At the centre of Lismore, beneath the iconic Lismore Cathedral, lies this two-bedroom cottage. Dating back to the 1840s and once part of the Lismore Castle estate, the property is a significant piece of local history.
After a meticulous renovation in the mid-2000s, the cottage preserves its heritage, while offering contemporary comforts.
You enter the spacious open-plan living room, where original features, such as the exposed brick walls and the open-hearth fireplace, complete with a large stove and back boiler, radiate a welcoming atmosphere. The warmth from the stove fills the room, while the designer spiral staircase catches the eye, making the space feel intimate yet airy.
To the left, you will find a cosy ground-floor bedroom with views of the quiet street outside. Adjacent to the bedroom, is a newly renovated shower room, combining classic style with modern functionality.
At the rear of the cottage, the kitchen and dining area exude modern sophistication. The kitchen boasts bespoke units, an Oak countertop, and a Belling oven. Velux windows above bathe the room in natural light, while French doors open onto the garden.
The Liscannor stone floor throughout the ground floor adds to this property’s timeless charm, blending perfectly with the exposed brick for a rustic yet refined look.
The first floor features a spacious second bedroom, filled with natural light from Velux windows overlooking both the cathedral and the garden. The open fireplace adds warmth and character, while built-in wardrobes provide practical storage. A small attic access leads to even more hidden space for your belongings.
The 60-foot rear garden continues to impress, with beautiful views of the cathedral and a low-maintenance design, including a shed and outdoor lighting.
The property’s prime location offers the perfect balance of town centre vibrancy and the tranquillity of a secluded setting, with shops, restaurants, and scenic walks by the Blackwater River just moments away.
Whether you are drawn to its historic charm, the modern comforts, or the tranquil setting, this beautifully restored cottage is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Lismore’s rich heritage.
