Property with garden Dublin (Ireland)

Discreetly hidden behind a laurel-laden entrance on Killiney Hill Road, Druid Lodge is a rare and deeply atmospheric coastal residence of exceptional privacy, history and architectural presence. Set on approximately 1.2 acres of mature, well-tended grounds, this storied home unfolds as a place of calm authority and gentle drama, where sea views are revealed only once the gravelled sweep opens before you. Part-Victorian, part-Georgian, Druid Lodge is a house of layers, of eras, of craftsmanship, of lives well lived. From the moment the gates close behind you, the outside world falls away, replaced by birdsong, filtered light and the ever-present shimmer of the sea. Few houses in Ireland carry their past as gracefully as Druid Lodge. Among its most notable residents was John Blake Dillon—politician, Young Irelander and writer—who, after exile to the United States in 1848, returned to Ireland and married Adelaide Hart, niece of the then owner. In his memoir, Dillon wrote: “I associate all the happiest memories of my life with Druid Lodge.” That sense of contentment and refuge still permeates the house today. Extending to approximately 545 sq m (5,877 sq ft) over three levels, the house offers six bedrooms and generous reception rooms. Purchased in 1979, the house has been lovingly cared for by owners with a deep appreciation for architecture and art. As a protected structure, Druid Lodge showcases an exceptional level of original detail, meticulously restored and preserved. The entrance hall sets the tone immediately: light-filled and elegant, with original stripped timber floors, an exquisite green Connemara marble fireplace, intricate coving and elaborately carved architraves. The restored stairwell is a particular triumph—both sculptural and serene. To the left lies the dining room, a grand yet inviting space with soaring 4.2m ceiling heights, a black marble fireplace with inset stove, and tall sash windows framing sea views. These lofty proportions are mirrored in the principal rooms above, lending the house an air of calm confidence. Across the hall, the drawing room is equally impressive, with tall windows, a fine marble fireplace and doors opening into a conservatory added in the mid-1990s—an elegant transition between house and garden, ideal for long afternoons and soft coastal light. While the property would benefit from selective modernisation, any upgrades can be thoughtfully executed to enhance, rather than dilute, its remarkable original features. To the rear of the ground floor lies a fully self-contained apartment with its own entrance. Comprising two en suite bedrooms, a study, a family bathroom, and a kitchen-living room, this space offers exceptional flexibility. It may be retained as a rental, used for extended family or adult children, or reintegrated into the main house. Historically, this area would have served as the original kitchens and staff quarters. Ascending from the main hall, the Georgian return reveals a beautifully panelled sitting room with adjoining sunroom—formerly the owner’s study—offering a peaceful retreat within the house. Behind it lies the kitchen, a truly characterful space finished with terracotta tiles and anchored by an old Aga that gently warms the room. Two tall, wood-framed windows with built-in benches invite long pauses and garden views. The cupboards here were hand-built using shutters salvaged from the Sacred Heart Convent on Leeson Street, a detail emblematic of the house’s thoughtful reuse of historic materials. Also on this level are a pantry, two storerooms, and a guest WC. A blocked-off staircase hints at the house’s original circulation, while a tall stained-glass arched window illuminates the stairs to the top floor. Three charming west-facing bedrooms overlook the gardens, accompanied by a family bathroom and a dressing room—equally suited to use as a bedroom or study.

The Village at Lyons represents not simply a property, but a living piece of Irish heritage, where re-crafted centuries-old stone buildings, landscaped courtyards, gardens complete with feature lake and water mill combine to create a setting of exceptional charm and distinction The Village at Lyons is a privately owned, beautifully restored historic village set within a pastoral landscape of rolling farmland, mature trees and waterways - an enchanting destination just a 30-minute drive from Dublin. The Village at Lyons sits beside Lyons Hill, an early medieval royal site that was the home of the Kings of Leinster from c.760AD. Originally developed in the 18 th and 19 th centuries as a thriving canal-side milling village, the buildings that form today's 20-acre estate evolved into a village in the 1820's, which had the Jolly Angler Inn, a police barracks, a lock yard, a Church of Ireland school and a towering four storey watermill. The flourmill was run by Joseph P. Shackleton, a relative of the famous Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton. The Village At Lyons was meticulously restored in the 1990's under the ownership of Dr. Tony Ryan, visionary founder of Ryanair, who dedicated himself to bringing this important Irish village back to its former glory with a passionate focus on preserving its historical character. Today, the village forms an elegant collection of rose-clad cottages arranged around intimate squares and gardens, each one carefully curated to honour the estate's rich architectural heritage while offering contemporary comfort and functionality. Every element of this remarkable property has been painstakingly restored by globally renowned master craftsmen, and the result reflects a deep respect for Ireland's craft traditions and architectural heritage. The Village at Lyons stands as one of the rarest private estate villages in Ireland and combines the timeless allure of Ireland’s historic villages with the comforts of contemporary luxury, creating a truly enchanting sanctuary. Accessed via a gated tree-lined avenue, the village immediately conveys a sense of tranquillity and grandeur. The property spans approximately 20 acres of idyllic grounds, featuring flourishing gardens, orchards, and placid waterways. Interiors showcase remarkable antique detailing and embellishments, complemented by stylish furnishings chosen with meticulous attention to detail, preserving the estate’s singular character. Accommodation includes cozy cottages, an award-winning spa and several dining and entertaining venues perfect for private use or entertaining on a grand scale. Beyond the bounds of the village, the landscape opens toward world-class stud farms, championship golf courses, and notable country houses, all deeply connected to the natural surroundings. While deeply tranquil and rooted in nature, The Village at Lyons sits only a short drive from Dublin's centre - offering a rare combination of rural serenity and urban accessibility. Opportunities to acquire a complete historic village are almost unheard of. The Village at Lyons offers a singular chance to steward a piece of Ireland's cultural and architectural heritage whilst shaping its next chapter. Whether envisioned as a private estate of extraordinary distinction; a flagship leisure destination, global leadership wellness or creative retreat; or a long-term heritage investment, this remarkable property presents a truly unparalleled offering in the Irish market.

