This Wexford B&B is up for sale with 13 bedrooms and its own stables
Lemon Grove House is on the market for €495,000.
WITH A LONG driveway to the front and plenty of lush gardens, Lemon Grove House is a detached property with no shortage of space.
It’d certainly suit a large family, but entrepreneurial types should take note too. As a busy B&B this property has an impressive 13 bedrooms.
Lemon Grove Houseis a rare find that sits on mature grounds in close proximity to the town of Enniscorthy, so it provides the best of both worlds – there’s peace and privacy but you’re not in the middle of nowhere either.
All of the bedrooms come in the pristine condition you’d expect from a bed and breakfast. Period style coving surrounds most of the rooms, bringing grandeur and interest to every space.
In 1998, the a two-storey extension added four double sized airy bedrooms (all with en-suite bathrooms) to this already impressive property. The extension also includes a store room, utility room and a seating area.
If you plan on carrying on this B&B’s legacy, and then some, you’re all set: there’s planning permission on the second level of the extension for four more bedrooms.
Upon entering Lemon Grove House, you’re greeted by an elegant entrance hall that features ornate coving, a teak staircase and a feature balcony.
To the left of the entrance hall is one double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. There are three bedrooms, one with a bathroom, and there’s a shower room to the rear of the entrance hall, too.
Perfectly-sized for cooking up big breakfasts or getting the homework done, the open plan, country style kitchen has a dining room and large utility to the rear.
The white cabinetry is contrasted by standout dark beams and a fully tiled floor that’s in mint condition.
The bright dining room with its solid wood floor and patio doors not only fill the space with light, but ensure excellent views of the landscaped gardens that surround the house.
The first floor is home to five bedrooms, four of which have en-suite bathrooms. Large and bright with fitted wardrobes and wood panel covering on the walls, finding a place to host any overnight guests, or even large families, won’t be too tricky.
Lemon Grove House has spacious parking at the front and four stables to the rear, as well as a water feature that complements the scale and charm that this property exudes.
A peaceful and tranquil spot, this home’s location is hard to beat. Enniscorthy is a 20-minute walk away and its location off the N11 means Dublin is just 90 minutes away by car.
