It’s easy to see why Co Fermanagh is widely regarded as a haven for the outdoorsy type. With “water, water everywhere”, lush forests and several grand stately homes to potter around, here you can hike, run, cycle, fish, play golf and indeed, just relax, until your heart is content.
If you have been inspired to get back to nature at its very best then these properties at Water’s Edge might just be what you are looking for. Located on the northern shore of Lower Lough Erne and beside Castle Caldwell Forest, they enjoy a spectacular rural setting, unceasing views of the water and are the very epitome of modern elegance. And it’s easy too see why they have attracted interest from both local and international buyers.
The wider area is famed for its natural beauty however, do not let that distract you from these beautiful homes themselves. Water’s Edge is a collection of three bedroom designer led homes which are undeniably modern yet blend seamlessly with this famous landscape thanks to their wooden cladding, panoramic vista windows, stone elevations and lough-facing balconies. Inside is just as impressive with accommodation sprawled over three floors.
The main living quarters are on the ground floor and comprise an open plan kitchen/living room which leads out onto your continental style balcony, a generous shower room and the first bedroom which has ample space for two beds.
Upstairs the second bedroom has its own ensuite while the master is a truly fine affair with the best views of the water and an ensuite featuring a stand alone shower and a bath.
Downstairs is a large basement perfect for storing your wetsuits, bicycles and canoes - without dragging them into the main house - and a separate family/games room. Meanwhile for added convenience these properties are gas heated while the ground floor utilises space saving underground heating.
If running from your home, along the jetty and somersaulting into the water, just like they do in the spring break movies, doesn’t quite tickle your fancy you can always enjoy some leisurely exercise in the form of a walk along one of many private walkways. Enthusiastic runners can pop over to Castle Caldwell forest while anglers can dock their boat right outside or cast a line on the Garvary River.
And although you may feel a million miles from everywhere, you most certainly are not. The pretty town of Belleek is just a short drive away as are all the delights of Co Donegal with Ballyshannon and Bundoran the closest towns. The world renowned Marble Arch Caves, Castle Coole and Florence Court are also nearby.
Water’s Edge are predominately holiday homes but there is just one problem, you might never want to leave.
