An Exclusive New Residential Development of New 3 & 4 Bedroom Houses at Bonnettstown Road, Kilkenny.
Bishop’s Lough is within easy walking distance of Kilkenny City with numerous schools and amenities on your doorstep. Whether you love the city for its rich medieval heritage and cultural atmosphere or want to enjoy the outdoors along the eco-friendly loops, walkways and cycle paths this combination of rural and urban living provides the best of both.
Located on the Tullaroan/Bonnettstown Road in St Canice’s Parish, Bishop’s Lough offers both city living and a country lifestyle.
One of the only low-density (spacious living) projects in Kilkenny, the modern A2 BER-rated homes range from three and four-bed detached properties, three-bed semi-ds to three and two-bed mid/end terrace homes.
Residents can walk to the city centre in 10 minutes, yet enjoy the countryside at Bishop’s Lough with stunning scenery, walking and cycling tracks throughout the 10 acres of parkland and a special conservation area.
Located under a kilometre from Kilkenny’s High Street, on the Bonnettstown/Tullaroan Road, the low-density development is certainly aimed at families as it has a pedestrian-access walkway to the existing Loreto secondary school, and is located adjacent to the planned CBS school.
Four house types are currently available in the scheme, which has been a collaboration between local developer Matthew Wallace of Wallace Contracting and Wisteria Developments.
Besides their near-zero-energy ratings, the homes have generous ceiling heights, sleek, contemporary interiors and low-maintenance finishes, along with being wired for broadband.
A number of schools are in the locality, including boarding at Kilkenny College and Gaelscoil Osraí, which is now one of the largest gaelscoileanna in Ireland with more than 444 pupils.
Just beside Bishop’s Lough is the renowned Dicksboro GAA club, while there are eight all-weather courts at Kilkenny County and City Lawn Tennis Club, and for golfers the Irish Open course at Mount Juliet is nearby as is the championship-standard par 71 course on 120 acres at Kilkenny Golf Club.
In terms of connectivity, a seven-minute drive will have you in the train station, where you can connect to Dublin, Belfast and Limerick. For international travel, Cork, Dublin and Shannon airports are all accessible in under two hours by car.
