Description
There is something magical about Caragh Lake and a home as mature and private as Caragh Lake House sitting on the edge of the lake is a rare sight in today's market. Entrance gates lead you through a driveway lined with mature woodland arriving at a large parking area where already the views of the lake are marvellous. This beautifully appointed home is perched on a mature south west facing site of about 1.33 acres with direct lake access and is ready to move in to. This property is special and is the perfect bolthole if you want to get away from it all. The area is tranquil, untouched by the modern world, where birdsong and the lapping of the lake are the most prevalent sounds to be heard.
Very spacious living accommodation and large picture windows with spectacular views are the main theme of this property. The oak floored entrance hallway, which continues throughout, opens through double doors to the living room of nearly 50 sq m with cast iron fireplace and open fire, being the centrepiece of this home. The dining room leads to the extensive kitchen while there is a second living/kitchen dining at the opposite end of the house. Bathrooms are beautifully tiled throughout.
Mature Scots pine and other mature trees line the driveway leading down to this magnificent home. Mature trees and shrubs define the waters edge while raised flower and shrub beds set the border of the paved terrace, which is full length of the house, all overlooking the lake. The sitting room, dining room and second kitchen/dining open on to this extensive terrace which is partially covered, perfect for protection from the Irish weather! Steps down lead to the large lawned area with some more Scots pine framing the wonderful views. Access to the lake is via a short path where you can take a dip or launch your dingy, kayak or canoe, or if you fancy doing a spot of lake fishing. Across the lake are the Magillycuddy Reeks with their ever changing seasonal colour forming the perfect backdrop to the view from this dream home.
The house itself is a solid stone built home, typical of the area, with a slate roof and large double glazed windows throughout. The area is renowned for its beauty and whether you chose to live here or use it as our getaway paradise, you are guaranteed a gorgeous home in a perfect tranquil location!
