Tinnacouse House is a contemporary property in Skeaghvasteen and is close to the idyllic villages of Graignamanagh and Borris. Located in a private rural setting, this residence extends generously over 400sqm and has been finished to a high standard. Comprising four exceptionally spacious bedrooms and five bathrooms, this home is ideal for family living. 

Upon entering through the light-filled hallway, the open plan kitchen/dining area is located to the left. It is fitted with custom built units along with an island unit. The dining table overlooks the well-maintained gardens and opens directly onto a patio area ideal for entertaining. The garden is also welcomed into the room through double glass French doors. 

This space flows seamlessly into the family room. Fitted with parquet flooring, this light filled room is again connected to the patio area through double glass French doors. The room is completed with a solid fuel burning stove, set in a marble surround. To the right of the entrance hall lies a further hallway where the utility room, playroom, storeroom and bathroom are located. The playroom and utility both have double glass French doors that lead out to the garden. At the end of this hallway lies a bedroom overlooking the front of the Tinnacouse property. 

A hardwood staircase rises to a bright and airy landing that leads to three generously sized bedrooms, two of which are ensuite. The master ensuite is generously proportioned and accompanied by a double aspect view across the rolling countryside. A family bathroom is situated just off the landing. This bathroom is fitted with a bathtub and walk-in shower. Located at the end of the hallway, the second spacious ensuite bedroom enjoys a walk-in wardrobe. A further large bedroom is located to the front of the house and given its size, could easily be split to accommodate a fifth bedroom as required.
