Description
Partry House is a wonderfully charming house with great history and character in a unique and secluded old estate by the shores of Lough Carra in scenic County Mayo. Party House estate wraps around a bay on Lough Carra and with the main house centrally and beautifully positioned within this 100 hectare (248 acres) land holding overlooking the shores of the southern most end of Lough Carra to which the estate has 4km lake frontage. The extensive native Irish oak, hazel & birch woodland provide perfect habitat for wildlife such as pine martin and the protected limestone shores are noted for rare species of orchid, autumn mushrooms, and extensive bird and insect life. Upon driving through the cut stone arched entrance, attention is immediately alerted and within moments enhanced by the charming approach of the avenue along the lake front and through the parkland which eventually leads to the front of the house. The house is well presented with spacious but intimate reception rooms, all of a manageable scale. The rooms are bright, well-proportioned and throughout the house there are exquisite period features, such as Georgian cornicing and friezes and the antique marble chimney pieces. Lake and parkland vistas can be enjoyed through the many large traditional Georgian single panel windows. Since purchasing the property in 1995, the present owners have invested considerable time and expenditure restoring the house, while retaining the integrity of the original period features. Their efforts went far beyond the residence; the estate has also been brought back to its former self. Today it is a haven for wildlife and a nature reserve which can be enjoyed from so many different aspects, whether boating on the lake, taking a leisurely stroll through one of the many walks, peacefully sitting in the gardens or enjoying lunch by the boathouse. The sale of Partry is a rare opportunity afforded to acquire an original estate offering boating and fishing on the lake, woodland walks and a manageable period home in walk in condition.
