Magnificent Edwardian gem makes ideal family home in Tullamore

Sherry FitzGerald Lewis Hamill are delighted to offer to the market a breathtaking Edwardian redbrick, which would make an ideal family home near the bustling town of Tullamore.

The Old Rectory, Blacklion, Blueball, County Offaly, is a four-bed, two-bath, 189 sqm detached residence which has been outfitted to suit the needs of modern family.

Put on the market for €725,000, the magnificent Edwardian residence was originally built in 1908.

The property is half redbrick and render and looks splendid with a profusion of mature trees such as beech, oak, ash, and extensive lawns surrounding the house.

The property displays stunning architectural features of the Edwardian era and yet is an exceptionally comfortable and supremely elegant home perfectly suitable for modern family living.

The entrance hallway sets the tone for the accommodation to follow with its caustic tiles and gold decor, staircase to first floor.

There are two beautifully presented reception rooms. The principal reception room has a dual aspect and features walnut flooring and has double doors leading to the garden room.

The second reception room is another very comfortable and stunningly presented room with art deco style fireplace and also dual aspect.

The kitchen dining room is a lovely space with contemporary high quality cabinetry featuring tall units, integrated appliances and quartz work tops.

An open arch from here opens to the dining room with a small standalone stove and French doors open to the back garden and paved area.

Off the kitchen is a pantry, sizable utility room and wet room on the ground floor.

The staircase is carpeted and has brass stair rods leading to four spacious bedrooms each with individual style decor and the bathroom completes the accommodation.

Outside the property is a haven of peace and seclusion with beautiful lawns, generous paved area, spacious veranda also for al fresco dining and relaxing.

The garden room is another beautiful feature and would make an ideal artist’s studio or home office/library.

Located just a 15 to 18 minute drive from the vibrant town of Tullamore and there are many primary and secondary schools in the immediate vicinity.
