Property Description

Positioned prominently at the pivotal corner of Ormonde Street and Lower New Street in the very heart of Kilkenny, this exceptional detached period property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a landmark building of distinction and versatility.

This elegant three-bay, two-storey detached building with converted attic extends to approximately 180 sq. m. (gross internal area). Currently in office use, the property is equally suited to conversion into a prestigious private residence, offering flexibility to discerning purchasers seeking either commercial or residential accommodation in a prime city-centre setting.

The façade is rich in period character, featuring attractive sash windows and a refined Georgian-style front door complete with overhead fanlight, immediately setting a tone of architectural quality and heritage charm. Internally, the property retains an abundance of original features, including an ornate staircase, impressive floor-to-ceiling heights, decorative mouldings, and detailed architraves — all of which combine to create a gracious and light-filled interior environment.

Externally, the property is further enhanced by a private, stone-walled yard enjoying a sunny west-facing orientation — an ideal setting for outdoor amenity space. The yard benefits from a pedestrian access door to the public pathway and includes a spacious powered steel shed, providing excellent storage or potential for a variety of uses.

To the rear, the property adjoins a recently developed public archaeological park incorporating Talbot's Tower and the preserved remains of Kilkenny City Walls, offering a unique and tranquil historic backdrop rarely found in such a central urban location.

Rich in character and architectural integrity, this distinctive building offers exceptional potential and flexibility. Its prominent corner position, coupled with immediate access to all city amenities, sets it apart as a truly special opportunity within Kilkenny’s historic core.
