Former Parochial House For Sale in Co. Tipperary

The property comprises a three-bay, two-storey former presbytery, originally constructed c. late 1800s, and situated on a particularly generous site of c. 0.72ha / 1.8 acres, subject of Registered Folio TY23208.

This property now qualifies for the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant under the Croí Cónaithe (Towns) Fund, offering financial assistance, should it be required, toward refurbishment and upgrade works, subject to the relevant terms and eligibility criteria.

This is a most impressive and distinctive period residence with little comparable locally given its scale, architectural character, courtyard buildings, acreage and strategic proximity to Thurles, Kilkenny and the M8 Motorway network.

The accommodation extends to approx. 2,732 sqft / 254 sqm (excluding outbuildings) and presents in very good condition throughout, having been well maintained, decorated and upgraded over the years.

To the rear lies a most attractive enclosed courtyard with original two-storey and single-storey stone outbuildings. These buildings offer excellent scope for conversion to further residential accommodation, guest annex, home office suites, studio space or a variety of other ancillary uses (subject to the necessary consents), thereby significantly enhancing the flexibility and long-term potential of the property.

Extensive mature gardens surround the residence, providing privacy, amenity space and further potential for extensions or additional outbuildings if desired.

The property is also noted on the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage (Reg. No. 22204306) and is therefore deemed a Protected or ‘Listed’ Structure.

A virtual tour link can be supplied on request with actual viewings strictly by appointment.
