Nestled amidst the unspoilt countryside of rural Carlow, and bound by the magnificent River Slaney. Carlow is renowned for its rich heritage and excellent lands.

The house is approached from the road through a splayed entrance with wrought iron electric gates up an avenue parallel to the river which sweep through the landscape to the broad gravel forecourt. The classic house is impressive by its grandeur and scale; however it exudes character and style, which has made it a most fantastic family home.
