Description
A traditional schoolhouse built in 1923, offering three bedrooms, and a beautiful, unique permanent residence or holiday home. While the property would benefit from some modernisation and refurbishment, it is rich in character and offers exceptional potential.
Steeped in history and full of character, this beautifully converted old schoolhouse offers a rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique home in the heart of the spectacular Rossguill Peninsula. Nestled in the peaceful countryside of Raplagh, just minutes from the bustling seaside village of Downings, this charming three-bedroom property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of local heritage.
Originally serving as the local schoolhouse, the property has been thoughtfully transformed into a warm and welcoming family home while retaining many of the features that reflect its rich heritage. This bright, spacious property includes three generously proportioned bedrooms, and inviting living spaces, creating a home that is both practical and full of personality.
Enjoying both privacy and tranquillity while remaining within easy reach of many attractions, makes this property even more desirable. The award-winning sandy beaches at Downings and Tramore are just a short drive away, offering breathtaking Atlantic views, swimming, surfing, and coastal walks, while golf enthusiasts will appreciate the close proximity to the renowned Rosapenna Golf Resort, home to three championship golf courses that attract visitors from around the world.
The welcoming village of Downings offers an excellent selection of caf?s, restaurants, traditional pubs, shops, and everyday amenities, while nearby Carrigart provides additional services, making this an ideal location for both permanent living and holiday escapes.
Whether you are searching for a distinctive family home, a peaceful coastal retreat, or an exceptional investment opportunity, this former schoolhouse is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique home in an outstanding location. An early appointment to view is highly recommended.
