PROPERTY: 17th-century Tipperary estate hits the market for the first time in 100 years

Barne House is an impressive period property occupying a commanding and elevated position amongst formal gardens, a feature lake, and surrounding parkland.

In eleven bays, the three-storey mansion house, with a dormer attic storey, sits below a French Château-style roof which is believed to have been a late addition to the building circa 1870 and incorporates a U-shaped design in its layout.

The Emerald Isle property is near Clonmel, County Tipperary, roughly an hour drive from the cities of both Cork and Limerick, and about twice that to Dublin.

The chateau-style house, which dates to the 17th century, is surrounded by formal gardens and parkland, including a trout lake and a nature reserve.
