Waterloo House, a 200-year-old property in Mallow, Co Cork with equestrian facilities and a Neo Gothic gate lodge, has hit the market for €2,000,000.
The main property is a six-bed Georgian country home with 619 square metres of living space dating back to circa 1815.
The grounds extend to about 52 acres and include the 68 square metre gate lodge with its castellated turret, as well as a self-contained apartment measuring about 51 square metres.
The lodge has an open-plan living/kitchen/dining room, shower room, and two overhead rooms accessed via a spiral staircase.
In Waterloo House, the solid wood door opens to reveal a reception area with 11'2'' high ceilings and original plasterwork and cornicing.
The ground floor offers a drawing room with an open fireplace, a dining room that looks onto the grounds and down the driveway, a billiards room with a bar room adjoining, a TV room, a kitchen/breakfast room that looks onto the walled garden, a large laundry room, and a guest lavatory.
Upstairs, there are six bedrooms, a bathroom, and two shower rooms, while the basement offers a gym, a wine cellar, a living room, a service room, and a WC. This area can be independently accessed allowing for this level to potentially be self-contained.
Waterloo House has a choice of gardens and grounds. The main garden is located just off the kitchen/breakfast room and accessed via the adjoining TV room.
This garden is bounded by original stone walls and mature planting, and there is a water feature, a large lawn and a recently rebuilt greenhouse.
An enclosed deck offers an outdoor dining area that overlooks the garden, which is home to a variety of tree life such as fig, peach, bramley, cherry and apricot. A second walled garden is home to apple trees (eaters and cookers) estimated to be around 100 years old.
In the first stable yard, there is a series of large stables, a tack room, and a self-contained one-bedroom apartment.
Further into the yard, there is a second block of horse stables and an enclosed arena built in the 1990s. This large indoor arena also provides a collection of stables.
A second vehicular entrance can be found at the rear of the property and benefits from an electric gate.
The property has benefited from the installation of 20 solar panels to generate hot water, attic insulation, installation of an EV charging point, re-roofing works of the main house and gate lodge and 5G broadband, as well as the construction of the additional stables and indoor arena which can be separately accessed from a rear entrance.
