Description
Nestled in the picturesque countryside of Bonane, just a 10-minute drive from the heritage town of Kenmare, this beautifully presented south facing detached residence enjoys an enviable setting with breathtaking mountain and valley views stretching across the surrounding landscape. Standing on a generous site of c. 0.8 acres, the property offers a wonderful balance of privacy, space and natural beauty, making it an ideal family home or peaceful country retreat.
Extending to c. 195 sqm. the accommodation is bright, spacious and thoughtfully laid out. Upon entering, the welcoming entrance hall leads to the heart of the home. To the right is an open-plan kitchen and dining area, where a large picture window frames the spectacular countryside views. Just off the dining area is a cosy living room featuring a wood-burning stove, perfect for relaxing.
Across the hallway is a generous lounge creating a flexible living space that can easily adapt to a range of lifestyle needs. This room could also be converted into a ground-floor bedroom, with the adjacent guest WC offering potential to be reconfigured as an en-suite. The room flows into a stunning conservatory flooded with natural light, offering the perfect place to unwind while taking in the beauty of the surrounding gardens and landscape. A utility room and storage area complete the ground-floor accommodation.
Upstairs, the property boasts three versatile rooms. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. The remaining two interconnecting rooms offer a flexible arrangement. Currently arranged and used as separate bedrooms, these rooms have potential to create an impressive master bedroom using the inner room as a walk-in wardrobe with an en-suite.
Outside, the property continues to impress. The mature grounds are beautifully landscaped with established shrubs, trees and lawned areas, while patio spaces provide ideal spots for outdoor dining and enjoying the spectacular scenery. A large driveway offers ample parking.
A detached studio/workshop provides exceptional versatility and includes a shower room, dedicated storage area and loft storage, making it ideal for a creative studio or a range of lifestyle uses. Further outbuildings, including a garden shed and traditional stone shed offer excellent additional storage.
Surrounded by some of Kerry's most spectacular scenery yet conveniently located close to Kenmare and its excellent amenities, this wonderful home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy country living in an exceptional setting.
