This beautiful stone building has plenty of country charm, while providing ample space for a family, both inside and out. 

The Mill House is located just outside Ballyshannon in Co Kildare. Built in the mid-19th century, it’s constructed from cut stone and retains lots of period features.

The entrance hallway features parquet floors, which are extremely popular at the moment, and there is storage space under the stairs. To the left of this hallway sits the dining room, which has a dual aspect, and as a result is very bright.

On the opposite side of the hall is are two further reception rooms, which lead to a large conservatory. Both reception rooms have cast iron fireplaces, while the conservatory makes an excellent place to sit and admire the garden. It also has French doors that lead to the garden, perfect for the summer months.

The kitchen to the rear of the home is a generous, airy space. It features traditional timber units, polished granite worktops, and an oil-fired Aga. There is also a utility room and scullery off this space, ensuring that there are functional areas for everything from laundry to storage.

Upstairs, there are five double bedrooms. Two of these have ensuite bathrooms, including the main bedroom, which also features custom-built wardrobes and cabinets.

The property sits on 23 acres, including several paddocks, six horse boxes, and a tennis court. Surrounding the house there is a patio area, a large fenced kitchen garden with a greenhouse, as well as a lawn area surrounded by mature trees and shrubs, and a gravelled driveway.

Located just 50km from Dublin, this home would be suitable for anyone commuting to the capital, while Kildare, Naas and Newbridge are all close by. Click through our gallery above to see the full tour of this home.
