Set on the western shore of Lough Ree on the Roscommon side of Athlone, Barrymore is one of Athlone’s most sought-after and exclusive residential areas.
Located a few minutes walk from the Hodson Bay with its hotel and golf course, marina and walking trails, the surroundings are an idyllic rural haven and yet this area is less than a ten-minute drive away from the centre of Athlone Town (5km ) and M6 Dublin/Galway motorway access.
The area also benefits from having a GAA club (St Brigids ) at nearby Kiltoom, a primary school and church at nearby Ballybay and a convenience store for the Sunday papers lying close by.
Travelling up the long driveway with impressive terraced mature landscaped gardens either side, the long feature roof to ground windows to the front of the property immediately catches the eye on approach.
The spacious dimensions of the hallway and the highly polished tiles make a grand entrance space and it quickly becomes obvious that the interiors properly do the appealing facade justice. The property has a modern and fresh look with traditional elements which marries sophistication and laid-back schemes perfectly. There is a sense of flow into the kitchen where a muted palette and classic cabinetry has been kept minimal and handle-less to enhance the pared-back elegance.
There is a large feature island with open-plan dining area. The kitchen is complete with all Neff appliances, double ovens and five ring induction hob, warming drawer, dishwasher and Quooker instant hot water tap in kitchen with hot and cold taps also available. This layout results in a wonderfully convivial kitchen that flows into a dining space which in turn leads to a sitting area.
This open-plan layout is given a sense of continuity thanks to the engineered timber floor that flows throughout all the spaces. There is a cohesive feeling throughout the living space yet with each room having its own identity and nowhere more so than in the separate lounge with its high ceiling, grand proportion, wooden beams and solid fuel stove sitting against a background of exposed stone which creates a relaxed rustic look. In the master bedroom serenity is merged with sophistication through the use of a calming colour palette, mirrored wardrobes and a high quality en-suite bathroom. There is an external enclosed patio area perfect for summer dining and entertaining overlooking the rear gardens providing privacy to enjoy a glass of wine.
This is a property with personality and warmth which envelops you as soon as you step inside and viewings are highly recommended.
