Dunmore, Durrow, R32 K0Y8, Durrow, Co. Laois

CBPM Real Estate is delighted to bring to the market this traditional two-storey dwelling offering an exciting restoration and renovation opportunity, situated at Dunmore, Durrow, Co. Laois. Set on approximately 0.21 acres, the property occupies an attractive rural setting and offers excellent potential for a purchaser looking to undertake a substantial renovation project and restore a character property into a unique countryside home. The existing dwelling requires complete renovation and modernisation throughout and is currently unsuitable for occupation. Internally, the property has been substantially stripped back, exposing many of the original stone walls and structural elements and providing a blank canvas from which a new owner can begin the restoration process. Externally, the traditional character of the dwelling remains particularly evident, with its attractive two-storey form, stone construction and distinctive arched detail over the front entrance. The main roof remains in place, while the existing structure provides an excellent starting point for a sympathetic restoration, subject to appropriate structural assessment and any necessary permissions. One of the property's strongest attributes is its setting. The dwelling benefits from its own gated access, with a generous, gravelled driveway providing ample off-street parking. The site extends to approximately 0.21 acres and features established hedging, mature trees, lawned areas and traditional stone boundary walls, creating an attractive setting surrounded by open countryside. The property is situated at Dunmore, within easy reach of Durrow, combining a peaceful rural environment with convenient access to everyday amenities. Durrow is a popular and well-established village offering shops, cafés, schools, sporting and community facilities, along with a strong sense of local community. The location is also particularly convenient for commuters and those requiring access to larger towns and cities. Abbeyleix is approximately 10–15 minutes away, Portlaoise approximately 25–30 minutes and Kilkenny City approximately 25–30 minutes by car, depending on traffic and route. The property is also conveniently positioned for access to both the M7 and M8 motorway networks, providing excellent connectivity towards Dublin, Cork and the wider Midlands. Dublin City can be reached in approximately 1 hour 15–30 minutes, depending on traffic and destination. For purchasers with the vision and appetite to undertake a comprehensive restoration, this property represents an exciting opportunity to breathe new life into a traditional dwelling and create a distinctive countryside home with considerable character. Please note: The property is offered for sale in its present condition and requires complete renovation. Prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the structural condition of the dwelling, boundaries, availability and connection of services, planning requirements and suitability of the property for their intended use.
