APPROACHED VIA A tree-lined avenue with paddocks on either side, Woodridge House and Farm in Dunsany, Co Meath is an immediately impressive property.
The six-bed mansion and its 50 acres of grounds are on the market for a sweet €2.75m through REA T & J Gavigan.
The grounds are sure to appeal to those with equestrian interests, including two stable yards, 19 loose boxes, a feed room, tack room and a hay barn.
There’s a beautiful feature fountain and calming reflecting pool to the front of the house, while mature trees and shrubs add to the sense of privacy. Multiple patios offer scope for entertaining or unwinding outdoors, with beautiful views of the rolling countryside from each.
Stepping inside the house itself, the accommodation spans a massive 8,352 sq ft. The interior oozes luxury from the outset, with features including high ceilings, granite fireplaces, wall panelling and solid wood floors.
A double height reception hall with a raised fanlight sets the tone for the rest of the property. A feature staircase leads to a balcony landing, while the living accommodation is located on either side of the hall.
To the right, there’s a bright and airy study with picture windows and views of the surrounding gardens. To the left, the large dining room leads through to the triple aspect drawing room. In here, there is a feature fireplace, French doors to the gardens and built-in feature shelving.
Moving through to the kitchen, this space is a keen cook’s dream. It features a French-provincial style, with stone flagged floors, a large centre island with a timber worktop, an Aga and an American-style fridge/freezer. For casual dinners and daily dining, there’s room for a dining table to seat eight.
Beyond the kitchen, there’s a cosy living room with a feature fire, a utility room and a cloakroom. A guest suite on the opposite side of the ground floor completes the accommodation at this level.
Upstairs, the gallery landing leads to two master bedroom suites. Each of these bedrooms boasts a walk-in wardrobe, dressing room, walk-in shower and a jacuzzi bath, while one benefits from access to a private balcony.
The three further bedrooms are all generous doubles, with an en-suite bathroom in one and a shared bathroom in the other.
It’s easy to follow the sun at Woodridge House, with a spacious patio on either side. For late summer evenings when the temperature starts to drop, there’s a built-in solid fuel stove at one of these patios.
Location-wise, Dunsany village is a short stroll away, while Dunshaughlin is less than a five-minute drive. The property benefits from being close to both Slane Castle and Killeen Castle, as well as many stud farms and other equestrian establishments. Via the nearby M3, the drive to Dublin city should take about 40 minutes.
With an immaculate interior and magnificent grounds, Woodridge House will undoubtedly make for a special home for its lucky new owner.
Woodridge House And Farm, Killeen, Dunsany, Co Meath is on the market for €2,750,000 through Daft.ie.

This is great! We’ll be able to watch live as these snakes sell this country out from under us and sell it’s people into slavery.
Ah damn. Was hoping to be the first to post one of these tired, overposted comments.
The Oireachtas has been available to watch on the Net for a few years now. So for those who can’t wait for a channel to appear on Saorview,
http://www.oireachtas.ie/ViewDoc.asp?fn=/documents/livewebcast/Web-Live.htm&CatID=83&m=o

WOW, televised empty seats.
What, empty seats?! Surely the amount they claim in expenses for travel and overnight must mean their there all the time…
Who will watch it ? Hey here is a plan …. Why not pipe it into all classrooms in the country …
I think Eileen that could be classified as Child Abuse if it were to happen.I love my kids too much to have them subjected to constant lies and bullshit.
wouldn’t we want our students to be engaged and learning Eileen rather than bored asleep????? Think of the children lolololol ;-)
:) :) :) Lol ,Lol,
I am glad we all still have a sense of humpr :)
i did not know there was such a dedicated T.V. channel what have i been missing here lol
Who in their right mind would want to watch this bunch of sneering,smirking assholes.Ni difference between any of them.All greedy in it for themselves assholes.Here ends my rant.
PEOPLE, ISN’T OIREACHTAS REPORT ENOUGH ?
what are we going to watch. the Dail is never in session. it’ll be reruns of bertie, brian, charlie and all the other crooks over the years.
