Lickaun Lodge, Lickaun, Kilnamona, County Clare , V95 RVK7

Description
Lickaun Lodge is a luxurious tranquil property set on an elevated site which commands panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Built in 2003 by skilled / artistic tradesmen using high end natural materials. A variety of wood, cedar, elm, ash and larch were carefully selected, dried and carved beams, decorative fascia and furniture. The main residence commands an approximate gross internal floor area of 130 sq. mts. adjoining stable block (ground and first floor accommodation) of 120 sq mts.


The detail and finish of the main residence were individually selected or made from natural material and integrated with the theme of individual rooms and house as a whole. Front window sills and surround are finished with hand cut limestone. The entrance porch with its outer natural stone feature and tiled floor sets the theme. The elegant cosy sitting room’s main feature is the large limestone grey stone fireplace with its large wood burning stove. The Victorian style furniture and pitch pine hand carved staircase and matching floor boards; antique style light shades and switches compliment the room and provide a soft and relaxing environment. The kitchen area is finished with hand cut larch beams and timber ceiling. Kitchen units are solid timber units with a large Belfast sink. The gas/electric cooker sits in the heart of the kitchen with a beautiful marble background inscribed with ‘Failte’. The welcoming porch as its known is adjacent to the kitchen and provides additional storage space for everyday use. The handmade presses and decorative centre piece add a touch of warmth. The Sun Room with its Gothic themed high ceiling, larch beams and wrought iron finials provide a relaxing and spacious room with panoramic views of the front gardens and surrounding countryside.
