    About this property

    • Lot 1 - Rossbrien House (About 6.4 acres)
      Situated on the edge of Limerick City, Rossbrien House is an impressive family home occupying a secluded position at the end of a County Council maintained road, surrounded
      by mature trees and farmland.

      Entered through two stone piers, the house is approached via a winding gravel driveway flanked by terraced lawns and leads to a parking area to the front of the house. Dating back to pre 1900's, Rossbrien House is a well-designed country residence with a stone exterior beneath a hip slated roof with dressed stone quoins.

      The spacious and comfortable accommodation is laid out over two storeys, as shown on the accompanying plans. The detail and finishes internally are notable, with the accommodation
      being equally suitable for modern family living and entertaining. An array of internal period features can be found throughout the house including decorative ceiling roses, cornicing, architraves, picture rails and bay windows with shutters.

      The accommodation is entered through a large wooden door with fanlight and pointed arch which leads into a bright entrance hall. This gives access to the two main reception rooms which are laid out to the front of the house. A spacious office with mezzanine contains a bathroom with shower as well as double glass doors leading onto a charming courtyard. The kitchen lies to the rear of the property and comprises a beautifully crafted and extensive range of floor and wall mounted units. Additionally on the ground is a cosy sitting room with French windows leading onto a garden patio and a utility room with bathroom.

      The bedroom accommodation is laid out on the first floor comprising a main bedroom suite with walk-in-wardrobe and bathroom, as well as five additional bedrooms, a bathroom and office.

      Outbuildings
      To the rear of the property lies a beautiful stone courtyard which features six stables and several traditional stores. In 2004, one of the former cowsheds in the courtyard underwent a transformation into a multipurpose function space, featuring a polished concrete floor. Since then, the current owners have utilised it for hosting family weddings and various gatherings.

      Gardens
      The house sits amidst mature landscaped garden grounds which are predominantly laid to lawn. There is a well-stocked flowerbed to the side of the house flanked by a beautiful
      stone wall. Also to the side of the property is a spacious terrace area, which is an idyllic setting for al fresco dining and enjoying a long summer's evening. From here, steps lead up to an orchard which consists of an array of mature fruit trees including, apple, pear and fig trees.

      Farm Buildings
      A range of farm buildings are situated beyond the traditional courtyard and are entered through a separate farm entrance. The farm buildings include an old dairy unit and a Dutch barn with lean-to which contains 57 cubicles. The farmyard also includes hardstanding and a collecting arena with livestock handling facilities.
      The property also features a 35m x 25m sand arena fenced by stud railing and Beech hedging.

      Farmland
      Lot 1 extends to about 6.4 acres in total and includes a 3-acre grass paddock enclosed by stud railing and mature hedging. This paddock is well-suited for turning out horses or
