Description

‘Carpenham’. A charming Elizabethan Cottage style residence dating back to 1826 and occupying a secluded mature wooded setting on the Northern edge of Rostrevor Village, with grounds extending to approximately 5 acres.

Whilst the setting enjoys complete privacy, the property is only a 5 minute walk from the charming County Down village of Rostrevor, set on the shores of Carlingford Lough.

Rostrevor and the nearby town of Warrenpoint, offer an excellent array of local shopping facilities, restaurants, coffee shops and bistros.

Carpenham is also well located, less than an hour from Belfast, 10 minutes from Newry, and 1.5 hours from Dublin.

The property is a Grade B listed property and is of a particularly attractive architectural style and features in the book ‘Buildings of South County Down’ by Philip Smith. Extract Below:

The various iterations of the Picturesque style came into fashion during the same period as Rostrevor, its hinterland around Carlingford Lough experienced a boom in the building of residences for the gentry and small shoreline villas, and the
‘old English’ Tudoresque version of the genre in particular came to be favoured for a number of properties in the area. Arguably the finest amongst these is Carpenham, a low but extensive one-and-a-half to two-storey ‘Elizabethan Cottage’ of c 1826 by William Vitruvius Morrison, set within now much contracted, but still delightful, wooded grounds on the northern edge of the village.

The house displays all the attributes one might hope for. It has, an asymmetric but sophisticated planform, an overhanging steeply-pitched roof, and lively undulating elevations with multiple gabled and square bays, half-dormers, decorative barge-boards, mullioned and transomed multi-paned windows, tall (originally taller) star-profile chimney-stacks, all coated in roughcast with a coved eaves, some drip mouldings and faux half-timbering. The cast-facing front commences in a sophisticated, marginally more baronial scale to the south where the largest bay sits next to the slightly lower entrance projection, the latter having a Tudor-arched doorway under a jettied upper storey with corbels in the form of horned leopards, or some other variety of big cat.

The property offers deceptively spacious accommodation extending to c.8,000sq ft comprising of an attractive reception hall, cloakroom/WC, 4 reception rooms, kitchen, bathroom/WC. In addition, on the ground floor, there is a leisure wing with swimming pool, fitness area, shower room and sauna.

On the first floor, there are 7 bedrooms (3 with private ensuite facilities) and main bathroom.

The adjacent Coach House to Carpenham has been recently converted into two excellent self contained apartments (one with 2 bedrooms and one with 3 bedrooms).

All in all, the sale of Carpenham represents a unique opportunity to acquire a period residence set in private mature gardens within walking distance of the picturesque Rostrevor Village.

Viewing is by private appointment and is highly recommended.
