This waterfront building has been everything from a military depot to a cafe - and now it has been converted into a massive dream home.

Old Pier House, on Hobbs Point, was built in the 1830s and was initially a hub for the Irish mail service, and by the 1860s was a military stores depot for royal engineers.

Later on, the building was used as a waterside cafe, and has now been transformed into an impressive home retaining plenty of period features along with new elements.

On the ground floor, the entrance leads into the central living room, featuring a custom-made cast iron staircase.

Going further into the property through a hallway paved with old copper coins, the bespoke kitchen has a full wall of glass with doors leading out onto the waterside patio garden. The kitchen also features a pantry and a utility room, and leads to a large games room.

Also on the ground floor is a dining area and an additional lounge, with both rooms offering original stonework in the rear wall.

Up on the first floor are four bedrooms and a family bathroom, with three of the bedrooms benefitting from views out over the water. There is also an office area, and the master bedroom contains an en-suite shower room and a walk-in closet.

The patio area includes a section of astro-turf, with a hot tub area and a storage shed.

Old Pier House is being marketed by Country Living Group for a guide price of £1,000,000.

James Skudder of Country Living Group commented: “’I am absolutely lost for words with Old Pier House.

“The level of fit and finish that has gone into this incredible transformation is staggering.

“If you are looking for a breathtaking home with water views to match, look no further!”
