Kilmeaden House, Kilmeaden, Kilmeadan, Co. Waterford, X91EH70 - €1,195,000

Kilmeaden House, a stunning former rectory built in 1806, stands as a magnificent testament to Georgian architecture, lovingly preserved and upgraded for contemporary living. Nestled in the lush countryside, this expansive property is set on 12 acres of private, secluded grounds, providing not only a sense of grandeur but also an intimate connection with nature. From its origins as a Church of Ireland rectory, through its years with the esteemed Congreve family, to its current owners, Kilmeaden House has seen only three custodians in over two centuries, each contributing to its enduring legacy as a treasured family home.

The house, with its expansive 462 square meters of living space, is a treasure trove of period details that speak to its rich history. Walking up to the property, one is immediately struck by the classical symmetry and elegance characteristic of the Georgian era. The front door, crowned by an exquisite fanlight, invites visitors into a world where history and modernity coexist in harmony. Inside, the home has maintained many of the features that give it its unique charm, from intricately detailed cornicing to grand marble fireplaces that serve as focal points in many of the rooms.
