This sweet country cottage with a picket fence and private garden is on the market for €310,000

A charming two-bed property tucked away in Athboy, Co Meath, this country cottage is set on a generous plot of land and comes with a large garden and two-storey three-bay shed with electricity supply.

Quaint yet surprisingly modern, this country cottage in Co Meath comprises an entrance hall, living room, family room, kitchen/dining room, two bedrooms and a family bathroom. 

A gravel drive leads up to the front of the house, with ample off-road parking available for car owners. The front door opens onto the entrance hallway. A bedroom can be found to the left, while the living room is to the right. 

An inviting open fireplace is the main feature in the family room, which is connected to the garden by way of double French doors. 

The kitchen is further inside the house. Cabinets line the walls providing plenty of storage and counter space. A dining table and chairs can be found along one wall. 

Both bedrooms are double rooms, one ensuite, and each with their own private fireplaces. Two large windows – one in each respective bedroom – allow natural light to flood in during golden hour. 

Warm pastel colours and wooden floors dominate the interior while patterned tiles and houseplants bring character to the home.  

Outside, the property includes a large private garden to the rear and a paved patio area to the side of the house – perfect for entertaining friends and family when the weather is good. The sale also includes a three-bay shed with electricity supply and separate vehicular access to the main road suitable for a variety of uses.

Conveniently close to Athboy town centre, the cottage is well-set up with a number of local amenities and facilities nearby.
