Stunning period house in Cornafean for auction, The Anglo-Celt, 29 May 2008

This stunning 19th century built period house and gate lodge is situated on about 135 acres just one mile from Cornafean. In need of refurbishment, if you're on the lookout for a domestic project, Corr House could be the opportunity of a lifetime. Corr House is situated in a tranquil elevated parkland setting with panoramic views across the surrounding countryside, the house is approached off a quiet country road via a long winding avenue that meanders through mature woodland and parkland. The mature gardens are well stocked with rhododendron, lilac and hydrangea while a variety of trees including monkey puzzle, yew, beech and oak protect the house and give the gardens shelter. There are approximately 125 acres of good grazing land all in permanent pasture and in large easy to manage division protected by tall trees and high hedgerows that provide excellent shelter for livestock. The grounds are enhanced by mature woodland providing a lovely setting for rides and walks. The property also benefits from a second entrance (not currently in use), which once led directly to the yard at the rear of the main house.
With accommodation measuring about 2,700 square feet, Corr House is roomy, to say the least. Built in the latter part of the 19th century the house and gate lodge need extensive upgrading. The house is completely private and both the reception rooms are well proportioned with tall windows that maximise the intake of light with fine views.
