A truly special home, The Thatch is a charming 1700s cottage that seamlessly blends historic character with modern elegance. Originally a thatched cottage and once home to a bakery operated by the Keogh family, the property has been thoughtfully extended and lovingly renovated over the years, carefully preserving its original charm while introducing all the comforts of contemporary living. Surrounded by beautifully mature gardens, the property enjoys a wonderfully peaceful and private setting. From the moment you step inside, the cottage exudes warmth, history and authenticity. Terracotta tiled flooring, deep-silled windows and feature stained-glass details combine to create an inviting and timeless atmosphere. At the heart of the home lies the magnificent kitchen and dining area. The kitchen features a classic Aga range, while the dining space offers a large built-in larder unit and an open fireplace, creating a cosy yet highly practical setting for everyday living and entertaining. From the kitchen, a dedicated home office provides the perfect space for remote working or study. Steps lead down to a charming family room or den, a warm and inviting space featuring attractive wood panelling, newly fitted wool carpeting, and a bespoke built-in library. A feature wood-burning stove creates a cosy focal point, while direct access to the gardens allows for a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living, making this an ideal room for relaxation and entertaining alike. The formal dining room, accessed from the kitchen, boasts a striking open inglenook fireplace and two deep-silled windows with traditional shutters. A door from this room leads to the original front entrance, featuring charming half-doors, now cleverly repurposed as a pantry and wine cellar. Flowing from the dining room is a bright and spacious living room with beautiful views over the gardens. This elegant reception room features a large open fireplace with a lovely pine mantel and surround, making it the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining family and friends. The ground floor accommodation includes two double bedrooms, one with an en-suite bathroom, as well as a family bathroom. Both bedrooms enjoy double doors opening directly onto the gardens. The hallway also incorporates a cosy library nook, adding further charm and character to the home. Upstairs, a lovely study area leads to a spacious principal bedroom complete with a dressing area and an en-suite bathroom. Beautifully decorated throughout, this tranquil retreat enjoys stunning views across the surrounding gardens. Having remained in the same ownership since the 1970s, The Thatch is a home rich in history, warmth and care. Its rare combination of original features, thoughtful renovations and idyllic surroundings makes this exceptional property a true hidden gem in the heart of County Wicklow.
