B2-rated country home on c. 1.66 acres with additional grant-eligible residence on site and further potential STPP. Appleton Property has the great pleasure of bringing this exceptionally designed and extended 250-year-old traditional cottage to the market. Located at Hillfarm, Narraghmore, just south of Kilcullen, Co. Kildare (off the M9) and set on a private c. 1.66-acre site, this extraordinary home, nestled amid rolling farmland, has been wonderfully reimagined for modern living. With beautiful surrounding gardens and an old apple orchard, this unique property also features a second dwelling, which qualifies for the vacant home grant and associated energy grants, up to 70,000** Euro. Freestanding wooden buildings enhance the property. These are a garden entertainment room, an artist studio with accommodation, a craft workshop, a work-from-home office, and garden sheds. The Exterior The property is approached via a private laneway with two separate entrances. The garden is framed by mature trees and hedgerows, with a seasonal stream lining the south boundary. The main residence, surrounded by a pebble driveway, features Boston Ivy on the facade, changing the exterior's character throughout the year. The site is extensive, with a large lawned area, including an old orchard which produces hazelnuts, cherries and an abundance of apple varieties. A secret fruit-and-vegetable garden is hidden by mature hedgerows. A haven for birds and pollinators, the garden attracts a wide array of biodiversity. Throughout the property, there are spaces to create, entertain, and escape. A covered deck leads off the main living space and offers a wonderful view across the gardens for al fresco dining. Adjacent to the deck is a garden room with its own stove, a setting for dining, entertainment, music, reading, and games. A separate artist’s studio, which includes accommodation, is nestled within the orchard. A large cottage, requiring complete renovation, offers exceptional development potential (subject to appropriate planning permission). The Interior The accommodation in the main house is divided into two distinct parts. The original cottage has been refurbished to provide three bedrooms while retaining and emphasising many of its original features. The modern extension integrates beautifully with the traditional elements. The entire property has been professionally designed to an extremely high level. The primary suite features a bespoke en-suite bathroom with a wet-room shower and a walk-in wardrobe. All three bedrooms have elevated Velux windows in addition to traditional eye-level windows with wooden shutters, allowing natural light to cascade from the high vaulted ceilings above. In the extension, there is a tastefully appointed, fully tiled bathroom, an open-plan living/dining area, and a fully fitted kitchen adjacent, with lime-washed oak semi-solid floors and wooden shutters. The living area opens onto a covered deck via French doors, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor spaces. Energy Energy considerations have been a key feature of this home, with an efficient oil-fired central heating system, a high level of insulation, modern window systems, an elevated multi-fuel inset stove, solar panels with an inverter and battery, a charging port for an electric car, and a B2 BER. A Magical Must-See This property is a sanctuary, located within a few minutes’ drive of the M9 interchange at Kilcullen, yet nestled in the quiet Kildare countryside. The atmosphere and ambience of this idyllic setting cannot be overstated. With the benefits of country living and the conveniences of a modern home, it’s one-of-a-kind. The Old Farmhouse, Narraghmore, is within a short drive of three world-class racecourses, a selection of golf and leisure clubs, the national stud, and areas of natural beauty such as the Wicklow Mountains and Glendalough. The property is conveniently located near Kilcullen, Kildare Town, Newbridge and Naas. These towns offer a range of primary and secondary schools, as well as shopping options such as Kildare Village Outlet and Whitewater Shopping Centre. Dublin Airport is within a 50-minute drive along the motorway network . The quaint village of Narraghmore has a gastro pub (Mel’s of Narraghmore), a community shop with a tearoom called The Old Hardware, and a credit union. Just outside the village are Saint Lawrence’s GAA, Crookstown Millview Athletic Club, and a nature reserve. Nearby cultural spots are Burton House and Gardens, Moone High Cross and Kilkea Castle. Properties of this calibre rarely become available, and viewing, while often highly recommended, is essential in this case. Additional information on the property will be provided on enquiry. Viewing is strictly by appointment only with the sole selling agent, Austin Egan of Appleton Property.
