COMMITTING TO A large estate is not for the faint-hearted. But for anyone who lives and breathes horses, a place like Mount Corbitt House could be an absolute dream business opportunity – especially for anyone raising a family, too.
Nestled in the charming village of Churchtown, the stunning Mount Corbitt House offers a unique blend of period charm and modern equestrian facilities. Priced at €4,500,000, this amazing property has a floor area of 530 m² and features six bedrooms and seven bathrooms.
Mount Corbitt House is a purpose-built equestrian haven complete with amazing facilities. The main residence, a grand Georgian-style house dating back to 1780, offers plenty of elegant living space across four floors. The home is dotted with period features throughout, including high ceilings, large sash windows, intricate woodwork and handcrafted shutters.
Highlights inside the huge house include multiple reception rooms with open fires and great views of the surrounding countryside.
The kitchen and dining room is a vast, open plan space with exposed beams, chandeliers and a handcrafted kitchen centred around a large island and Aga.
The first floor features a luxurious main suite with an en suite bathroom, plus three additional bedrooms that all have their own bathrooms. The second floor houses three more bedrooms and a bathroom.
The house is surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens, a paved terrace and an orchard.
Mount Corbitt’s equestrian facilities are second to none, featuring 47 stables, a 4.5 furlong uphill gallop, a 4 furlong round gallop and a cross-country course designed by Peter Fell of Ballindenisk. The property also includes an indoor school, two horse walkers, and a schooling ground, all meticulously maintained and developed by specialists.
The estate includes two charming cottages, Rose Cottage and Lavender Cottage, both ideal for renting out. The historic courtyard houses further bedrooms and six stables, so there’s ample space for staff or guests.
Adjacent to Mount Corbitt is Ballygrace House, a Georgian-style property previously used for staff accommodation. Recently let in the private rental sector, Ballygrace includes three bedrooms, a utility room and a carefully restored courtyard with four stables and overhead storage. Separate roadways connect Ballygrace with Mount Corbitt, but both properties can be easily subdivided
