Ballindoolin House is an elegant and substantial late Georgian house, situated in a beautiful, private demesne of 250 acres / 101 hectares comprising formal gardens, parkland, woodland, a working farm and gate lodge. Positioned in a peaceful country setting, yet only 70 km from Dublin City.
Ballindoolin House is a four bay, three storey house over basement, built of roughly squared and coursed local limestone.
The house remains intact with all of its original plasterwork, joinery and fireplaces. There is an impressive entrance hall, with a drawing room and dining room to either side. To the rear of the spacious main hall is the staircase hall, featuring an elegant staircase. Leading off this hall there is a living room, study and small kitchen.
There are eight bedrooms at first floor level of which some of these could provide the new owner with the opportunity of creating additional bathrooms.
The top floor comprises a large apartment with kitchen, bathroom, living room and three bedrooms. Ideal as staff accommodation with a back staircase leading to ground floor and basement.
At basement level there are a number of large and useful rooms arranged around a central hall which features a vaulted ceiling. These rooms include the original kitchen range, store rooms, staff rooms, utility room and wine cellar.
The house is approached by a sweeping drive, bordered by mature trees and parkland, completely hidden from public view.
At the estate entrance there is a very attractive Palladian style gate lodge, which was designed by William Morrison originally for the Duke of Abercorn. It comprises a living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom.
