CO. TIPPERARY: €750,000:A renovated Georgian house in the Tipperary countryside has a coach-house conversion that is currently run as a holiday let
A GEORGIAN house set on just under 17 acres of land near Borrisokane in Co Tipperary has come on the market through joint agents Colliers and Sherry FitzGerald asking €750,000.
Ballylina Lodge is located in good sporting country within easy reach of Lough Derg and the river Shannon.
A mile from the village of Ballingarry, and 12 miles from Nenagh, the house is located off a quiet country road at the end of a long driveway.
The five-bedroom house is in turnkey condition having been renovated by the current owners in an elegant, understated style. The grounds include a number of outbuildings, including a former coach-house recently converted into a two-bedroom guest apartment currently run as a holiday let.
There is also a large workshop and well as stables.
The main house has three reception rooms, a sunroom, and a large light-filled kitchen with a polished flagstone floor and an Aga.
The first of the bedrooms is on the ground floor, along with a shower room and a study.
Upstairs, the main bedroom has a dressing room and an en suite while two further bedrooms share an attractive bathroom with a rolltop bath.
Beside the house is a gravelled yard with a large cut-stone building of around 102sq m (1,100sq ft) with the space divided into a workshop, garage and store room.
Beyond lies an outer stable yard comprising loose boxes and feed stores as well as an original cow byre and coach-house with guest apartment above. Called the Stone Loft, the architect designed loft has around 84sq m (900sq ft), much of it given over to an open plan living/dining/kitchen area with French doors leading to large timber deck. The Stone Loft has its own garden and parking space.
Ballingarry, the local village has a shop and filling station and the heritage town of Birr is the nearest town, with a variety of shops including a large Tesco store.
Ballylina’s lands are bordered by a stream and two areas of shelter belt. They are in permanent pasture with four level, well-fenced paddocks and water laid on.
