***Limited Number of Homes Now on Sale***
Millers Hill is an exceptional development of semi-detached and detached family homes in the village of Killenard.
Situated in an elevated position overlooking the pastoral lands of County Laois, the village of Killenard is a special kind of place. You may recognise it as the home of the exclusive Heritage Golf and Spa Resort, which is located in the very heart of the village. However, it is also a vibrant and thriving community ready to welcome you and your family.
Due to the market in late 2024, a selection of 3, 4 & 5 bedroom homes will be available in Millers Hill. Options include two detached 3-bedroom bungalows each 112 sq.m and 3-bedroom semi-detached homes from 121sq.m. The 4-bedroom choices include, semi-detached, 3 storey semi-detached and detached + study, ranging in size from 141 sq.m – 194 sq.m. The spacious 5-bedroom detached homes are 208 sq.m.
Killenard village has a strong community spirit, united around the staples of rural life – a national school, local sports clubs and churches (RC and C of I). What is slightly unusual about Killenard is that a luxurious hotel and golf resort, the 4-star Heritage, is literally at the centre of village life. Local members make the most of the Seve Ballesteros-designed 18-hole golf course and the resort’s facilities, including the gym, swimming pool, ESPA spa, bar and restaurants. Many locals also enjoy access to an excellent 5km walking track around the golf course.
Locally, the Thatch pub serves food seven nights a week with music on Fridays to Sundays. Or why not catch a bite to eat and cocktail at Seve’s Bar overlooking the Heritage Golf Course? Close by is the Killenard Community Centre with squash, tennis, dancing and after school activities.
A bit further down the road you’ll find a number of sporting clubs including O’Dempsey’s GAA, The Portarlington Rugby Club (4km), Arlington AFC, Portarlington GAA and the Portarlington Sports Complex and swimming pool.
