Historic Roscommon house with strong Daniel O’Connell links on the market
Frenchlawn House has strong links with the great Irish historical figure, Daniel O’Connell.
Period residence ‘Frenchlawn House’ in Ballintubber, where the great Irish historical figure Daniel O’Connell regularly stayed, has come on the market.
Selling agent, DNG Ivan Connaughton, said the property was a rare opportunity to acquire a country residence, which was previously owned by O’Connell’s daughter, Elizabeth (1810-1893) who married Nicholas Joseph Ffrench in 1831.
This residence is in the ownership of the same family for more than a century and while in need of renovation, 'Frenchlawn' holds much of its original features.
It is an ideal project for those interested in restoring the house to its former glory.
The approach to this historic residence is by entrance gates with a sweeping tree lined driveway offering maximum privacy without impeding the unrivalled views of the lands/countryside to front.
The residence comprises an entrance hall, living room, dining room and kitchen on the ground floor with the first floor comprising a landing, three bedrooms (one en-suite) and a bathroom.
Outbuildings include a garage, coach house and granary with cut limestone and multiple arches.
There is an option to purchase additional lands. The house is situated on more than 85 acres.
