Bluebell Lodge, Old Dublin Road

Bluebell Lodge, Old Dublin Road, Carlow, R93 RR83
A Characterful Four-Bedroom Period Home with Separate Three-Bedroom Cottage

REA Sothern are delighted to bring Bluebell Lodge to the market, a distinctive period residence with mature gardens and a separate three-bedroom cottage on the Old Dublin Road, Carlow.

With its decorative gables, climbing foliage and welcoming entrance, Bluebell Lodge is a home with an unmistakable sense of character. Inside, tall windows, elegant ceiling details and characterful fireplaces complement rooms that offer space for both everyday family life and entertaining.

The Bluebell name has an intriguing place in local history. A 1956 account in Carloviana records a Bluebell Inn on Dublin Road, demolished to make way for the railway and succeeded by a house named Bluebell, built a short distance nearer the town. While the precise connection to the present property remains to be confirmed, the account offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of the name and its setting.

The main house includes a welcoming entrance hall, a comfortable sitting room and a separate dining room, ideal for family celebrations or having friends over. The kitchen provides space for everyday dining, while the conservatory enjoys views of the garden and offers a lovely place to sit throughout the changing seasons. Four bedrooms upstairs complete the main house’s sleeping accommodation.

The Separate Cottage

The three-bedroom cottage is a particularly appealing addition, offering flexibility that is rarely found with a town property.

For families considering multi-generational living, it provides the opportunity to live close to one another while retaining separate space and independence. It could equally suit those seeking a dedicated home office, creative studio or accommodation for visiting family, subject to any necessary consents.

Outside

Lawned gardens, established trees and mature planting provide an attractive backdrop to the house. The gravelled approach offers parking, while the gardens have space for outdoor dining, family time and those who enjoy gardening.

Bluebell Lodge offers the individuality of a period home with the practical benefit of additional accommodation. For buyers seeking character, room for an extended family or greater flexibility in how they live and work, this is a property well worth viewing.

Viewing is by appointment through REA Sothern.
