About This Property

Rathmoyle provides a wealth of charming features of its period, including original fireplaces and a wealth of internal joinery that includes oak floorboards, a grand oak staircase and beamed ceilings - all reflective of its heritage.

A wisteria-clad recessed front entrance porch leads, via a large oak front door to an impressive reception hall giving access to three elegant and individual reception rooms - the principal sitting room, a dining room and a study/library. Off the sitting room is a particularly spacious conservatory/sunroom with tiled floor and ceiling blinds. The kitchen and adjoining utility room offer excellent scope for modernisation or reconfiguration, with the potential to create an expansive, open-plan kitchen and family living space, subject to the necessary consents.

Upstairs to the first floor landing and four generously proportioned bedrooms, including a substantial principal room with en-suite bathroom. There is a further family bathroom and a separate wc and basin. The elegant staircase continues upwards to the second floor, and two further bedrooms, A continuation of the elegant oak staircase rises to the second floor, where you’ll find two additional bedrooms, ideal for use as guest rooms, home offices, or hobby spaces. These upper levels enjoy elevated views and retain the character and charm that define Rathmoyle throughout.
