Hilgrove Terrace

An utterly charming period property forming the end of a terrace in the heart of Gorey Village. Meticulously maintained and presented in absolute walk in condition.

The owners have strived to retain the period ambiance of the house with beautiful fireplaces, wood floors and plaster ceiling roses and cornices. The stained glass above the front door and the window over the staircase and surrounds has all been kept as it should be, and provides a warm welcome on arrival.

A modern kitchen has been installed at the rear with centre island, range cooker and American fridge freezer. This has been extended to create a fabulous breakfast room that then has access to the rear patio garden. An old outhouse has been restored to provide an excellent outside laundry room. It also houses the upgraded boiler and pressurised cylinder so is perfect not only for washing, but also drying clothes.

A gravelled parking area is right outside the back door, as are 2 separate patio garden areas and, unusually, there is also a block built potting shed/workshop at the end of an adjoining path. Adjacent to the gable end of the house is an on-street parking space that has always been used by the owners of the property.

Also, a feature of the house is an old petrol pump on the side patio which was restored before being reinstated to its current location. It was present at the roadside of the property for 50+ years and was used post war by the previous owner of the property to fill his own vehicles.
