Co Wexford: A picturesque artist's country cottage near Enniscorthy is asking in the region of €295,000 by private treaty sale through local agent Sherry FitzGerald O'Leary.

Coolgarrow is located just under four miles from Enniscorthy on the Oulart Road. At the end of a laneway and completely private, the two-bedroom cottage stands on six acres of garden and paddock.

Inside, everything has been restored with style by the owners, one of whom is a contemporary artist. An outhouse has been converted to a studio which could be used as a home office.

Inside, the cottage has been decorated with all the panache one would expect from a resident artist. There is a cosy sittingroom with an open fireplace and sash window looking out on the garden. Double windows make the quarry-tiled diningroom particularly bright and a cream Rayburn adds warmth.

Off this is the working kitchen and a pantry with a Belfast sink. Both bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and the bathroom includes an over-bath shower.

Outside, a number of outbuildings include the artist's studio, a garage, workshop, cow shed, greenhouse and a three-span haybarn which incorporates two stables.

The six acres are informally laid out, with sheltered seating areas, a large herb garden, flower borders and paddocks. The ruin of an old cottage remains and the views over open countryside to Oulart Hill are superb.
