Loughraney House, Clonmacken

Loughraney House is a detached two-storey red-brick home with an attached garage, a generous south-facing rear garden and a bright, open-plan kitchen, dining and family room. A wide gravel driveway, framed by low stone walls and mature planting, provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles. Loughraney House is truly exceptional in offering a totally private, rural setting just minutes from Limerick City Centre, and within walking distance of the unrivalled residential amenities of Limerick City North.

The extended living space is the heart of the house. The fitted kitchen features cream cabinetry, a tiled floor and a reconditioned electric Aga supplied by H & F of Clonmel in 2015. There is ample room for a large dining table, and the adjoining family area has wide-plank flooring and glazing on two sides that frames views of the garden. Glazed doors open directly onto the paved patio, making it easy to move between the kitchen, living area and garden when entertaining. A separate sitting room with an inset stove and stone surround offers a quieter space to unwind.

The first-floor accommodation includes an en-suite and a main bathroom with a bath, a separate walk-in shower and a heated towel rail. A staircase leads to the partially floored attic, which provides accessible storage. The attic provides superb versatility for storage, home-office use etc.

The rear garden is laid mainly to lawn, with mature trees and established planting along the edges. The south-facing patio, built in 2015–2016, sits just outside the family room and provides space for outdoor dining. The front of the house faces north, while the garage is on the east side.

In 2000, a rear extension of approximately 25 sq m was added. The front door was replaced, internal walls were removed and the main staircase was redone. The ensuite was altered, the first-floor bathroom was reduced in size and the hot press was modified. A staircase and basic flooring were also added to make the attic accessible for storage. In 2014–2015, the original extension was replaced and enlarged with the current L-shaped, single-storey rear extension.

• Oil-fired central heating with a Grant boiler installed in 2023.
• Mains water and an underground mains electricity supply.
• Registered septic tank.
• Fibre-optic cable runs to the house and enters in the dining area of the extension.
