KILDARE PROPERTY WATCH: Exceptional Huntsman’s House is set on 1.5 acres

Huntsman's House is an exceptional two storey house set on about 1.5 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds.

This impressive property combines the best of original classic Edwardian architecture with tasteful and sympathetic additions designed by award winning architect Paul Brazil.

Set over two floors, the impressive accommodation extends to about 484m2/ 5,209 sq. ft. and comes to the market in excellent condition.

On the ground floor, which is ideally suited for families, the three period, formal living spaces to the front of the house are well laid out and light filled while the ‘everyday’ living quarters to the rear of the house are cosy, comfortable and ideal for modern family living.

There are five reception rooms in total including a country style, open plan kitchen/dining room with access to an outside dining terrace.

Upstairs there is a magnificent master suite with two walk-in wardrobes and an en-suite.

There are a further five bedrooms with three en-suite. Most of the rooms have feature high ceilings, bright aspects, and views of the gardens. There is also a family bathroom that is well presented.

One of the most attractive features of Huntsman House is the outside space. Originally designed by Elma Fenton, a silver medallist at the Chelsea Flower Show, the garden is laid to lawn with a perimeter of mature hedging and trees.

The privacy the garden offers is unrivalled as well as the peaceful atmosphere the garden creates.

The west facing aspect means that the garden is used year-round especially in the summer when the current owners can dine on the terrace just off the kitchen. The canal adjoins the property on the west side.

The owners and their children have enjoyed this amenity for many years using the canal for all types of water activities.

There is also a spacious garage on site (located beside the secondary entrance) which is multifunctional and could be converted into a large home office (S.P.P.) if needs be.

This stunning property has a guide price of €1,250,000 and is brought to the market by joint agents Sherry FitzGerald O’Reilly phone 045 866466/[email protected] and Savills phone 01 6634350 [email protected].
