Killoughternane, Idrone East, Borris, Ireland

REA Sothern are delighted to present this exceptional four-bedroom detached cabin-style residence set amidst some of County Carlow’s most breathtaking countryside scenery.

Nestled within the rolling landscape near Borris and enjoying uninterrupted views towards Mount Leinster and the surrounding countryside, this property offers an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a home that blends character, privacy and lifestyle in equal measure.

From the moment you arrive, the charm of this timber-clad residence is immediately apparent.

Internally, the property extends to generously proportioned accommodation throughout, thoughtfully designed to maximise natural light and capture the magnificent surrounding views. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and living area where the feature Stanley cooker creates a warm and inviting focal point, perfectly complementing the rustic cabin aesthetic.

A standout feature of this wonderful home is the elevated balcony area positioned to fully appreciate the spectacular countryside backdrop — an ideal setting for morning coffee, evening sunsets or simply soaking in the peace and beauty of the location.

Adding further to the home’s unique appeal is the inclusion of a private sauna, creating a wonderful wellness element rarely found in residential offerings of this nature.

Externally, the grounds have been carefully maintained and provide ample parking, mature greenery and multiple seating areas from which to enjoy the idyllic surroundings.

This is more than simply a property — it is a lifestyle offering. Whether seeking a permanent residence, countryside escape or unique family home, Killoughternane presents an extraordinary opportunity in one of Carlow’s most picturesque settings.
