Woodvale Lodge, Rathneeny West, Laghey, F94X5N8

Woodvale Lodge presents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented four-bedroom detached country-style residence, superbly maintained and offering spacious, high-quality accommodation in an idyllic, secluded setting on the edge of Laghey Village. Originally constructed in 1972, this distinguished home was thoughtfully designed by its previous owner to evoke the elegance of a Victorian-era Manse, without the demands of constant upkeep and preservation. The result is a harmonious blend of classic architectural charm and modern comfort, providing a refined sanctuary amid mature, landscaped grounds.

Nestled on exquisitely landscaped, level grounds extending to approximately 0.8 acres and boasting direct river frontage, this exceptional property ensures a remarkable degree of privacy seldom available in today’s market. Every aspect of the site has been thoughtfully designed to create an exclusive and tranquil retreat, perfectly complementing the distinguished character of the residence itself. The grounds present a valuable opportunity for future dependants to construct an additional dwelling without compromising the existing residence.
