This elegant four-bedroom, two-bathroom, Victorian detached residence, formerly used as a doctor’s surgery, is on the outskirts of Kilmallock. Full of character, it boasts many original features including a tiled vestibule, timber sash windows, dual-aspect reception rooms, coving, architraves and four-panel doors. It extends to about 278sq m (3,000 sq ft) and is set on two acres of land. The interior of the Ber-exempt property needs modernisation. There are additional buildings in the courtyard that need to be remodelled and extend to about 185sq m (2,000sq ft).
