Description

SOLD SOLD Joint agents BOC Properties & Murphy Gubbins Auctioneers are delighted to bring this lakeside gem, Bunglasha Lodge, to the market for sale by private treaty.

This outstanding waterside home sits prominently on 3 acres with the option to purchase 3 adjoining former fishermans stone cottages on a further 6 acres. The property is currently being let on a short term holiday letting basis and while it generates a significant yearly income it will also obviously appeal to an owner occupier who want to live in their own 'little piece of Heaven' by the lake.

With stunning gardens, mature trees, woodlands, a paddock, manicured lawns with uninterrupted views of Lough Derg and the surrounding countryside, this home has the rare privilege of being sold with its own private jetty and some 200m of private lake shoreline.

Located 11km from Killaloe/Ballina, 32km from Limerick City and 48km from Shannon Airport, Bunglasha Lodge provides a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a tranquil haven of peaceful, private lakeside living, with all of the cities amenities close to hand.

An opportunity to purchase a ready to move into waterside haven such as this does not present itself often and the joint agents highly recommend viewing.

The three charming fisherman cottages are located beside the main residence on the waterfront. Dating back the 19th century, these cut stone cottages have planning permission to be extended and transformed into holiday homes. They also provide an opportunity to be transformed into stables (spp), which would be a welcome accompaniment to the already existing paddock or perhaps a home office/studio space (spp) - perfect for modern hybrid working.

Approaching the house one is greeted by a gated, winding gravel driveway to the house, with a commanding limestone portico entrance. The house itself is approximately 471m2 with excellently
apportioned accommodation comprising an entrance hall, family room, formal dining room, living room, kitchen/breakfast room, Utility Room with WC, Master Bedroom with dressing room & ensuite, 2 bedrooms, WC and bathroom at ground floor level. The first floor provides 2 further bedrooms, one of which is ensuite and the main bathroom. There is a large games room/study which could be transformed into further sleeping accommodation if desired and two interconnecting rooms which could be transformed into a private suite. There is a double attached garage to the side of the house.

On entering the property you are welcomed by a large entrance hallway with a double height vaulted timber ceiling and marble floors, there are double doors leading to the spacious living room
which has stunning views of the lake and direct access to the patio area that surrounds the house. There is also a bar area in the living room, a perfect addition for entertaining.

The hallway also provides access to the formal dining room, which connects to the family room leading onto the kitchen. The kitchen can also be accessed from the hallway and provides a wonderful space with fully fitted country kitchen, marble floors, granite worktops and as most of the rest of the house, wonderful lake views. There is also a sizeable utility room with WC and separate boot room.

There is a double garage located off the utility room which is conveniently plumbed for a jacuzzi, sauna, steam room while it also has planning permission to be converted into living space, providing
ample options for a discerning purchaser.

At the opposite end of the entrance hall you will find three generous bedrooms, one of which is the master with ensuite & dressing room and of course, enjoys lake views, with French windows to the
patio.

The high ceilings and light filled living spaces are striking throughout the entire ground floor.

The first floor is welcoming with gently sloping ceilings and generous dormer and Velux windows, taking advantage of every opportunity to benefit from the wonderful views. This level provides 2 further bedrooms, one of which is ensuite. There are two connecting rooms which would make a superb private suite with walk in wardrobe/dressing room or even private living room/reading room if desired. There is a large room which would make a perfect games room or gym but of course could also be used as an additional bedroom.

This home is without doubt a rare and wonderful opportunity and it oozes the potential to be a most impressive family, guest or holiday home.
