Mark Nestor Property Services are delighted to welcome to the market this stunning four bed home with boarding kennels/cattery sitting on approximately nine acres of land.
The property is currently divided into the main residence and luxurious self-contained, one bed annex, although the layout carefully planned to ensure it would be very easy, with no structural work required, to revert to single usage.
This bespoke home, which is sat on approximately nine acres of land has been designed with the external spaces in mind, a winding lane leads up to the property and the whole estate is surrounded by woodland. This is an excellent opportunity to acquire this contemporary detached bungalow, complete with kennels and a cattery along with an external exercise area, nestled in a semi-rural setting near the beautiful village of Abbeyshrule which is known for its picturesque surroundings, including the River Inny which flows through the village.
The property boasts a four bedroom home, offering a self-contained one bedroom apartment connected to the bungalow which has been tastefully decorated throughout, offering a versatile space for extended family or those interested in generating income from short-term accommodations on platforms such as Airbnb.
Internally the main accommodation briefly comprises entrance hall, large dining kitchen, lounge featuring wood burning stove, together with three generous bedrooms, one with en-suite. The one-bedroom apartment is accessed through its spacious porch and hallway, leading to a utility area, toilet and cloakroom. The accommodation is completed by the open plan lounge and kitchen diner, complete with wood burning stove, and beautifully appointed bedroom and en-suite shower room. Access to the property is through a long driveway which extends to the rear elevation, providing ample off-road parking with a sheds to the rear of the premises. The property boasts expansive lawned gardens, a paved patio and BBQ area.
Adjacent to the property is the kennels/cattery and outhouses offering kennels and cat pens. First established around 25 years ago, the Dog and Bone is an attractive and successful boarding kennels business, having a healthy client base within the local communities, but with a reputation that also sees pet owners travelling from as far afield as Dublin.
The location, so close to Center Parcs, generates further income, income which will continue to grow with their major expansion planned for the coming months. Recent years have seen considerable investment put into both the house and kennels. The layout of the house has been totally reconfigured, with new kitchens and shower rooms installed, supported by new services.
Situated within the main kennel block are a total of 16 kennels and the Cattery. The Cattery was completely refurbished in 2023, to provide eight new custom built cat enclosures, designed to provide the most luxurious accommodation. All the kennels and cat pens have the capacity for multiple occupancy. There is a further block of four kennels used primarily for day boarding. Also situated in the main block, is the reception, and kitchen areas, complete with dishwasher, washing machine, and spin drier. The Barn and extensive outbuildings could easily be converted to provide additional facilities.
