Description

A Charming Period Residence on about 1 acre of mature and private gardens, in the centre of Wexford Town St. Mary’s offers wonderful potential – in need of upgrading, it has huge potential for a prestigious private house, exclusive residential development in the grounds, medical centre, nursing home, offices etc. etc. – all subject to the necessary planning consents. Located beside the Bishop’s Palace in Wexford Town, opposite St. Peter’s College, it is within easy walk of the Town Centre, Clonard Church, Wexford’s Main Industrial Estate, primary and secondary schools. Built in the late 18th Century, it was the original Bishops House in Wexford Town – it has a south facing aspect and a large bow to the east with wonderful internal proportions. Part of the accommodation has been converted to 2 self-contained apartments with independent access at the rear which would very easily be incorporated back into the main house. Exceptional grounds with mature rhododendrums, extensive lawns, numerous flowering shrubs and large trees. Zoned R2 – a residential zoning that permits 24 – 75 bed spaces per acre. The residence is a protected structure.
