Property Description

Occupying an enviable position in the heart of Ballyhea Village, this exceptionally well-maintained detached bungalow offers an outstanding opportunity to acquire a family home in one of North Cork's most welcoming rural communities. Set on a generous, level site with uninterrupted views towards the Ballyhoura Mountains, the property combines practical family living with a peaceful village setting, all within easy reach of Charleville, Buttevant and the N20.
One of the property's most appealing features is its location. Ballyhea National School and preschool are positioned just a short stroll from the front gate, allowing children to walk safely to and from school each day—a rarity in today's market and a feature that will undoubtedly appeal to growing families.
The village itself enjoys a strong sense of community, offering a local shop, church, highly regarded GAA club and a variety of community facilities, creating an excellent environment in which to raise a family.
Approached by a tarmacadam driveway, the property enjoys an attractive and private setting. A neatly maintained front garden creates an inviting first impression, while the driveway continues to the side and rear of the residence providing generous parking and easy access throughout the site.
To the rear, the gardens have been thoughtfully arranged to provide both functionality and privacy. An enclosed patio offers an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining, while a range of useful outbuildings, workshops and storage sheds provide excellent ancillary accommodation. Beyond these lies a well-maintained paddock, offering additional versatility for purchasers seeking space for gardening, hobby farming or recreational use.
Throughout the grounds, the standard of maintenance is immediately evident, reflecting the exceptional care invested by the current owners over many years.
The accommodation has been carefully maintained and is presented in excellent decorative order throughout. An entrance porch opens into a welcoming central hallway with generous ceiling heights, setting the tone for the bright and spacious accommodation beyond. The principal living room is filled with natural light and centres around a solid fuel stove with fitted cabinetry, creating a warm and comfortable reception room ideally suited to everyday family life.
To the rear of the property, an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family living space forms the heart of the home. Extensive glazing frames attractive views across the gardens while allowing sunlight to flood the interior throughout the day. The kitchen provides generous storage with an excellent range of fitted units, extensive worktop space and practical preparation areas. A solid fuel stove with brick surround and fitted furniture further enhances the welcoming atmosphere, creating a room equally suited to family gatherings and entertaining.
The family bathroom is finished in a timeless monochrome style and is fitted with a electric shower.
There are four well-proportioned bedrooms, comprising two generous double bedrooms and two comfortable single bedrooms, offering flexible accommodation for families, guests or home office use. Flooring throughout consists of a tasteful combination of solid timber and quality laminate finishes, complementing the overall presentation of the property.
Properties of this quality and presentation, particularly within established village settings such as Ballyhea, rarely become available. Combining beautifully maintained accommodation, extensive outbuildings, generous gardens and spectacular views towards the Ballyhoura Mountains, this is a home ideally suited to family living while offering excellent potential for those seeking additional workspace or outdoor pursuits.
A property where location, presentation and practicality come together to create an exceptional family home.
