Downstairs delights
The main rooms in the property cleverly make the most of the privacy and natural light with downstairs encompassing a drawing room, formal dining room, living room, family room, kitchen with casual dining area, a large laundry room, a study and WC.
A vestibule with original hardwood front door leads to the entrance hall- a space wonderfully finished off with part panelled walls, corniced ceiling and wood strip flooring. From here, a modern cloakroom with WC can be found. This room features a wash hand basin and a range of built in units for hanging and storing outdoor clothes.
With its ornate cornicing, marble fire place and dual windows- the period beauty of Oranmore is encapsulated in the dining room.

In the living room, a large bay showcases stunning views over Belfast Lough and the surrounding gardens. Again, there is delightful cornicing, a ceiling rose and an open fire.
The study is the perfect place to take in those superb views and this room also has a glazed door leading into the garden.
Off the study is a cosy snug which contrasts with the period aesthetic of the other reception rooms. A delightful, modern addition to the home, this room houses a wall of glass and French doors opening to the gardens. The snug showcases a magnificent stove and offers access to a butler’s pantry.
