Description

Ballygriggan House on approximately 140 Acres (Available for sale in lots if required). Ballygriggan House is an imposing country house which has been improved and extended over the years. Set in an idyllic rural setting in the rolling farmland of north Cork, the property commands delightful aspects with far reaching views of the surrounding countryside. Approached by a tree lined drive, the house occupies an elevated yet secluded and private position, with a bright sunny aspect. The two storey house has a six bay front with offset entrance porch and a six-bay side elevation with recessed centre. The impressive accommodation has a practical layout extending to some 770 sq. m. (8,200 sq. ft) of manageable floor area. The house has undergone a comprehensive programme of upgrading and extension over the years to double the existing floor area together with new heating and hot water systems and a double garage. The accommodation is all of generous proportions and includes reception hall, four reception rooms, seven bedrooms and six ensuite and family bathroom. The property is bounded to the entire eastern and northern perimeter by the River Awbeg. The house is well placed to the centre of its lands, which extend to some 56.76 hectares (approx. 140 acres).Ballygriggan House is located in a scenic rural area some 5km from the charming village of Castletownroche, well served with churches, school, shops, butcher, pharmacy, garages and pubs.

The house is well served for access to Cork city, Cork and Shannon International Airports and to the M8 Cork /Dublin motorway. The area is renowned for its natural beauty and undulating farmland and wooded river valleys located between the Ballyhoura and Nagle Mountains. The River Awbeg, a tributary of Ireland's premier salmon river - The River Blackwater- forms much of the boundary to the property. There are many leisure and sporting amenities nearby. The area provides some of the finest fishing in the River Blackwater, Awbeg and Funcheon with golf well catered for locally at Mallow, Charleville, Mitchelstown and Fermoy. Hunting is with the Duhallow with racing at Mallow (Cork Race Course) and Killarney. There is an active point-to-point calendar over the winter months.

The house is surrounded on three sides by gardens. The front, lawns with trees provide seclusion whilst to the southern aspect a walled garden with sandstone flagged sun terrace with water feature lawn and shrubs provide a particular feature to the property.
