ACCOMMODATION
Rathgar has a lovely feel and although it is now in need of modernisation and upgrades, it offers plenty of scope for a purchaser to make it their own. The property would be ideally suited to a developer, tradesman or those with previous experience in renovating older properties. With a cosy lounge to the front, this room enjoys excellent levels of natural light from the dual aspect windows commanding outlooks over the surrounding countryside to the front and over the private garden to the rear. A beautiful, traditional fireplace provides a focal point to the room. The kitchen is well proportioned, positioned to the front of the property with a large picture window and with plenty of potential to redesign the layout. Upstairs, two further double bedrooms are well proportioned, allowing plenty of space for freestanding furnishing, with the family bathroom centrally located.

EXTERNAL
An enclosed area of garden lies to the rear of the property which gives access to a former stone built bothy. The gardens are in need of landscaping but do provide a sunny and private area with the bothy building offering plenty of scope.
