A Rare Opportunity to Own a Piece of Meath`s Heritage.
Dating from c.1790, this exceptional four bedroom period residence occupies a prime position in the heart of the historic heritage town of Kells. Extending over three levels and included on the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage, this is a truly unique opportunity to acquire a home of outstanding architectural and historical significance.
Painted in striking traditional colours, the property immediately commands attention on one of Kells` most prominent streets. Its impressive façade showcases many of its original architectural details, including a pitched tiled roof with rendered chimney stacks, rendered walls with quoins, timber sash windows with moulded surrounds and stone sills and an elegant round-arched entrance framed by flanking Ionic columns. A delicate petal-pattern wrought iron fanlight, timber panelled front door and stone steps create a grand first impression, while wrought iron railings set on a limestone plinth wall enhance the property`s timeless character.
Inside, the home is rich in original period features that have been carefully preserved, reflecting the craftsmanship of a bygone era. Elegant reception rooms boast ornate cornicing, picture rails, decorative ceiling roses and magnificent fireplaces, including a beautiful Kilkenny marble fireplace. A striking spiral staircase provides a stunning architectural focal point, while arched windows and other original details further enhance the home`s distinctive character. The traditional AGA adds warmth and authenticity to the kitchen, blending seamlessly with the property`s historic charm.
Beyond the house, the private cobblelock rear garden provides a peaceful retreat in the centre of town. A terraced seating area, mature rockery and a beautiful established plum tree create an inviting outdoor setting, while traditional stone walls and a gateway to the rear laneway add both character and convenience. The property also benefits from valuable off-street private parking for one car.
