Orchard House, Stradbally North, Clarinbridge, is a magnificent executive style detached residence of c2,800sq ft and standing on c0.5 acre of landscaped gardens.
The very attractive façade gives no hint of what lies behind its walls. Here is a home of distinction that nestles amid homes of similar standards. The marble winding staircase with its cast iron railings opens on to a gallery style landing with a large window to the front, allowing an abundance of natural light to flow into the surrounding areas. The living room is unique with its centrally located fireplace acting as a divide — however as the fireplace opens from both sides it also connects both sides of the room. The dining room, which opens into the kitchen, has a raised fireplace with a natural stone surrounding wall. The large recessed fire opening and grate is suitable for all types of fuel, however because of its size it is probably more suited to large logs which in turn give a wonderful feeling of warmth and atmosphere to the room. The kitchen/dining room extends the full width of the house to the rear and opens out into the superb garden that is adorned with mature trees, shrubs, and rolling lawns. A wonderful feature of this garden is the pond that is located close to the kitchen adjacent to the large patio areas.
All bedrooms are doubles with three en suite. The main bathroom is fitted with marble tiling and superior quality fixtures and fittings; a large Jacuzzi and double sized shower makes the bathroom one of the most luxurious rooms in the house.
