All manor of finery: auction set for Kilheffernan House

KILHEFFERNAN House is old, but its adjoining cottage is older - dating back to the 16th century.

Given this long history, the Georgian house is adorned with period trimmings and architectural finery, all worn with pride.

Stone sills, slate roofs, pitch pine, marble fire-places, shutters and sash windows all compete for attention, and the grounds have some specimen trees, too.