House with garden Rathkeale (Ireland)

The Old Rectory sits at the heart of a thriving, cultivated demesne situated on 28 acres. The beautifully proportioned classical house addresses a lawn surrounded by trees. It is not quite what it seems. The façade projects the modest comfort and good taste appropriate for a country rectory, but inside, it is a house fit for a bishop. Radiating from the house are the wing, basement, outbuildings, yards, walled garden and demesne; all supported a life lived on a magnificent scale. The Old Rectory was built in 1819 for Charles Warburton, the son of a Protestant bishop, and the grandson of a blind Catholic harpist. The architect is unrecorded, but Warburton more than likely engaged James Pain, the talented English architect who had recently moved to Ireland to work with John Nash, to design his new house. Other rectories with similar elevations would have contained two or maybe three rooms on the ground floor, four modest-sized bedrooms and a basement for the servants. That the Old Rectory was far grander is immediately apparent on entry into the hall, where the gently calibrated stair rises from under a broad elliptical arch supported by gilded Corinthian columns. The large reception rooms – morning room, drawing room, dining room – each with long shuttered windows, panelled doors and elegant ceiling plasterwork – interconnect, bringing a wonderful sense of spaciousness to the house. There was also a library. Upstairs there were three large bedrooms each with a dressing room. Such a house was run by servants who had their own stair and lived and worked in the wing and the vast basement. The present owner, who grew up in the house, has restored and fully serviced the house without sacrificing its historic integrity. The house has been modernized but has escaped modernism. Measures taken to provide contemporary services are discreet. Warm air heats the house through ducts concealed in the attic and basement. The house has been rewired. Fibre-optic cable for highspeed broadband has been installed, and there is WIFI coverage to all the buildings on the estate. Running parallel to the house is a tunnel with an abrupt end. A subterranean mystery. Perhaps a place to retreat to; a reminder of early nineteenth-century Ireland when there was unrest in the countryside and when, in 1807, the bishop, Warburton’s father, was shot at in Limerick. The steel-plated ground-floor shutters and the bars that secure them are a witness to those troubled times. The tremendous repair work carried out over thirty years extends to the outbuildings, yards and gardens. The impression of care is palpable when you enter the red-painted gates of the avenue: the rose under the young trees, the bee hives towards the house. This love extends to the stables where large-scale renovation ensures a structurally stable roof composed of old and new timbers, a rebuilt stair and invisible steel beams for a building that retains its rough walls and dusty atmosphere: a building saved for the future. The life that is palpable in this house extends to the gardens. In the orchard traditional apple tree scions have been grafted onto existing rootstocks and Shropshire sheep graze the grass. The woods have been extended with plantings of hazel, beech, birch, and saplings inoculated with truffles planted ten years ago. The organic-certified field to the north of the house is grazed by Droimeann cattle, a native Irish breed. Barn owls and many other birds thrive in this diverse landscape. In a house where gold gilds the Corinthian columns while even after a thorough overhaul the stable retains the depredations of age, it is clear that the place has been loved for what it is. This is unusual and precious. The Old Rectory and the land that surrounds it waits for the next chapter in its existence, confident that it has the strength to remain old in the modern world.

Property with garden Kilbrittain (Ireland)

An extremely attractive and magical 18th-century castle gloriously positioned within private parkland that enjoys a prominent position overlooking the sea and up the estuary to Courtmacsherry Bay and just an 18-minute drive from fashionable Kinsale town. In all about 56 acres (23 Hectares). 6-receptions, 9-bedrooms, 6-bathrooms. Pastoral views over undulating countryside combine gloriously with expansive sea views to give impressive and panoramic vistas from the castle and grounds. A tree lined avenue provides a magical approach, from where a stone arch leads to an inner courtyard. Attractive stone walls providing an extremely pleasant aesthetic. The house is presented in superb condition and is simply magical, the symmetrical five-bay original Georgian house wonderfully augmented by the 19th-century castellated tower and battlemented parapet walls to create a beautifully attractive and fun house. The accommodation is well laid out and updated to readily allow comfortable living, seamlessly incorporating modern convenience whilst retaining fantastic historical character. The reception rooms are impressive with large windows and generous ceiling heights and link excellently to allow superb entertaining yet are each of a scale to be comfortable. The generous kitchen with the wonderfully large table is a great space and superbly designed to allow congenial informal gathering for family and guests. There are ample bedroom suites, and the first-floor sunroom conservatory is exceptional. Ivy-clad and of local cut stone the outbuildings blend seamlessly into the castellated surroundings and include 3-stables and a 3-bedroom lodge. The gardens and grounds are glorious. Extremely private and sheltered but with excellent sea views still afforded. A blend of formal terraces and manicured lawns within the immediate gardens into less formal gardens and the wider parkland works superbly. The use of manicured pathways throughout the parkland working extremely well to seamlessly link the gardens to the wider lands and providing highly useable walks. The outer coastal lands very much connect the estate to the sea and provide some lovely private coves and beaches. Coolmain beach is noted for its pristine powdery sand. Overall, the various component parts of the estate all combine to present a truly magical and attractive circa 56-acre estate. Coolmain Castle has a rich and magical provenance and has been home to the Disney family for the past 35-years. Purchased by Roy E. Disney, nephew of Walt Disney and vice-charman of the Walt Disney Company, in 1989 and comprehensively restored and updated Coolmain Castle has been meticulously maintained ever since.
