Hume Auctioneers are excited to present No. 9 Kellyville to the market, a stunning Victorian residence in mint condition.

Located just off James Fintan Lalor Avenue, the property is a recognisable fixture in Portlaoise, ideally suited as a family residence or indeed a commercial property.

"Once a gated development, Kellyville was originally constructed by the Kelly family and has for generations been noted as the most prestigious address in town," auctioneers shared.

"These 10 handsome homes are distinguished in their charming good looks and magnificent proportions. Many have now returned to their original residential use and this is a magnificent opportunity to acquire a property in what many call the best location in town," they said.

Currently divided as two properties, it comes with vacant possession. The property benefits from a recent modernisation and now comes to the market in mint condition with all the work completed and ready for peaceful enjoyment.

Currently laid out as two properties, the owners carefully designed the remodel so that it can revert to a single use occupancy with no major readjustment.

The ground floor is currently laid out as professional services and includes a kitchen utility, bathroom, and two stunning Victorian reception rooms. There is also a beautiful glazed orangery, which benefits from immense evening sun.

This area retains all the proportions of the original home and would be equally suited as the ground floor of the residence as it maintains all the original features including high ceilings, stained glass doors and period fireplace.

The first floor is currently laid out as a 2-bedroom luxury apartment. Once again careful consideration has been given to the potential to return the property to a 2-storey residence and this can be achieved without any significant outlay.

The rear garden is mature and private and ideal space for a growing family or corporate enjoyment. The garden will be divided with the mews residence being sold separately. There is shared access and off-street parking.

The property is in mint condition throughout, with turnkey finishes and a total renovation. The ground floor has a BER rating of D2, and the first floor has received a rating of C1.

For more on the property, contact Hume Auctioneers. Viewing of the property is recommended.
