This traditional Kerry cottage is on the market for €245,00

This traditional Kerry cottage is on the market for €245,00

Sitting on approximately 2.4 acres of woodland garden, this traditional two-bedroom cottage in Co. Kerry is a wonderful blend of old and new.

Dating back to the 1860s, the cottage was renovated and restored in 1996 with works including a rear extension, a new roof, underfloor heating and new plumbing and electrics.

The ground floor accommodation extends to 753 sq. ft. and comprises an open plan kitchen/dining/living area with an original stone fireplace, two double bedrooms, a shower room and a toilet with a utility area. To the side, there is a store room measuring approximately. 11 sqm.

The country-style kitchen is homely and comfortable with fitted units at high and low levels for storage. Appliances include an oven, a gas stove, and a dishwasher.

An original stone fireplace with ornamental wood-burning stove takes pride of place in the living room, heating the space on colder days. Both bedrooms are double bedrooms—one of which has a loft that would fit a variety of needs, including a home office.

Externally, the sale also includes several old stone outbuildings on the land that could potentially be restored or indeed expanded, subject to planning permission.

Located in Tahilla near Sneem in Co. Kerry, the property enjoys a quiet, rural location though it is still well-connected with many amenities in the locality. Situated on the Kerry Way walking route and the scenic Ring of Kerry, it’s the ideal base for nature lovers. It is also just over 15km from the heritage town of Kenmare, 11.6km from the picturesque village of Sneem and less than 3km from Blackwater Pier, the perfect place for swimming and boating.

Currently on the market for €245,000, viewings are by appointment only and can be organised through Sherry FitzGerald Daly. In the meantime, take a tour of this wonderful Kerry cottage in our gallery below.
