Ballycullen Lodge, a three-bedroom cottage-style home deep in the Wicklow countryside near Ashford, is for sale at over £385,000 through Hamilton Osborne King. The house stands on beautiful mature gardens in an area noted for its stunning views. The original house, over 100 years old, has been upgraded and extended to provide an extremely stylish and comfortable home. The high spec finish has been featured in the lifestyle section of a national magazine. One of the highlights is the kitchen/breakfastroom, a horseshoe shaped area with considerable charm. It has the original timber floor, exposed timber beams, elm wood wall and floor units incorporating a Belfast sink and integrated dishwasher and fridge-freezer. The livingroom has a lovely old wooden floor, a marble fireplace and a large window overlooking the gardens. The lounge is equally spacious and comfortable. There are three bedrooms including a master bedroom with en suite. The main bathroom has a jacuzzi and overhead a timber ceiling with spot lighting. The attic is currently used as an office but for families needing more space, there is planning permission for another bedroom with en suite at first floor level and a family room and conservatory downstairs. The one-acre grounds include a range of sheds with over 2,500 sq ft which could be upgraded.
