Property Description

Mark Nestor Property Services are delighted to present Rockfield House, a beautifully refurbished three-bedroom farmhouse enjoying a peaceful countryside setting while remaining conveniently located approximately 13 minutes' drive from Athlone town centre.

Offering the best of both worlds, Rockfield House combines the space, privacy and character of rural living with excellent accessibility to Athlone and its wide range of shops, schools, services and amenities.

The current owners have undertaken an extensive programme of refurbishment and improvement works, resulting in a home that retains the character of a traditional farmhouse while offering the convenience expected of a modern property.

Internally, the accommodation is bright, comfortable and well presented. The heart of the home is the newly fitted kitchen, providing a fresh and functional space for everyday family living. A welcoming sitting room features a stanley solid-fuel stove, creating a warm focal point within the room, while the entrance hall, stairs and landing connect the accommodation throughout the property. There are three bedrooms, including a generous main bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom. A newly installed ground-floor wet room/bathroom provides additional practicality and makes the property suitable for a wide variety of purchasers. One particularly charming detail is the traditional-style half door to the rear, adding further character to the farmhouse.

A significant programme of improvement works has been carried out to the property, including:

• Roof re-felted with renewed battens and slates
• Property completely rewired
• Property re-plumbed
• Central heating installed
• Dual oil and solid-fuel heating system
• New double-glazed windows
• New composite front and rear doors
• Walls slabbed and plastered
• Attic insulated
• New fitted kitchen
• New downstairs wet room/bathroom
• Main bedroom en-suite
• Stanley stove
• Property wired for broadband/internet
• Wired for burglar alarm
• Three smoke alarms and one heat alarm
• Porch flat roof re-felted

Outside is where this property really distinguishes itself. The grounds have been extensively improved, with approximately 82 mature trees removed, the gardens re-landscaped and re-lawned, and the yard resurfaced with gravel. There are attractive front and rear gardens, with fruit trees planted within the rear garden and a newly concreted patio providing an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining.

The property also benefits from an impressive range of outbuildings, comprising of three sheds, with electricity available to two and electricity and plumbing to another, haybarn, lean-to/fuel shed, fenced field, large gravelled yard and ample private parking. A new septic tank has also been installed, replacing the previous system.

The combination of the field, yard and outbuildings opens the property up to a wide variety of uses and will particularly appeal to those looking for additional storage, workshop space, hobby farming possibilities or simply room to enjoy a more spacious rural lifestyle.

Properties offering the character of a traditional farmhouse together with this level of refurbishment, outdoor space and useful outbuildings can be difficult to find. With much of the major renovation work already completed, this property presents an exciting opportunity for its next owner to enjoy the charm and space of country living without taking on a major refurbishment project.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the house, grounds and extensive range of outbuildings on offer.
