Description

Beautiful period home on about 7.6 acres The Old Rectory is a distinguished former rectory dating from about 1830, occupying a wonderfully private setting on approximately 7.6 acres close to Killybegs and the dramatic Donegal coastline. Extending to about 4,294 sq ft / 399 sq m, this handsome six-bedroom residence is a house of real scale, charm and architectural presence, retaining an impressive range of period detail including sash windows, working shutters, ornate cornicing, centre roses, original fireplaces and a fine staircase. The accommodation is generously proportioned and classically arranged, with elegant reception rooms, a spacious kitchen and bright, well-balanced bedroom accommodation over two floors. The Old Rectory is a warm, dry and immediately usable home, with full central heating, a sound roof, kitchen and white goods in place, and no known structural issues. While many purchasers may wish to carry out modernisation and further enhancement over time, the house already offers comfort, atmosphere and practicality in equal measure. It is therefore likely to appeal both to those seeking a distinctive family home with exceptional character and to those looking for a rewarding heritage property to improve sensitively over time. As a protected structure, the house offers the rarity of genuine period integrity combined with considerable scope for careful upgrading, allowing a new owner to enjoy and evolve a property of real beauty and substance. Outbuildings There is a traditional three-bay, single-storey garden outbuilding set to the rear of the courtyard. This extends to about 21 sq. m / 229 sq. ft. Gardens and Grounds The Old Rectory enjoys mature and private grounds extending to about 3.10 hectares / 7.66 acres, comprising formal gardens, mature trees, woodland, a sheltered wraparound flagstone courtyard, a stream, and the remains of a former walled garden and stable block. For many years the grounds were maintained to a very high standard and they remain an important part of the property's appeal, offering privacy, character and a wonderful sense of setting. While parts of the grounds have been affected by recent severe weather and no longer present quite as they once did, regular upkeep continues and the overall impression remains highly attractive. With further care and attention, there is clear scope for the gardens and grounds to be restored to a particularly beautiful standard. The remains of the former walled garden and stable block add further interest and long-term potential, subject to any necessary planning permissions and consents. Zoning A portion of the lands is currently zoned “primarily residential” under the Donegal County Development Plan 20242030. Further information is available from the selling agents. Any alternative or additional use would remain subject to the necessary planning permissions and statutory consents. Viewing Strictly by private appointment with the joint agents Savills Country Agency and Henry Kee & Son Auctioneers.
