Tour this historic farmhouse with heaps of potential in the heart of Co Carlow
Dunphy’s in St Mullins is on the market for €850,000.
SET WITHIN THE postcard-perfect village of St Mullins, Co Carlow, this beautiful stone-built property exudes historic charm, modern living and plenty of potential. With a traditional four-bed farmhouse at its heart and four beautifully renovated self-contained apartments, Dunphy’s Farmhouse and Apartments makes for an interesting lifestyle that’s full of business, as well as personal, potential.
The main house is a lovingly restored traditional farmhouse, thoughtfully extended to create a bright and spacious family home. A welcoming hallway leads into a cosy sitting room complete with a fireplace, while the country kitchen, with its Aga cooker, feels like the soul of the home.
The ground floor also offers a flexible-use bedroom or study. Upstairs, the main bedroom is joined by two more bedrooms and a family bathroom, all warmed by oil-fired central heating.
Surrounding the farmhouse, a converted outbuilding houses three distinctive apartments and a self-contained studio. All benefit from exposed granite stonework, bespoke kitchens and exceptional craftsmanship.
The Raven and The Swallow are spacious two-bed homes with two bathrooms and airy open plan living spaces.
The Honey Bee is a one-bed retreat with stylish interiors.
The Studio is a compact, single-level space perfect for short-term lets or guests who need their privacy.
Each has been finished to a high standard, creating inviting spaces ideal for holiday rentals or long-term tenancies.
A large central courtyard, enclosed by a secure stone wall and gated entrance, provides a wonderful setting for outdoor entertaining. Additional outbuildings offer further flexibility, whether for workshops, creative studios or storage.
Nestled between the Blackstairs Mountains and Brandon Hill, St Mullins is a peaceful riverside gem on the River Barrow. Known for its medieval heritage site and scenic walks, the village also offers a café, pub, outdoor activities and handy transport links. Nearby Graiguenamanagh provides everyday amenities, while Kilkenny, Waterford and Dublin are all within easy reach.
Opportunities like this, combining a family home, ready-to-go rental units and a sought-after location, don’t come along every day. Whether you’re looking for a home for a large multi-generational family, a lifestyle change or a business venture, Dunphy’s Farmhouse and Apartments ticks a lot of boxes.
