INDOOR POOL. TENNIS court.
Stables.
Not too shabby, Ashtown Lodge, not too shabby.
On the market for a cool €5,950,000, this mansion is a treat for the eyes, if your eyes like gigantic, ivy-covered houses.
True to its size, there are 10 bedrooms in this Castleknock home, and eight bathrooms.
The estate has three period residences, all of which have been fully refurbished and restored.
It has Tudor origins, but Georgian additions too, so it’s one for those who like their home to have character.
Aside from the considerable heft of the house, there are lots of added extras to enjoy if you made this your dream home.
But let’s stop at the main house first.
At 700m2, it has three reception rooms, a library, sun room, study, pantry, kitchen, and en suite bedrooms as well as a kitchenette.
There’s also an annex to the main house, which has three bedrooms and open-plan kitchen and dining area, as well as the gate lodge, which has six bedrooms.
The coach house, meanwhile, has another six bedrooms and its own indoor swimming pool.
Oh, and there’s a steam room and shower room too.
As for the extras, there are original features like the Georgian fireplaces, plus lots of parking, a tennis court, a huge garden with mature trees, great views from the manicured and landscaped grounds, and statues dotted around the area.
Thirty acres of land come with this property too, which have their own fountains and waterfalls, and a reclaimed Turner observatory.
The owner has direct access to part of the royal canal, as well as a mature orchard and glasshouse for growing their own fruit and veg.
What a life you’d live if this was your home, eh?
Ashtown Lodge is for sale through Vincent Finnegan on Daft.ie
