Property Description

Nestled in the heart of North Wexford’s coastal countryside, “Ballaghablake” is perfectly positioned in the highly sought-after village of Curracloe, one of Ireland’s most popular holiday destinations. Celebrated for its breathtaking scenery, this area is home to the renowned ‘Blue Flag’ beach that stretches for over 10km from The Raven Point to Ballyconnigar Head. Immortalised in the opening scenes of Saving Private Ryan, Curracloe Beach attracts swimmers, surfers, walkers and nature lovers year-round. Just beyond the shoreline lies The Raven Nature Reserve, a haven for biodiversity and one of the most beautiful woodland walks in the southeast.

Curracloe village offers a warm and welcoming community with amenities including Curracloe National School, Hotel Curracloe & Tavern Bar, a church, post office, service station and a hair salon all within walking distance. The subject property is located directly adjacent to Curracloe United A.F.C. and just a short drive to Shelmaliers GAA Club, perfect for families with sporting interests. The nearby villages of Screen and Castlebridge also provide a further array of local services, schools, cafés and shops.

The area’s appeal is set to grow further with the recent opening of the Ravenport Resort and the highly anticipated 18-hole championship golf course, scheduled to open in 2026 and elevating Curracloe into a premier leisure destination. Wexford Town is less than 15 minutes’ drive away, offering an excellent range of shops, restaurants, secondary schools and cultural attractions, with daily school transport links from the village. Whether as a peaceful coastal residence or a forever family home, “Ballaghablake” offers the best of all worlds.

Kehoe & Assoc. are proud to present this family home of distinction to market. Approached through imposing stone entrance piers with electric wrought iron gates, “Ballaghablake” instantly sets a tone of elegance, privacy, and intrigue. Nestled within a lush c. 0.40 hectare / 0.99 acre site of exceptional maturity and character, the property reveals little of its generous proportions from the roadside. As you follow the tarmacadam driveway through thriving foliage and established landscaping, a home of rare quality slowly emerges filled with light, space, and handcrafted detail.

Extending to c. 214 sq.m. / 2,303 sq.ft., this is a deceptively spacious five-bedroom residence, crafted to exacting standards. Inside, every element tells a story of care, vision, and permanence. Solid oak floors run throughout the living accommodation, complemented by bespoke oak doors, a handcrafted oak stairwell and dramatic exposed oak beams in the entrance hallway. Feature stone walls in both the hallway and kitchen / dining area bring a tactile richness and visual warmth to the interiors.

The sitting room is a standout space, intimate yet expansive, centred around a freestanding solid fuel stove with traditional brick surround and a reclaimed Amish barn oak floor. The heart of the home lies in the handcrafted kitchen and dining area, where solid oak countertops, custom cabinetry, and a breakfast bar create a harmonious blend of warmth and modern flair. Framed by triple-aspect windows and a sunny south-facing orientation, this elevated space is bathed in natural light and enjoys uninterrupted countryside views stretching all the way to Rosslare Harbour. From here, doors open to a wraparound Indian sandstone patio adjacent to a tranquil koi and goldfish pond, a remarkable outdoor centrepiece that captures the peaceful soul of the garden.

The five double bedrooms are all generously sized, with ample space for freestanding or fitted wardrobes. The master suite enjoys a reclaimed Amish barn oak feature wall and a bright ensuite with pump shower. A separate dressing room and fully fitted utility room add practicality and flexibility. On the first floor, a spacious landing, flooded with light, has been cleverly adapted into a home office with integrated desk space, ideal for remote work or study.

Outside, the grounds are a carefully curated blend of structure and softness. Winding gravel paths, bold planting, and a variety of seating areas create a garden of seasonal interest and sanctuary. A firepit area to the rear is perfect for long summer evenings with family and friends. The southerly aspect bathes the entire home and garden in light throughout the day, while mature boundaries ensure complete privacy.

Included on the folio is a substantial domestic shed extending to c. 117 sq.m. / 1,259 sq.ft., accessed by a separate entrance. The current owners acquired an adjoining site in 2014 which is now incorporated into the c. 0.40 hectare / 0.99 acre plot available for sale. With clear development potential whether as a residential dwelling (subject to planning permission), studio, or workshop, this space offers a wealth of future opportunity in a location of growing prestige.

Fully alarmed, thoughtfully designed, and maintained with genuine pride, “Ballaghablake” is a one-of-a-kind residence that balances handcrafted beauty with family function. Homes of this calibre and character rarely come to market in such a coveted coastal setting. For those seeking tranquillity, design excellence, and a life in harmony with nature, “Ballaghablake” is a rare and remarkable opportunity.
