Carefully extended home

A STONE house dating from the Victorian era and with 5/6 bedrooms in Co Laois might attract commuters to the capital as it’s close to the N7, the main Dublin Limerick Road.

Off a private, tree-lined avenue, the property is spacious and comfortable, says selling agent Anne-Louise Mitchell, and she gives a guide price of €490,000 for Hollymount House.

Carefully restored the house has recently had a good extension added at the back, and it also comes with two grazing paddocks and a number of outbuildings, which could, perhaps, have commercial potential, she says.
