Nestled in the picturesque village of Kilumney, Ovens, stands a remarkable piece of history – Apsley House, an enchanting 19th-century period house. This three-bay, two-storey dwelling boasts an awe-inspiring six-bay elevation on its east side, exuding timeless elegance and character. Situated adjacent, are the ruins of the Bride Flour mill which was owned by the Morton Family. In 1848 the Morton’s moved into Apsley house. Milling continued until the end of the 19 th century, further deepening its historical significance.
Apsley House has been lovingly restored and meticulously renovated by its current owner, making it a harmonious blend of classic charm and modern comfort. Notable upgrades include comprehensive replumbing and rewiring, underfloor heating, a new slate roof, replacement of all windows where possible and otherwise renovated and the shutters retained, modern bathrooms, a state-of-the-art kitchen designed and installed by Linehan's Design Ltd, and a redecoration throughout the interior and exterior.
As you step inside, you are greeted by a grand living room adorned with high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows that provide a splendid view of the entrance. The beautiful kitchen overlooks a south-facing terrace. Additionally, on the ground floor, you'll find a cozy bedroom with an ensuite, complemented by an adjoining office or living area – ideal for accommodating an au pair or providing a private retreat.
Venturing to the first floor, you'll discover three spacious bedrooms, including two elegantly appointed rooms and a large family room with floor-to-ceiling windows that offer captivating views of the entrance.
Set upon approximately one acre of meticulously landscaped gardens and grounds, Apsley House provides a tranquil oasis within a bustling world. A sweeping driveway leads to a gravel parking area in front of the house, providing ample space for guests. The gardens themselves are a testament to nature's beauty, featuring a variety of mature trees, shrubs, and flowering plants that lend colour and charm throughout the year. To the rear of the property are the old stables which are currently used as out houses but could easily be converted into an office space or gym.
Aspley house is situated j ust a 20 minute drive from the City, 10 minutes from Ballincollig, 3 Mins to Ovens where there are shops, a school and a church. It has excellent links to the south ring road network and is a short stroll to Kilumney Village which has two shops, a garage and the very popular Kilumney Inn.
Apsley House is not merely a home; it's a living testament to the past, meticulously preserved and thoughtfully updated to offer modern comfort. It stands as a testament to the enduring allure of period homes, a place where history and contemporary living coexist in perfect harmony.
