SERIOUS horsey types or wealthy wanabee 'hobby farmers' looking for soil to toil to escape the stress of the city may take interest in Gleann Uisce Mor, Chapelhill, Thomastown in Co Kilkenny, a sizeable package of land, stables and big country home.
Standing on seven acres, Gleann Uisce Mor is a charming property set on an elevated site surrounded by spectacular views of Mount Brandon, Mount Leinster and The Blackstairs Mountains.
Inside accommodation comprises three double bedrooms (the main en-suite) with potential for three further bedrooms on the first floor. A large kitchen/dining room with a good mix of wall and undercounter units and a walk-in larder provides ample storage. Off it is a utility with more storage cupboards and guest WC. The sitting room is to the front of the house and makes the most of those stunning views.
Outside a timber decked veranda wraps around the exterior of the property and is perfect for dining al fresco in summer, while also acting as a weather barrier in winter.
The mature grounds are dotted with various specimens of trees including apple and plum trees and there is also a glasshouse for homegrown vegetables.
