Description
Sherry FitzGerald O'Reilly are delighted to present Canal View, a charming 4 bedroomed family home offering an unbeatable setting in the heart of Sallins village, nestled directly along the scenic banks of the Grand Canal. Originally built around 1850, as a detached, three-bay, two-storey residence, its classic architecture adds character to the village streetscape, standing alongside this historical canal which opened in 1779. Beyond the charming exterior of Canal View lies a generously proportioned home. It has been updated and extended over its many years, and it now blends period style with modern practicality. It boasts spacious reception rooms, four double bedrooms and a very private garden.Sallins retains a genuine village feel, where everyday amenities are within walking distance and a strong community spirit thrives. At the forefront of the village is the canal, which once bustled with passenger boats and barges transporting goods, but now has now been transformed into a modern Blueway. Its scenic towpaths are used for walking, fishing and cycling, while its waterways offer kayaking and barge trips. The village is packed with amenities, and all are close to this home- cosy bars, excellent restaurants, shops, crèches, primary school, Scout den, soccer club, playground, and GAA club.
