Roscommon, F45 A021 on c. 85.3 acres/ 34.5 Ha \n\nThis sale by private treaty represents a rare opportunity to acquire a country residence with significant historical interest. \n\nThe late Daniel O`Connell regularly stayed at Frenchlawn House, previously owned by his daughter Elizabeth (1810-1893) who married Nicholas Joseph Ffrench in 1831. \nThe political significance of this residence includes a previous owner, Mr. Terence Glancy, who was the First Secretary of Roscommon County Council in 1898. \nAnother notable former resident of Frenchlawn House is one Thomas Rogers, who emigrated to America in the pre-famine era. The City of Rogers in Minnesota is named after Thomas Rogers, a visionary who kindly donated one acre of agricultural land that developed into a city, which is a city of major importance today. \n\nThis residence has been in the ownership of the same family for over a century and, whilst in need of renovation, Frenchlawn House itself retains many original features and oozes potential, not to mention the beautiful cut stone outbuildings which could be restored and put to many different uses.
