A very fine, top-of-the-range property has come on the market in Co Wicklow. It’s Upper Aughrim Estate which is located 1km from Aughrim village. This is very much in the heart of beautiful Wicklow – with the Wicklow coast to the east and the mountains on the other side.
The property includes a lovely residence – Upper Aughrim House, dating from about 1760. It also includes good farmland, currently let out and used for tillage. The estate is brought to the market by Savills and is for sale by private treaty as a whole or in four separate lots.
The tillage land is free draining.
There are many highlights to this property. One stressed by the agents is privacy. This, of course, is because a period property like this, with the house and its extensive courtyards in very good condition, will be of interest to international buyers seeking a quiet bolthole within reasonable distance of an international airport.
The house has three large reception rooms, a conservatory and six bedrooms. There’s a formal garden, greenhouse and orchard – all properly maintained. There is also a two-bedroom cottage, again in very good condition. There are a large number of buildings in the courtyard beside the main house.
The kitchen is large and bright.
The land totals 93.5ac in one block and is mostly in tillage with some permanent pasture. The land is sloping but free draining. The farm has internal roads and pathways. Fields are edged by mature hedges with plenty of trees.
