Upon entering, one is struck by the generous proportions of the entrance hall and the easy flow of the accommodation. Although in need of refurbishment and modernisation, there are some wonderful original design details throughout such as the original staircase, ceiling height of 2.6m in the main reception rooms, fanlight window over the entrance hall door which is matched on the stair return.
Positioned on an elevated site on the outskirts of Drimoleague village and approached via a private gated entrance. The drive winds its way elegantly to a large parking area. The rear of the house abuts a minor public road. The orientation of the house and grounds creates a great sense of seclusion and privacy.
The grounds of circa 5.7 acres are laid out mainly in lawn with a wide variety of specimen trees, flowering plants and shrubs.
A real selling feature of the property is the extensive stone-built outbuildings adjoining and adjacent to the main house, which could be suitable for conversion. There is also vehicular and pedestrian access to the rear.
