This traditional Irish farmhouse in Co Kilkenny is on the market for €295,000

The sale includes a two-storey detached dwelling set on approximately 6.92 acres of land, along with surrounding sheds and outhouses.

The property is approached by way of a long gravel driveway which opens onto a paved courtyard with ample parking space for cars or larger vehicles such as tractors. Inside, the accommodation comprises a reception room, two bedrooms, one bathroom and a kitchen. Adjacent to the main house are three old agricultural sheds and livestock houses – making this the perfect home for those with a farming and livestock background.

A small entrance hall leads the way to the reception room which is a bright and spacious room with wooden flooring. A small stove sits in the hearth of a marble fireplace, bringing warmth to the room. Dark cabinetry lines the walls.

Further inside you’ll find the kitchen with a range cooker amongst the standout features. A small dining table sits in the middle of the room with a couch against one wall for added seating and comfort.

Both bedrooms can be found upstairs – each painted a summery shade of yellow with wooden floors for easy cleaning and a small window allowing natural light to flood in by day – along with the main family bathroom which has tiled floors and walls.

Outside, the property is surrounded by nature with plenty of greenery for new homeowners to cultivate or feed cattle and other animals on. A small picnic table is perched in the back garden, the perfect place from which to enjoy the sunshine come summer. A number of different shrubs and trees have been planted in this area though there is plenty of potential and room for new growth.

Situated in a rural area in Mayhora, approximately 6km from Castlecomer, the property is also relatively close to Kilkenny city which is central to many large urban areas such as Carlow, Portlaoise and Waterford. Dublin is only an hour’s drive away.

Currently on the market for €295,000, viewing of this property is strictly by appointment and can be arranged through Property Partners Buggy. In the meantime, take a peek inside this beautiful home in our gallery below.
