Historic Tudor Revival Residence Set on 80.5 Hectares with River Frontage

About the Property

A historic Tudor Revival residence dating from 1842, Ardsallagh House is set within approximately 80.5 hectares (199 acres) of picturesque agricultural land and mature grounds, located just outside Navan, County Meath, Ireland. This property, originally built for the Duke of Bedford, offers a rare opportunity for restoration, featuring river frontage along the Boyne and a commanding outlook over its gardens and surrounding countryside. The estate is approached via a main entrance at Bective Bridge, with a driveway flanked by mature trees that creates an inviting sense of arrival. A gate lodge, requiring restoration, is positioned at the entrance, while a secondary access point is located beside Boyne Hill House. The main residence stands centrally within its lands, surrounded by a traditional courtyard framed by a range of stone outbuildings, which present significant potential for conversion to guest accommodation or leisure facilities, subject to planning permission. A walled garden further enhances the charm and possibilities of this cohesive country estate in the heart of the Boyne Valley. Internally, Ardsallagh House boasts grand reception rooms adorned with original period detailing, including a vaulted entrance hall with intricate plasterwork and a sweeping staircase. The drawing and dining rooms feature large bay windows overlooking the grounds and river, complemented by fine marble fireplaces and decorative ceilings, albeit in need of careful restoration. The ground floor also includes a sitting room, study, and kitchen, all retaining their period character. The first floor accommodates generous bedroom suites, with the principal suite comprising a dressing room and en suite bathroom, while additional bedrooms are served by further bathrooms. The basement extends the full footprint of the house, housing former service areas and offering significant potential for reconfiguration.
