Caplahard, Glasson, Athlone, Ballykeeran, Co. Westmeath

Approached through a sweeping tarmacked driveway and surrounded by mature shrubbery and trees, this exceptional five-bedroom detached residence offers the perfect balance of modern luxury, generous living space, and peaceful countryside tranquillity in the highly sought-after area of Caplahard, Glasson.
Finished to an impeccable standard throughout, this beautifully presented turnkey home has been extensively upgraded and improved over the years, resulting in a residence that combines style, comfort, and energy efficiency with ease. Designed with modern family living in mind, the property also benefits from a dedicated home office, ideal for remote working.

From the moment you step inside, the sense of quality and warmth is immediately evident. A large feature window beside the front door, together with a skylight over the landing, floods the entrance hall with natural light, while the carpeted staircase and dark timber flooring enhance the homes luxurious feel.

At the heart of the property lies the impressive open-plan kitchen and living area. The contemporary kitchen, beautifully refitted in 2016, features high-quality cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a warm welcoming atmosphere perfect for both everyday family life and entertaining guests. The spacious living area is centred around a Kingstar Elm wood-burning stove, while a Grant Vortex boiler, installed in 2017, further enhances the homes efficiency and comfort. Remote-controlled electric blinds add a touch of modern convenience. Natural light pours into this space from every angle, with a large bay window framing the dining area, additional windows to the front and side, and sliding doors opening onto a stunning patio area the perfect setting for alfresco dining and entertaining. A further rear-facing kitchen window ensures the entire space remains bright and airy throughout the day.

Complementing the kitchen is a fully fitted utility room with additional cabinetry and convenient rear access, further enhancing the practicality of the home.

The ground floor accommodation is both versatile and spacious, currently comprising two generously sized ensuite bedrooms, one of which benefits from a walk-in wardrobe. There is also a dedicated home office and a playroom, which has been updated with built-in storage and could easily serve as an additional bedroom depending on a purchasers needs.

Upstairs, a bright and airy landing leads to the magnificent master suite. This spacious room is filled with natural light from a skylight and features a luxurious ensuite along with an impressive six metres of built-in wardrobe space. A further large double bedroom is located on the opposite side of the landing, offering excellent accommodation for family or guests.

Externally, the property continues to impress with a substantial detached garage built to the same high standard as the house itself. Featuring one-and-a-half-height ceilings, a mezzanine area, and extensive built-in storage, this exceptional space offers enormous potential for a workshop, hobby area, or additional storage.

Set within beautifully maintained surroundings, this outstanding home offers privacy, elegance, and exceptional comfort in a peaceful countryside setting, while still being conveniently located close to Glasson village and all local amenities. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly special family home finished to the highest of standards.

The property has undergone extensive upgrades in recent years, with a strong focus on comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term ease of maintenance. In 2020, the downstairs bedrooms and ensuites were fully renovated, while the septic tank and percolation area were comprehensively refurbished. The septic system has been regularly maintained, with the tank most recently emptied and inspected in April 2026.
Further enhancements followed in 2021 with the installation of a tarmac driveway and paved parking areas, adding both practicality and kerb appeal. In 2022, the fuel store was re-roofed, and significant insulation improvements were carried out throughout the home. These included breathable open-cell insulation at the apex of the roof, Earthwool insulation in the crawlspaces, bonded bead insulation pumped into the exterior walls, and jacketed poly tanks all contributing to substantially improved energy efficiency and year-round comfort.
The property also benefits from all new Senator triple-glazed windows and doors, complemented by an impressive seven-metre double-glazed sliding door that opens seamlessly onto the patio area, maximising natural light and indoor-outdoor living. Externally, all fascia, soffits, and gutters have been replaced with low-maintenance PVC for added durability and ease of upkeep.
Modern practicalities have been equally well considered. A Zappi EV charger was installed in 2026, while the home is serviced by mains water and also benefits from a private well supply. For additional peace of mind, an external generator hookup and dedicated switch at the fuse board allow for a seamless backup power supply during outages.
