An 84ac farm with a fine house and state-of-the-art equestrian facilities is on the market near Donadea in north Kildare. Dyann House at Mountarmstrong is being sold by Savills guided at €2.25m.
It is located just off the busy R407 which links Kilcock to Naas. The M4 motorway is at one end, the M7 at the other. The entrance to the property is 600m back from the main road, on the L1009.
The property is accessed through a walled gate entrance with piers and electric gates which open to a lengthy tarmacadam driveway, flanked by landscaped lawns and mature trees.
Most of the land is currently in cereals with the rest in pasture and woodland.
The house and yards are together and centrally located on the property, well back from the public road. The land is good-quality. Most of it is in cereals at present – in three fields – with the remainder in pasture and under shelter belts and woodland. The large number of mature trees means the land is well sheltered and the property has good privacy.
The house is very spacious at 7,104 square feet.
Dyann House was built in 1982 to a high standard. It’s laid out over three floors and is very spacious at 7,104ft2 (660m2) There are six bedrooms, one of them in a self-contained, two-storey annex at the rear of the house.

Features of the house include stained-glass windows, cornicing, wood-burning stoves, architraves, ceiling roses, double glazing, wood floors and decorative fireplaces.

Just to the side of the house there is a large U-shaped courtyard. In this yard there are three apartments, two of them one-bed, the other two-bed. There are also stables.
The equestrian facilities include two stable yards with 18 stables and a number of tack rooms. Within one yard there is a barn for general storage and a secure store area.
