The Old Forge, Ballyduff

• Large private site
• Attractive garden areas
• Cosy and spacious accommodation

Charming 19th Century residence on a large c. 0.6 acre private site.

Dating from the mid to late 1800s, ‘The Old Forge’ is a captivating and highly individual residence set amidst the peaceful countryside of Ballyduff. Believed to have originated as a traditional blacksmith’s forge, this remarkable home presents a rare opportunity to acquire an authentic piece of Irish rural heritage in an idyllic rural setting.

This olde worlde cottage oozes charm throughout. Exposed stonework, warm timber finishes, vintage styling and inviting spaces combine to create a home of extraordinary atmosphere and originality. The accommodation is extremely cosy and deceptively spacious, stretching to a comfortable 115m², with each room boasting its own unique character.

Outside, the property is framed by mature greenery and enjoys a wonderfully secluded setting, with attractive garden areas. Sheltered on all sides by a tree-lined boundary, the sense of privacy and tranquillity is exceptional, making The Old Forge a perfect escape from the pace of modern life.

Nestled in the southern foothills of Sliabh Bhui close to Camolin Park, it is close to a range of wood and hillside walks. Yet, it is only about 5kms from Camolin and less than 10mins drive from the M11.

‘The Old Forge’ is a rare gem providing a window to our past and needs to be seen to be appreciated. For those looking to get a break from the hustle and bustle of modern living it offers a unique opportunity to return to nature and our heritage with this wonderful countryside retreat.
