நிறைய 1, விலை 250000.00, Quillsen - Cherrytree Cottage, Oberstown, Tara, Co Meath

Cherrytree is a beautiful Parnellite stone characterful cottage built in 1880. In recent years, this unique home has been extensively but sympathetically refurbished and retrofitted. Moreover, it has been nurtured by its current exacting owner. Extensive electrical, plumbing, heating and insulation upgrades were undertaken, together with the fitting of an Oak painted kitchen, flooring, and fully tiled bathroom with rainfall shower, this property has been transformed into the comfortable and elegant home that it is today, totally conducive with modern day living. Add to that, planning permission has recently been obtained to extend the residence, notwithstanding that for most, this gem is perfect as it is.

This beautiful semi-detached cottage residence sits on just over a quarter of an acre of grounds and gardens, with the rear garden predominately laid under lawn with a fabulous Cherry tree at its centre. There is a Loghouse style home office sited there too, suitable for a multitude of uses.
To the front, in the main, is of pebble surface, providing for ample parking for residents and their guests.

Set in the heart of the Boyne Valley, amongst rolling countryside, Cherrytree Cottage is located some 5km, as the crow flies, west of the Hill of Tara, the ancient ceremonial and burial site and seat of the High Kings of Ireland that also features in Irish mythology. Just one kilometre or so from Cherrytree Cottage is Oberstown Cross Roads with Swans public house and shop. A little further up one will find both St Colmcille’s primary school and church (RC). Nearby you will also find Fox’s Castle Lounge and ‘Mrs O’s’ – J. O’Connell’s iconic public house and horse stables featured in the Guinness ‘White Christmas’ advertisement.
