IF LIVING IN a beautiful thatched cottage is your idea of a fairytale, it might be worth checking out this unique four-bedroom home in Delgany, Co Wicklow before it’s snapped up.

Located in the heart of Delgany, it has all the romantic charm of a country cottage with the comfort of modern conveniences. It’s positioned on a third of an acre and has a south-facing orientation which enjoys the sun in both the afternoon and evening.

There’s also a separate, detached granny flat with its own kitchen, living room, bathroom and gallery-style bedroom.

The interior has been thoughtfully decorated with high quality finishes throughout. The reception rooms all open in to one another and the drawing room and kitchen open out to the beautiful gardens which surround the house.

The cottage was originally built around 1950 and has been consistently restored and updated to provide all the comforts of a luxurious, modern home. A few of its rooms feature original exposed duck egg blue wooden beams, which run across the ceilings.
