LOCATED ON MAIN Street in Portarlington, Co Laois, Fleetwood offers more than meets the eye. 

A terraced house, the four-bed property has a bright and cleverly laid-out interior that spans 1,205 sq ft, plus a large private garden to the rear.

As part of a restoration that took place in recent years, Fleetwood has a new roof and alu-clad sliding sash windows, while the external walls have been insulated. There’s also tasteful contemporary wallpaper throughout the property.

Beyond the updates, the accommodation maintains much of its original charm and character, with tiled floors in the hallway and bathrooms, and ceiling coving and wall paneling throughout.

In the reception room, a stove with a back boiler heats the radiators and makes it the perfect space to unwind on a cold winter night. The kitchen has a classic country-style design, with plenty of both storage and dining space. Off the kitchen is the spacious utility room, which offers further storage options.
