Ashfield House, Cusack Road, Ennis, Co. Clare

Ashfield House is an imposing detached three bay two storey home, built in circa 1790, set on a truly enchanting mature tree lined site extending to approx. 1.2 acres. The ornate cast iron entrance gates and ashlar lime stone piers dominate the winding, treelined, sweeping drive that leads to the central and gated courtyard.

Conveniently situated with its main entrance at the Maid of Erin roundabout, immediately opposite the river Fergus river walk, immediately adjacent to the bishops estate and centred in the heart of the historical town of Ennis. Shannon International Airport is just a 20 minute drive and for those commuting to Shannon Limerick and Galway the M18 inner relief road, offering ease of accessibility is just 500m from the gated entrance.

The south and east boundary walls, approx. 6 feet in height and the mature tree remaining site boundary offers a great sense of privacy and feeling of total seclusion which is normally reserved for the more substantial country estate.
The gated courtyard once facilitated stables, staff accommodation and general storage still feature the exposed limestone walls and traditional tiling.

The main accommodation to Ashfield House is both grand and very nicely laid out. extending over three floors the ground floor features three main reception rooms all of which have solid fuel open fireplaces, coving and various aspect windows, kitchen, private dining, bathroom and scullery with the split landing staircase leading to the first and second floors with a perfectly positioned arched window pumping natural light into the entrance hallway and landing spaces.
Off the first landing are two bedrooms, bathroom and separate wc with a further three bedrooms and reading room with access onto the balcony off the second level landing. To the second floor are a further two rooms.
