Originally built in 1863, the former Sisters of Mercy Convent in the heart of Templemore is an extensive structure containing some 13,500 sq.ft. over two floors and all situated on a generous c. 2.5 acre site on Church Avenue, a stunning tree-lined thoroughfare, running parallel to the main street of Templemore.
The building is in remarkably good condition, having been substantially refurbished at a large cost in 2008 / 2009.
Accommodation includes a number of large Reception Rooms, modern Kitchens, Hallways with original parquet flooring, a breathtaking Chapel with original stained glass windows, an elevator and no fewer than 14 bedrooms.
It is listed with an asking price of €1,450,000 on Daft.ie.
A public petition will be launched shortly to support recent attempts to secure the former Convent of Mercy building for the community.
Developments have continued apace in recent weeks with every avenue being explored in an attempt to retain this iconic building for community use.
