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.

Peeyow…. Had to make that noise watchin it!
Our world rotates at 1600 km/hr,
we travel around the Sun at 107,000 km/hr.. and around our galaxy at 792,000 km/hr..
But I’ll be fcuked if I put up with this Household Charge!
Brilliant
Just remember that you’re standing on a planet that’s evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour
That’s orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it’s reckoned
A sun that is the source of all our power
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour
Of the galaxy we call the ‘milky way’
Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars
It’s a hundred thousand light years side to side
It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick
But out by us, it’s just three thousand light years wide
We’re thirty thousand light years from galactic central point
We go ’round every two hundred million years
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe
The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whizz
As fast as it can go, the speed of light, you know
Twelve million miles a minute and that’s the fastest speed there is
So remember, when you’re feeling very small and insecure
How amazingly unlikely is your birth
And pray that there’s intelligent life somewhere up in space
‘Cause there’s bugger all down here on Earth
United States, Canada, Mexico, Panama, Haiti, Jamaica, Peru;
Republic Dominican, Cuba, Caribbean, Greenland, El Salvador too.
Puerto Rico, Columbia, Venezuela, Honduras, Guyana, and still;
Guatemala, Bolivia, then Argentina, and Ecuador, Chile, Brazil…
Animaniacs taught me so much.
I wonder if an asteroid was on a collision course with Earth. Would there be a plan on how to stop it. I doubt it
A well plced trampoline is the best I can think of.
It’ll probably involve AC Milan. If they can stop Barcelona ………
Be a huar if it hit westmeath
Chuck Norris’s erect penis could stop it.
We could just send out a few Anglo Irish bankers, if they can make billions disappeared into their black hole then a small thing like an astronomical disaster should be easy….
Right I’ll grab my coat.
Or everyone into Ned Flanders bunker..
We live in a precarious world.
And I am just a material girl…
Ah Dillon, how’s your wifes sister?
That was quick. Kinda glad I didn’t make the journey out to see it with binoculars, would have been boring and a waste of my time. Lol lovely snapshot though
Nice video. There’s so many satellites! Allot of it space junk.
But at 23 seconds there’s two satellites moving parallel to each other (tricky to spot), these maybe a pair of Naval Ocean Surveillance System (NOSS) satellites, a very distinctive pair of Spy satellites that orbit in formation, they intercept and locate ship communications.
Almost everything there is–just about all of it, is up *there*.
The good news is that we are a very, very tiny target, and we’re a *moving* target. So most stuff misses us. Most.
Not all.
Moving doesn’t really help. It’s not like they’re aiming at us.
Meteor my eye …that’s thor’s lance ! ………. l.o.l.
3.24, pm or am?
It seems to have smashed into something that disintegrated? What? Bertie’s orbiting safe vault hopefully!
have your say
