something different
This modern cottage in Kilkenny includes a studio and unrivalled river views for €470,000
River Cottage is already a beautiful four-bed but there’s planning permission for more.
SITTING BESIDE THE the river Nore, this is a home nestled in the Kilkenny countryside that’s full of charm, natural light and unique touches. River Cottage’s picturesque riverside location means the water may not be the only thing that flows here – the creative juices are sure to, too. In fact, the current owners are musicians, so the home has already attracted creative types.
In the main house, the double height living room is full of natural light thanks to the picture windows that frame the outside. The kitchen is modern and spacious, made cosy by an antique solid fuel stove.
The cottage has three bedrooms, one of which lives on the ground floor.
The main house has a floor area of 120 m², while the self-contained studio is 43 m². Sitting on 1.2 acres and already in good nick, the next owners might love the fact that there is planning permission granted for a 200 m² studio and workshop, designed by architect Mark Guard.
Accessed from the kitchen as well as the double height space, the garden faces south west and is home to a raised deck and sheltered cottage garden ideal for anyone with a green thumb.
Ideal for guests or family members who want the privacy, the studio has another double height living space with a solid fuel stove, a kitchenette, a shower room and lofted area. It also has a charming sun deck that looks onto the river.
River Cottage provides the best of two worlds – a peaceful countryside life while being a handy ten minutes from the village of Inistioge.
