An imposing Presbytery with about 22 acres on the Wicklow / Kildare border
The Presbytery (formerly Hillsborough Hall)
This house, once known as Hillsborough Hall is located adjacent to the Our Lady of Mercy Church. The Presbytery is a two-storey, three-bay house built around 1860, with a smaller single-storey section to the rear. The design is symmetrical, with a round-headed doorway in the centre, in keeping with builds of the time. The house still shows much of its original character including cut-stone Gibbsian doorcase with a decorative fanlight, a slate roof, and timber-panelled shutters on the windows.
The accommodation briefly comprises of two reception rooms front of the house with a kitchen / dining room and bathroom to the rear.
Upstairs there are 3 large bedrooms (two ensuite) with one accessed from the kitchen, and a single room/ nursery / office.
The property is in need of complete modernisation subject to the relevant planning permissions but offers a buyer the opportunity to redevelop a beautiful period home on its own grounds.
A full layout of accommodation is shown on the adjoining floorplans.
Grounds & Outbuildings
The house is set back from the road with a tarmac driveway to the front of the property surrounded by well-kept lawn gardens. To the rear, around a central courtyard, there is a group of outbuildings, which also keep many of their original features and materials such as slate roofs, whitewashed stone walls, and original timber doors and windows Altogether, the buildings form a well-preserved and historic setting and have endless potential to convert and redesign.
Farmland
The land is in 5 divisions, is bordered on two sides by public roads, gently slopes towards the N81 and has 3 access points. The land is in good order with very little waste and has been leased until recently. Mature trees and hedgerow form the boundary both internally and along the border and are well cared for.
