Property Description
Mark Nestor Property Services are delighted to present Rockfield House, Ardagawna, Drum a charming and extensively refurbished three-bedroom farmhouse extending to approximately 98 sq. m., set on approximately 1.45 acres with extensive outbuildings, a large yard, gardens and fenced field.
Enjoying a peaceful countryside setting while remaining approximately 13 minutes' drive from Athlone, Rockfield House offers an increasingly difficult-to-find combination of country living, generous outdoor space, useful outbuildings and excellent accessibility to town.
For buyers seeking more than simply a house, the property offers enormous appeal. The residence is complemented by three substantial sheds, a haybarn, lean-to/fuel store, large gravelled yard, ample parking and a fenced field, providing excellent scope for storage, workshop use, hobby farming, keeping animals or simply enjoying the freedom and privacy of a larger country property.
The Residence:
The farmhouse itself has undergone an extensive programme of refurbishment and improvement works while retaining much of the character associated with a traditional country home.
Internally, the accommodation is bright, comfortable and well presented. A welcoming entrance hall leads through to the principal living accommodation. The sitting room is a particularly comfortable space, featuring timber-style flooring and a Stanley solid-fuel stove which creates a warm focal point within the room. The fitted kitchen/dining room provides generous storage and workspace together with plenty of room for everyday dining. A charming traditional-style half door to the rear is a particularly attractive feature and adds to the farmhouse character of the property. A newly installed ground-floor wet room provides additional practicality.
Upstairs, the accommodation comprises three bedrooms, including a generous main bedroom with its own en-suite, together with a bright landing area.

Outside is where Rockfield House really comes into its own. The property stands on approximately 1.45 acres, providing considerably more outdoor space than a typical residential property within this price range. The grounds have undergone extensive improvement works and include attractive front and rear garden areas, a newly concreted patio, fruit trees, a substantial gravelled yard, ample private parking and a fenced field. The setting provides plenty of space for purchasers looking to enjoy country living while remaining within easy reach of Athlone.

Three sheds
Electricity available to two sheds
Electricity and plumbing available to another
Haybarn
Lean-to / fuel store
Large gravelled yard
Fenced field
Extensive private parking
This additional space opens up numerous possibilities and will be particularly attractive to purchasers requiring workshop space, storage for equipment or vehicles, hobby farming facilities or simply additional space that would be extremely difficult to find within a conventional residential development.

This allows purchasers to enjoy the privacy and space associated with country living without sacrificing convenient access to Athlone's shops, schools, employment centres, sporting facilities, restaurants and extensive range of services and amenities.

For buyers searching for privacy, outdoor space and flexibility without taking on a major renovation project, Rockfield House deserves serious consideration.