Good God..how much will.this crap cost! Is there noone to say STOP! Our public services at frontline are creaking…our young and not so young are fleeing faster than.the anfield cat and our gloruous leaders want to have their own tv channel….i feel.like yer boy on.Harry Enfield…NO!!!
It will lead to greater public scrutiny of the goings on in the Oireachtas, surely that can only be a good thing? In light of what went on in there that “brought us to our knees” and lead to the “current economic climate” and “[insert horrendously overused cliché to describe the late-2000s recession here]“, “bankers”, “bondholders”, “Merkozy”, “WAKE UP PEOPLE” and so forth.
Sorry Muc all decisions happen in committee and private cabinet meetings never ever in front of cameras and never will.
No, all the legislation is debated and voted upon in the Dáil. Pretty fundamental stuff there Norman.
Muc the recent debate in the Dail reference the internet copyright act decision already taken before debate.
That was a statutory instrument, it wasn’t required. Debate happened in spite of that. Actual legislation has to be passed by the Dáil, as is the case in most parliamentary democracies/representative republics.
If you have kids in secondary school, pick up one of their CSPE books and learn the law-making process, separation of powers and the general basics of how a state functions before you go on ill-informed, cynical rants about the government. It’s really not that complicated
Ah yes I can see it now celebrity T D
Celebrity Minister Lotto draw to see what patients get seen this week probably hosted by some tallaght tv air head.
Jesus is there no end to this waste
Maybe KPMG could stand over the debates and say if they’re impartial.
You realise that this expansion is only been suggested so these useless twats in the Seanad can keep/justify their jobs!
A business plan! There’s no money in it. This is exactly what the national public service broadcaster should be doing – Hello RTE? BBC Parliament is the model but they want to waste cash on a tender to advise? Just tell RTE to do it – they’ve loads of spare capacity on the white elephant that is Saorview – they’d be able to claim a whole EIGHT channels then!
How much will the special consultants for makeup and hair cost us?
Don’t forget photography…
if the Gov are serious about this isn’t there a state broadcaster that could do it at very little cost?
But again – who would watch it? It’s so tedious – that’s why they show that political show on RTE really late at night so it’ll help insomniacs sleep.
and as Colm mentioned, front line staff and services in the country are crumbling and this is just a complete waste of money (no matter how little it costs)
It needs to be more widely available – Sky, Saorview as well as UPC. More homes have Sky I think then UPC.
A waste of money. They are barley able to keep the main tv Channels going. Have they not already got time on main stream television How many people would want to watch it anyway.In the present climate it is a non starter. Money can be better spent elsewhere.
Put the whole feckin’ thing on-line and make sure there’s a censorship free comments section with a thumbs up/down option. Instantaneous public feedback! And a nightly highlights show, with a panel that discusses the issues of the day and the most popular points raise in the comments section. Online would also be way more cost effective.
Tadhg, I was thinking of a LED display board on the back of the House (just like kid’s TV when b’day wishes etc are sent in) where we could text them about their filibustering. ;-) It’d have to be severely edited I think lol
Have it on UPC. Came in handy when I was trying to follow the debate on the copyright SI.
Folks if you don’t like the people on the TV, don’t put them there in the first place!
Get real, please. I mean please. Of course, maybe the feasibility study will realise that all the people at work soon after the Jobs Initiative won’t have time to watch this.
So polite.
Disgusted at the anti-openness comments on this feed. Looks like the conspiracy theorists have taken over the comments section of journal.ie! I wish ye’d cop on to yourselves!
Well considering the money currently being spent on televising the oireachtas and dail leaves the state (the last tender was awarded to a northern irish company) hopefully they will consider supporting local companies a priority for any further tenders.
Dario if you’d thrown a few more noughts on your €10 bid and buddied up with any of the TDs, you’d have been a shoe-in!!!!! ;-)
have your say
