A large and imposing five-bedroom parochial house in a Laois village described as a "beautiful hamlet setting" is on the market for €250,000.

Approached by a tree-lined avenue, the property enjoys great privacy and is set on mature grounds with large gardens adjacent to the magnificently restored church and a two-minute walk to the primary school, GAA club and pub in Raheen village.

The property comprises twin reception rooms with feature fireplaces, a kitchen/ dining space with beautiful countryside views, a guest WC and a spacious home office. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms - three large and a single - and a second bathroom.

Outside, a large front lawn is bound by mature trees and offers excellent privacy, while there is also a second enclosed rear garden. Two large concrete-built drive-in garages are also included on the grounds. The vendors undertake to erect a wall, bridging the gap between the property and adjoining church grounds, which will be agreed with the new purchasers. It is listed with an asking price of €250,000 on Daft.ie.
