Description

An impressive family residence on about 2.5 acres set amidst beautifully maintained gardens

Occupying a commanding elevated position amidst the rolling Longford countryside, Riverfield House is an impressive detached family residence extending to approximately 232 sq m (2,497 sq ft), standing on about 2.59 acres of mature grounds, gardens and paddock, with the benefit of a substantial detached garage.

Approached via a sweeping driveway flanked by manicured lawns, the property enjoys exceptional privacy and far-reaching views over the surrounding landscape. The striking façade, complemented by a first-floor balcony, creates an immediate sense of arrival, while the setting provides a wonderful balance of seclusion and accessibility.

The accommodation is generously proportioned and thoughtfully designed for both family living and entertaining. A bright and welcoming entrance hall, centred around an elegant staircase, forms the heart of the home. To either side are two spacious reception rooms, comprising a comfortable living room and a family room, both enjoying excellent natural light and feature fireplaces.

To the rear of the house, the kitchen and dining accommodation provide a wonderful open and sociable space. The well-appointed kitchen offers extensive fitted cabinetry and flows seamlessly into the dining area, where glazed doors frame the surrounding countryside and open onto the exterior. A utility room, guest WC and separate study complete the ground floor accommodation.

At first floor level, a generous galleried landing leads to four well-proportioned double bedrooms. The main bedroom benefits from a private ensuite shower room, while two further bedrooms also enjoys ensuite facilities. The fourth bedroom is served by a family bathroom. A distinctive feature of the property is the large first-floor balcony, accessed from the landing, which provides an outstanding vantage point from which to enjoy the uninterrupted countryside views.

Externally, the property is surrounded by beautifully maintained lawns and extensive patio areas ideal for outdoor entertaining. The detached garage offers excellent storage, workshop potential or space for a range of ancillary uses, subject to the necessary consents. The adjoining paddock further enhances the property's appeal, making it ideally suited to those with equestrian interests, hobby farming aspirations or simply a desire for additional outdoor space.
