Exceptional residential and amenity estate with a magnificent 19th Century manor home and frontage onto the River Shannon incorporating two islands
Lairakeen House is a privately positioned residential estate set along the banks of the River Shannon, extending to about 54 acres.
At its heart stands an elegant five-bay period residence, dating back to circa 1870, which has been meticulously restored in recent years. As part of the renovation, a new roof was installed, along with updated electrical systems (including a three-story walk-in elevator), modernized plumbing, and a comprehensive security system, seamlessly blending the home's timeless character with contemporary reliability and comfort.
The house offers beautifully proportioned, well-balanced accommodation that harmoniously combines period features with contemporary living standards. Included within the main residence is a double studio, currently fitted as a full sound recording studio and office, which could easily be converted into a cinema room.
A collection of traditional stone outbuildings complements the property, including excellent equestrian facilities. The mature landscaped grounds surrounding the house are thoughtfully planted and impeccably maintained, offering both privacy and a picturesque rural setting. Among the notable features are several Champion Irish Oak trees, which add significant character and heritage to the estate.
The estate includes about 46 acres of quality grassland, divided into well-sized paddocks enclosed by a combination of stud railing, mature hedging, and secure wire fencing, ideally suited for equestrian or agricultural use.
The estate infrastructure has been maintained to a high standard, and the property has been expertly managed under the direction of the current owners.
