DESCRIPTION
A Magnificent Modern Country Residence with Yard on c. 47 Acres

Crandoon Farm is a superb country property of over 5,705 sq.ft (excluding basement), on 47 acres of prime agricultural land. The house occupies an elevated, private setting with picturesque views. It is approached by a traditional recessed stone entrance and winding avenue with post and rail fencing. Built in the mid 2000’s it offers exceptional standards of design and construction arranged over three floors and a basement. The sky light fills the hall with an abundance of natural light which sets the tone for the rest of the home. The generously sized reception rooms on the ground floor are ideal for family living or entertaining. The impressive entrance hall and central staircase on the ground floor lead to 6 ensuite bedrooms on the first floor finished to an excellent specification. The brehon slab floor across the ground and first floor levels significantly reduces noise around the property and adds an element of luxury, with both levels enjoying underfloor heating throughout. The second floor, a galleried landing with solid oak floors, provides ample storage space and a range of options for the purchaser. Access to the flat roof terrace is also located on this floor. The basement with its large workshop and garage space for two cars and rolling shutter door to the basement ramp was designed with practicality in mind. The base for a lift shaft is located here and a new owner may decide to add this feature to the house. The self-contained apartment adjoining the basement is ideal for those who have a requirement for a separate living space to accommodate family, an au pair or even for a guest area. This can be accessed via house or external lightwell entrance and granite patio.
