Description

A most discerning period style residence on about 9.5 acres (3.91 hectares) set amid mature hardwood trees, with wonderful range of outbuildings & loose boxes. Ideally situated in the northern part of County Kildare, about 15 mins from the M4 at Junction 9, Enfield. Extending to a most manageable 302 sq.m / 3.251 sq.ft, the residence comprises of 5/6 bedrooms, formal sitting room complete with marble fireplace & original cornicing, large kitchen, with double doors opening the dining room or family room. Downstairs also has a large laundry room, guest bedroom & bathroom. The residence is approached through wrought-iron gates leading to the driveway, and is well set back from the road. There is a separate yard entrance, and there is a good range of loose boxes, stone sheds & hay barn. The land is laid out in easily managed paddocks, well fenced with a mixture of stud railing, natural hedging and post & wire. Water is laid on to the main rear land. A lunging arena has not been used for some years. Steeped in local history, it is believed that this house was used as a safe house during the 1916 Rising and that Countess Markievicz stayed in the house. Other visitors to the house included Eamon de Valera. This is a wonderful family home, needing some redecoration, in a great location. School bus transport to Edenderry runs from the front gates, and there are several sports clubs in the locality, with rugby, GAA, soccer & equestrian all within easy reach. BER – E1.
