Charming, yet surprisingly modern: This quaint stone cottage is on the market for €299,000

Modern yet homely, this cosy stone cottage makes the most of its gorgeous surroundings with plenty of windows and a beautiful patio/garden area out back. 

Nestled down a secluded laneway not far from the Wexford coastline, Grange Lodge is a beautiful cut stone detached cottage dating back to the 1720s. Masterfully extended and refurbished in 2016 by its current owners, the property combines modern amenities with old-time comfort for the ultimate in quiet country living. 

Inside, the palate is neutral throughout, enhanced by high ceilings and an open-plan living space which helps to bring light and warmth to the building. The tiled entrance hall with its double-height ceiling and wainscotting leads into the living room, where you’ll find a wood-burning stove with back boiler.

A statement wooden mantle draws the eye, with a large bay window another prominent feature. 

Further inside the house is the kitchen-cum-dining room. This room has been fitted with a bespoke island (with hob) and has ample storage in the form of several glass-fronted storage units. Other appliances include a built-in double oven, a microwave and a stainless steel sink unit with drainer. 

A handsome wooden table with benches sits to the other side of the room, with a leather sofa providing more seating space. Double glass doors open out onto the patio, which has a handsome wooden fence surrounding it. 

The gardens are landscaped with perennials to complement the gorgeous country views which can be seen from every window in the house. The property also has plenty off off-street parking to both the front and the rear. 

Both bedrooms have been fitted with laminate flooring. The master bedroom also features an ensuite bathroom with rainfall shower, recessed lighting and a large walk-in wardrobe. The main family bathroom is a fully tiled suite with a rainfall shower and a wall-hung mirror with integrated light. Elsewhere in the property, the ulitilty room has been fully wired with internet meaning it could be converted into a home office should the need arise. 

Currently on the market for €299,000, you can take a full tour of the property, which is on sale through Sherry FitzGerald Radford, in our gallery below.
