The Old Parochial House, Speenogue, Burt, F93Kc52

Superb 8 bedroom (6 ensuite) house with 500mb broadband, gym, library and
enchanting views over Burt, Inch Island and Lough Swilly. Prestige, privacy,
peacefulness and style are all in abundance in this house with the added
benefit of coexisting rural and city lives (Derry City – 5 miles, City of Derry
Airport – 11 miles). It sits on around 1.1 acres of beautiful landscaped
gardens and uniquely bordered on one side by Burt Ancient Woodland.

The Old Parochial House was originally built around 1853 with stone walls,
it was refurbished and extended on either wing in 2007 including wiring,
roofing, plumbing and efficiency upgrades. The current design offers great
character whilst retaining an original feeling throughout. Measuring 359.6 sq m
(3871 sq ft) the stand out B3 BER rating is testament to the modernisation
works.

Burt as a locality is a townland in the Inishowen Peninsula in beautiful Co
Donegal (labelled ‘coolest place on the planet’ National Geographic) on the
Derry-Donegal border. Donegal is home to some of Irelands and Europe’s finest
beaches and scenery and Burt is within short driving distance from these
amenities.  Derry City is a university city with a vibrant social and
cultural scene (former UK city of culture). Both areas are steeped in sport,
music, art and education, at all levels. Burt is known as an upmarket area and
is home to many prestigious residents who work in Donegal, Derry or from home.

The property is easily accessible and sits in an elevated position just off
the main Derry – Letterkenny Road. It has a gated entrance up a gently sloping
gravel driveway with green grass gardens on either side. One side has a patio
for evening bbq’s and seasonal relaxing, with the other having planting patches
for growing. Parking is at the side with further gated access to the back and
land sloping upwards with the potential for future uses.

Inside takes great advantage of natural light with the south east facing
front. The entrance porch leads to a ground floor which makes excellent use of
space. The accommodation includes a formal dining room, library, gym and
bedroom (with ensuite) on one side and an elegant open plan kitchen and family
room on the other side. The downstairs accommodation is completed by a play
room/office, considerable utility room and shower room with WC.

Upstairs has dual landings with the main having access to the balcony and
views over Lough Swilly. It has 5 ensuite bedrooms with the 7th & 8th
bedrooms having a shared 6th bathroom.  The many additional features are
best appreciated when viewing.
