Dating from circa 1870 and originally forming part of the historic Killua Estate, this substantial and distinctive village property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home of genuine heritage, charm and versatility. Rich in local history, the property has served a variety of purposes over the generations, including operating as a sweet shop from the 1930s through to the 1950s. Remaining in the same family ownership since 1952, it was thoughtfully extended during the late 1970's, creating the spacious and adaptable accommodation seen today.

Occupying a prominent position within the heart of Clonmellon, the property combines residential accommodation with valuable mixed-use potential. Two generous front rooms, each with independent street access and their own front door, were formerly used as retail premises and offer a range of possibilities for home business, office, consulting rooms, studio space or continued commercial use, subject to any necessary consents.

To the rear lies one of the property's most fascinating features – the original cut-stone dwelling, believed to date from the late 18th century, when the main street of the village ran behind the houses on the current main street. The initial village was established and initiated by Sir Benjamin Chapman, the 1st Baronet of Killua Castle to serve as a market town, bordering his Estate. This historic structure stands as a tangible reminder of the property's long and interesting past and offers further potential for restoration or alternative use.
The accommodation extends to an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, utility room, shower room and the two former shop units at ground floor level. Upstairs, the property provides four bedrooms, an office, family bathroom and separate shower room, making it ideally suited to growing families or those seeking flexible living and working arrangements.

Externally, the property enjoys excellent rear access via a tarmac yard leading directly to the original field gate. Beyond lies a substantial rear garden and paddock, bordered by mature hedgerows and featuring a magnificent mature beech tree which provides both privacy and a striking focal point. Extending to approximately 0.25 hectares (0.62 acres), the grounds offer ample space for gardening, recreation, small-scale hobby farming or future development potential, subject to planning permission.

Clonmellon is a vibrant and well-serviced village situated on the N52 between Kells and Mullingar. The village benefits from convenience stores, a national school, playschools, GAA facilities, community clubs and amenities, together with its renowned monthly Farmers' Market. Excellent connectivity is provided by a daily bus service linking Kells, Dundalk and Mullingar, while the M3 motorway at Kells is less than ten minutes away, making Dublin and the wider region easily accessible.

Combining historical significance, mixed-use flexibility, extensive rear grounds and a central village location, this is a truly unique property offering immense scope for restoration, modernisation and future enhancement.
