The brief from the owners when working on the design was to construct a contemporary house bearing in mind the traditional Irish farmhouse and the surrounding landscape.

The completed design certainly achieves this where the old is clearly visible in the new.

Thick, white rendered walls recall the lime – washed stone of old farmhouses along with the barn-like semi- barrel structure with its copper roofing material inspired by the corrugated metal roofing long used on Irish barns.

The property is approached via electric gates leading to a sweeping tree -lined post and railed avenue. The beautifully appointed and stunningly presented light infused accommodation flows seamlessly from the impressive high entrance hallway leading to the Western wing which accommodates, within high vaulted ceilings, living and dining areas that avail of panoramic views to the south and west through large windows and glazed doors opening out onto terraces extending into the landscape.

The kitchen is located centrally at the heart of the home and benefits from sun all day long.

The bedrooms are in a more secluded northeastern extension and although they benefit from views and light to the south and west, they are afforded privacy by a landscaped walled courtyard.

The interior is meticulously designed to create a seamless flow between rooms, offering tasteful design and high- quality finishes throughout.

Enclosure walls around the outdoor spaces mean they are shielded from view by any cars, passing through to the stables, paddocks, and horse training areas beyond the house.

Ardnalea stands on a private, enclosed site. With frontage onto the local road, it is in one regular shaped division with mature boundaries on all sides.

The gardens were designed for low maintenance with various lawns broken up with patios and courtyards all to provide ideal private areas to enjoy the sunshine and tranquility.
