Kerry in the South-West of Ireland, a crow's croak from the famous Ballyheigue, Banna Strand and Ballybunnion beaches. The farmhouse was built by Lindsay Talbot Crosbie, of Norman origin, who held influence and power over the area until the early 20thC. and whose family seat was the nearby Ballyheigue Castle. The Williams and later Collins families farmed the land, providing employment for local people for generations, while its fertile fields once hosted the National Ploughing Championships. The land having been sold in the 1980s the present owners bought the neglected old farmhouse in 1997 and set about a lengthy refurbishment. The Old Tom Collins Farmhouse has now been stylishly restored and converted into a comfortable family home (see photos). The property boasts 4 bedrooms, a large modern family bathroom with hot tank/airing cupboard, and separate WC and shower rooms on the upper floor. Downstairs is a large lounge with open fireplace for burning the aromatic local peat, a large dining room with wood-burning stove, a spacious kitchen with all modern conveniences, includingan indoor BBQ, a downstairs cloakroom, utility/laundry room, a large front garden with mature shrubs and trees, a rear off-kitchen patio garden with herbbeds, a large hard-standing parking area for several cars, a fuel shed,workshop/garage and boiler/store-room.
