NOT only are you getting a handsome home and history with Ardagh, a period house on grounds in west Waterford’s Lismore heritage town, you are also getting architectural distinction and a host of original, retained detailing, plus space galore.

Yet, for all that town proximity, once inside the gate on its 1.47 acre site with old barns and yard Ardagh feels more country, more farmyard-like, which is a bit disconcerting as the house is quite a remove in quality and design terms from almost any other style of town-edge farm dwellings.

The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage dates it to 1875, but it may be older, says joint selling agent David Reynolds of Sherry FitzGerald Reynolds, acting with Lismore agent Michael O’Leary and they guide the substantial, robust and quite gracious home at €675,000.

Elsewhere there are several stained glass windows to admire, and the National Inventory of Architectural heritage judges that Ardagh “remains an important component of the townscape of Lismore, contributing significantly to the character of the locality”.
