A truly charming country cottage nestled away in a cul de sac laneway with separate log cabin & a stone outbuilding situated in a peaceful rural location in the Knocknarea area with beautiful mountain views on a private mature site yet only 3km approx. from Sligo town. Rarely does such an impressive cottage come to the market in this area so close to Sligo with all the benefits of rural living yet only a stone's throw from the town. The well-appointed accommodation is presented and restored with love and care from its present owners & comprises a large kitchen / dining room with fitted kitchen units, cosy sitting room with solid fuel stove, two sizeable bedrooms, house bathroom, handy utility area & a loft / attic room with ladder access suitable for many uses. The cottage is deceptive to look at from the front as it's only when you go around to the rear the cleverly designed extension appears. It blends in very well to the original cottage enhancing the charm & character of the property. To one end of the cottage tucked away in the corner of the site is a handy old stone outbuilding / shed that could be reimagined as a home office, studio or workshop. At the other end of the site on an elevated perch is a fully serviced log cabin with kitchen, bathroom, bedroom & living area all in good condition and ready to be utilised. Located in a peaceful country laneway in the heart of an area of outstanding natural beauty with lovely mountain views in all directions yet only 5 minutes' drive to Sligo town. Enjoying open views of Knocknarea and Queen Maeve's cairn, Cairn View Cottage sits on the Coolera Peninsula in a quietly exceptional setting, equidistant between Sligo town and the coastal village of Strandhill. Across the surrounding fields lies Carrowmore, one of Europe's oldest megalithic cemeteries, creating a rare sense of connection to the ancient landscape for which County Sligo is renowned. The cottage sits in one of the most archaeologically significant corners of the country. Viewing is highly recommended to really appreciate how convenient the location is and the stunning mountain views and rural setting it has to offer.
