LOCATED RIGHT BY the Waterford Greenway and the River Suir, Knockhouse offers the chance to live among some of the best views in the southeast.

And location aside, the six-bed property – on the market for €1,575,000 through RE/MAX – would make for a very special place to call home.

It covers a sizeable 865 sq m (9,310 sq ft) over three floors, including the basement and extensive attic space. 

The grounds span seven acres, including two paddocks and a stable block. Kids will be kept busy with a large outdoor play area, while those of all ages can spend time on the on-site tennis court.

Built in 2000, Knockhouse creates a lasting first impression from the moment you step through the front door. A large split staircase is the focal point of the room, and feature windows fill the space with natural light.

There are plenty of spots to both unwind and to entertain at the property, including a drawing room, dining room, family room and sunroom. The decor throughout the house is uncomplicated and features mainly neutral tones, making it an easy job for the new owners to add their own touch.

The kitchen offers a great amount of storage and preparation space for keen home cooks, including a large centre island with seating for six guests and a separate utility room. Two bathrooms and a cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation. 

At first floor level, the landing offers itself as another living space. This would be the perfect spot to create a home library or working area, while double doors open to a balcony with panoramic countryside views.

The master suite takes up an entire wing of the first floor, with a walk-in wardrobe, nursery and en suite bathroom here. There are five further double bedrooms at this level, as well as two en suite bathrooms and the family bathroom.

The attic has been converted to provide further storage capacity, while at basement level there’s a games room, home office, shower room and cellar. This would make for an ideal den for younger members of the family, or a cinema room with some updates. 

Even with such a large floor area, the residence has a B3 energy rating. Knockhouse features Pilkington K window glazing throughout, as well as underfloor heating and a pressurised water system.
