Room at the inn: Spacious former B&B on the market in Kilkenny for €375k
The current owner is selling up ahead of retirement.
IF YOU’RE LOOKING to buy a property that could also function as a business, Aisling in Mooncoin, Co Kilkenny might be the one for you.
A thirteen-bed residence, Aisling has operated as a B&B for 25 years, with the current owner now looking to sell up and retire.
Located a short stroll from the heart of Mooncoin town, the property is minutes from the banks of the River Suir, while Waterford city is just a 20-minute drive away.
With the accommodation spanning close to 5,000 sq ft, the interior is as spacious as you’d expect. On the ground floor, there’s a large entrance hall with access to the lounge, kitchen and dining room. The lounge is particularly roomy and features a casual dining area, timber-panelled ceilings, a feature brick wall and access to the patio.
There’s also a conservatory, a bathroom and five bedrooms on the ground floor. With several living and dining areas throughout the property, the new owners will have the option to change the function of each room if they please.
Some smart design changes could also make the space feel more modern or contemporary, depending on the buyers’ tastes.
Moving to the first floor, there’s another lounge area here, complete with timber panelled ceilings and Velux windows. Four bedrooms with en suite bathrooms complete the accommodation on this floor. Again, the size of the bedrooms allows the new owners to change the layout or function (for example, to include a home office or study) if they wish.
Aisling benefits from a four-bed self-contained apartment in the main house, with a kitchen, sitting room and two bathrooms here. The apartment has its own entrance, meaning it can work as both private guest accommodation, or as a living space for the owners.
Outside, there are mature gardens to the front and rear, as well as a tennis court. To match the number of bedrooms in the property, there’s plenty of parking to the front.
Aisling, Mooncoin, Co Kilkenny is on the market for €375,000 through Murphy Cusack via Daft.ie.
