| DESCRIPTION
Unique period property built in the mid 1700 and sympathetically redesigned in 1804 by the renowned architect Francis Johnston. Formerly the family home of the famous Irish playwright J.M. Synge the property enjoys an idyllic location with marvellous sea and mountain views. The current owners have recently redecorated with great care taken to retain the captivating ambience present in the property. Many period features have been retained to include ornate plaster ceilings, pitch pine and flagstone floors, gothic windows to name but a few. The splendid location has much to offer, equestrian facilities nearby, an array of country pursuits including local hunts, fishing, Druids Glen championship golf course is only minutes away. Owners of Glanmore Castle benefit from private access to the 2000 acres of forestry that back on to the property. Located just 2 miles from the picturesque village of Ashford and only 30 minutes to Dublin.
OUTSIDE
Located in the very heart of the beautiful Garden of Ireland this distinctive Castle nestles within Devils Glen Equestrian Village. The entrance to the Castle is through the gates of Devils Glen and up a sweeping drive where you come upon your first sight of the imposing Castle in all its splendour. The Castle itself has its own very clear boundaries. Entered through impressive gates, the driveway leads you to the entrance of the Castle with grassy woodland to either side. The property has a unique elevated position and allows it to take advantage of the magnificent countryside views. The property is adjacent to the Vartry River and one thousand acres of forestry, a delight for the walking/horse riding enthusiast.
