About this property

  • The subject property in its entirety has a site area of approximately 21.2 acres. The land which accommodates a large 6 bedroom Georgian property on approximately 0.36 ha (0.9 acres), benefits from a new access point and extensive frontage to the Mill Road, approximately 105 metres. The land which slopes gradually from east to west benefits from a mature tree line which runs along each boundary providing the upmost of privacy, while a large stone constructed wall acts as a boundary along the north and eastern boundaries providing further seclusion. The land also benefits from direct access to services with a wastewater, watermain and ESB line traversing the site and readily available for connection. The surrounding area is a mix of mature residential estate type developments, such as Brookhaven Walk and The Hermitage to the north and mature agricultural landholdings located to the west and to the south.

    The residence itself is of some historical and architectural merit and is listed in the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage as being a structure of 'Regional Importance'. However it is not listed as protected structures in the Limerick City Development Plan.
