Description
Moovingo are delighted to present ‘Ar d’Teach’, a charming detached cottage set on c. 1.5 acres along with a separate detached annex building, an open barn and polytunnel. Celebrating its centenary the property was built c 1918, and has been beautifully maintained and cared for over the years retaining its early period and architectural form.
The current owners have lovingly updated the property most notably by fitting the kitchen / living area with old style terracotta handmade tiles, the installation of an induction Rangemaster hob and oven and a state of the art multifuel stove which also acts as the central heating and hot water system.
Fitted cabinet units from Christy Bird Antiques finish off the kitchen beautifully. A new hot water cylinder was recently fitted to take solar panels or can easily be reverted to oil if preferred.
The main building briefly comprises a large porch, hallway, guest bathroom, bedroom with fireplace and kitchen / living area. The master bedroom has the preferred south west aspect and includes an open fireplace. The annex building extends to 39 sq. m. (430 sq. ft.) and comprises a hallway, kitchenette, bathroom with bath and electric shower and two large rooms. The annex is connected to the main heating system which feeds from the cottage.
There lies an opportunity to join the two buildings (S.P.P) or as current owners have done, keep separate and utilise the second annex building to generate an extra income by hosting workshops or short term rentals.
A BIOcell SBR wastewater treatment system and pumped percolation area was installed in 2012 and has been regularly maintained since. This system exceeds the required EPA standards and can cater for 4-12 people.
The property also includes a newly built 41 sq. m. (440 sq. ft.) open barn with a 5000 litre potable rainwater harvesting tank, a large polytunnel, raised bed vegetable garden, 20 tonnes of ash firewood (5 year heating supply) and a separate hen and duck house. There are currently four chickens and two ducks which come with the property, or not if preferred. The property is secured by fencing on both sides and a stream runs along the rear boundary, adding to its tranquility.
Offering a country living lifestyle, Ar d’Teach is the perfect property for anyone looking to get away from the bustle of the city and still enjoy an easy commute in and out of Dublin city.
