Great cop in Kilcop should lift blues and bring a little colour into your life

A LOCATION near the sea and Woodstown beach, and a pretty unstinting specification, underscore the value of this Kilcop, Co Waterford home.

Priced just above the €1 million mark, at €1.05m, it packs in lots of features and space, and is ready for a family to purchase and unpack at.

Built in a strong, reproduction Georgian style, it is a detached 4,500 sq ft house with its space over three levels, giving scope for at least five bedrooms, as well as a plethora of living options.

It is being marketed by Thomas Reid Auctioneers in Waterford city, about five miles away, and he says the house is only about a 10 minute walk from the beach at Woodstown, so the buyer will have a country and coastal lifestyle, a short drive from the city.

Only very recently constructed, and fully finished out and occupied in the last year, it also has a detached garage on its half acre site — in fact, the modest site size is about the only lack in the overall package, some buyers might feel. Its owners are only selling because their previous home has stuck firm on the property market, and this is now deemed the sellable one.

Features of this well-finished home include strong blue-hued external render, pvc double-glazed sash windows, geothermal-sourced underfloor heating, concrete floors and 10’ ceiling heights at both ground and first floor level.

Then, there’s granite sills, a central vacuum system, multi-room audio ceilings in all the main rooms which have cornicing and moulded skirting and architraves.

Three of the five bedrooms have en suite bathrooms (one shared between two bedrooms.) The master bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and a separate bathroom with Jacuzzi bath and separate wet-room shower section.

Downstairs, the house has a 20’ by 16’ kitchen with solid oak units, granite topped, it has a porcelain tiled floor and integrated appliances. Then, there’s an impressive hall with stairwell, large living room, games room/sitting room each with fireplaces, dining room, lounge with vaulted ceiling and patio access via French doors, plus playroom/office, and guest loo with shower.

The house’s top floor has the relatively compact bedroom number five, with en suite, office and access to storage in the eaves.
