HIDDEN AWAY ON the Waterford-Cork border, Glistinane House certainly has a dramatic location.
It overlooks the Blackwater River as well as Youghal Harbour, with tranquil country views as far as the eye can see. This home’s price is on application only, but judging by those views and the high-spec finish, it won’t come cheap.
The six-bedroom home was built in 2004, and spans 427 sq m/4,600 sq ft.
It’s also been skillfully and thoroughly upgraded in recent years – according to The Irish Examiner, the current owners made extensive changes that included adding digital heat controls, CCTV intercoms for the gates, and LED lighting inside and out.
The kitchen is a seriously impressive, well-lit room, with granite countertops, high-tech appliances and a kitchen island that houses a wine cooler. It opens into a breakfast/dining area that’s flooded with light and provides access to the gardens.
There are three reception rooms on the ground floor, so there’s plenty of space for entertaining.
The current owners revamped these areas, too, and the rooms feel incredibly luxurious thanks to touches like chandeliers and coloured LED lighting.
The bedrooms upstairs are all huge, but the master bedroom is by far the most impressive, boasting walk-in wardrobes, a large bathroom suite with LED-lit Jacuzzi bath and not one, but two viewing platforms on large balconies.
The rural delights of Glistinane House don’t leave it totally isolated, though: it’s a 20-minute drive to Dungarvan, and you can be in Cork city in less than an hour. Youghal is just over the river, too, about a 15-minute drive away.
Glistinane House, Glistinane, Kinsalebeg, Co. Waterford is on sale from Brian Gleeson Property Ltd., via Daft.ie. Price is available upon application.
