About this property

  • 2 Hailes Avenue is a charming stone built property, formerly the stables to Hailes House located close by. The house sits within an established and exceptionally colourful walled garden. Now requiring complete modernisation, this represents an excellent opportunity to create a wonderful home with three bedrooms, sitting room, dining room, study and two bathroom. Subject to the necessary consents, there is great potential to further extend the property to incorporate the garages at either end of the house in order to create a wonderful open plan dining kitchen and living space with delightful views over the garden grounds.

    The property is accessed through grand stone gate piers opening to the wonderfully private and mature garden with a wide variety of plants, shrubs and trees providing colour for much of the year. The parking and driveway currently circles the central lawn, but could be reconfigured to increase the lawn if required.
