Description

Residential and agricultural estate with amenity situated close to Lough Ree Rathcline House is a distinguished period residence occupying a commanding, elevated position at the heart of the estate, offering sweeping views across the surrounding countryside. Approached via an impressive stone-pillared entrance with cast-iron gates, the driveway winds through mature parkland, gradually ascending towards the house and culminating at the front entrance, where there is ample space for parking. This elegant four-bay, 19th-century residence sits beneath a hipped slate roof and is arranged over two storeys above a basement. The accommodation is of generous proportions, with beautifully preserved period features throughout, including ornate ceiling roses, decorative cornicing, original sash windows, detailed architraves, and striking marble fireplaces. Extending to approximately 5,195 sq ft, the house comprises four reception rooms and eight bedrooms. The light-filled entrance hall, accessed via limestone steps, features polished wooden flooring and leads directly to the principal reception rooms. The drawing room, located to the front of the house, enjoys panoramic views through a graceful bay window and flows seamlessly into both the dining room and sitting room, creating a superb space for both family living and entertaining. Also on the ground floor are a study and an additional bedroom. On the garden level, the kitchen features an extensive range of bespoke floor and wall-mounted units. Adjacent is a cosy sitting room with an open fireplace, along with a further bedroom, making this level ideal for guests or staff accommodation. The main bedroom accommodation is located on the first floor and includes a spacious master suite, along with five additional bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate shower room. Gardens and Grounds Rathcline House is set within wonderful mature gardens and grounds, with the surrounding countryside providing an incredible backdrop. To the front of the house are sloping lawns with a diverse assortment of flora and outstanding specimen trees, providing colour, shelter, and privacy. Outbuildings To the rear of the property is a traditional courtyard framed by a series of stores and six stables. The scale and arrangement of these buildings offer excellent potential for alternative uses, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Beyond the courtyard lies an additional range of farm buildings and a walled garden, currently used as a turnout paddock and a sand arena. The outbuildings can be accessed via a separate farm entrance. Farmland The farmland at Rathcline is enclosed by a combination of stud railing, mature hedging, and stone walls, and comprises gently undulating grassland and mature woodland. The field divisions are of a good, workable size and layout for contemporary farming. Each field is equipped with drinking troughs connected to the mains water supply.
