Co Louth
Built in the 1950s, and revamped in 2000, this home stands on three acres of lawns and woodlands
Agent: Shane Black, Drogheda
A KEEN golfer looking for a place in the country could be tempted by Green Acres, a four-bedroom house 1km from County Louth Golf Club – better know as Baltray. A near neighbour is golfer Des Smyth.
Built originally in the 1950s, it was completely revamped in 2000 by its current owners. It is now for sale through Drogheda agent Shane Black for €1.4 million – although the agent is open to offers.
Green Acres stands on three acres, half of them landscaped lawns, the other half woodland. The owners went for luxury in the revamp and included features such as the Bangor-slate roof, teak doors, Axminster carpets, maple floors, a Jacuzzi, sauna and Aga in the kitchen. There’s also a photographic studio with oak floors which could become a granny flat.
Accommodation in the 325sq m (3,500sq ft) house includes a living room, sitting room/dining room, kitchen/breakfast room and a conservatory at the side of the house. The owners – who have created their own website for the property, uniquehomebaltray.com, say the property is 45 minutes from Dublin airport. Baltray is 7km from Drogheda.
