The home has been thoughtfully designed to combine the elegance of a period-style property with the highest standards of modern construction. Approached via electric cast-iron gates and a sweeping driveway, the residence enjoys a wonderfully private elevated setting. It boasts gracious reception rooms, luxurious bedroom suites and superb attention to detail throughout. A charming Tea House, self-contained apartment and extensive stable block further enhance the appeal and versatility of this remarkable home.

The front door opens into a magnificent double height reception hall, flooded with natural light and finished to the highest standards. A beautiful stone fireplace forms a focal point, while exceptional joinery, high skirting boards, recessed lighting and a striking chandelier create an atmosphere of understated grandeur. This versatile space serves both as an entrance hall and a gracious dining area for large gatherings. 

To the right lies the formal drawing room, an elegant and refined space with high ceilings, indirect lighting and French doors opening onto the patio and gardens. A marble fireplace adds a touch of sophistication, making this an ideal room for entertaining guests. Beyond, the living room offers a more relaxed atmosphere, again benefitting from French doors to the outside and providing a perfect retreat for evening relaxation.

At the heart of the home is the beautifully appointed kitchen, fitted with bespoke cabinetry, granite worktops and a central breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include a fridge and a striking black four oven Aga with induction hood. French doors open to the garden.

Adjacent are a utility room, plant room, wine cellar and guest W.C, ensuring every practical need is catered for. The staircase hall, currently used as a home office, provides further flexibility and could serve as an alternative reception area. This section also includes a cloakroom and additional guest W.C. The ground floor is future-proofed by a luxurious bedroom suite overlooking the front gardens, complete with generous proportions and a large ensuite bathroom.

The principal bedroom is a private sanctuary with vaulted ceilings and stunning views across the estate. It features an expansive ensuite with his-and-hers basins, bath, shower and direct access to a dressing room with extensive built-in wardrobes and a laundry chute.

Three further bedroom suites complete the first floor, each enjoying unique views over the gardens and paddocks. All include ensuite bathrooms, walk-in wardrobes and access to roof-eaves storage, ensuring comfort and privacy for family and guests alike.

A hedge-lined pathway leads gently through the grounds to the enchanting Tea House, a tranquil retreat designed for year-round entertaining. With its own kitchen facilities and underfloor heating, this delightful building offers a peaceful haven with magnificent views across the gardens. Whether for summer gatherings or cosy winter evenings, it provides a charming extension to the main residence.

The grounds are a true highlight of Blackhall House, offering a rare combination of formal landscaping and practical equestrian amenities. To the front, specimen shrubs, roses and manicured beech and laurel hedging create a gracious setting, while mature trees frame sweeping lawns ideal for leisurely strolls. Equestrian enthusiasts are exceptionally well catered for with a large floodlit sand arena and three expansive stud-railed paddocks. A dung pit is conveniently located adjacent to the stable block. The entire estate has been carefully planned to provide both beauty and functionality, creating a wonderful rural sanctuary within easy reach of modern conveniences.

Externally, the estate is equally as impressive. Blackhall House features outstanding equestrian facilities including a floodlit sand arena, three stud-railed paddocks and meticulously landscaped grounds. Ideally positioned close to the coastal village of Termonfeckin and within easy reach of Drogheda, the M1 motorway, Dublin and Belfast, the home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a truly distinguished property that perfectly balances tranquil country living with excellent connectivity.
