A fine equestrian property has come on the market in Castletown, complete with an impressive stone house.
Located off the N7 south of Mountrath, near the golf club, Knockanina House at Castletown is 15 minutes from Roscrea and Portlaoise, and close to the M7 motorway.
This beautiful stone house is surrounded by lovely stands of old trees on a beautiful undulating site.
It offers a magnificent tranquil home that has been superbly maintained and appointed.
The property is approached via a pretty stone walled entrance with impressive iron gates remotely accessed for increased security and privacy.
The sweeping tarmacadam driveway meanders through some impressive mature trees and on to the residence.
The house has been superbly appointed throughout and offers a magnificently blend of modern accommodation and country house charm. There are three reception rooms and 4 double bedrooms, three of which are ensuite.
The master bedroom enjoys a massive ensuite bedroom.
According to Hume Auctioneers, perhaps the most impressive room in the house is the light filled master reception room which enjoys panoramic views over the paddocks.
Outside the rolling 5.5 acres is laid out in individual paddocks with a second access point leading to the working yard.
The yard is complete with old stone sheds and a glorious modern stable block complete with individual boxes, tack room and adjoining storage shed. There is a sand arena adjoining the paddocks.
Amongst all of this there is still ample room for the private gardens adjoining the house.
The property is described as an ideal one for a family with an equestrian interest.
First listed last month, the property is on the market for €495,000.
