`Frenchlawn House` On C. 85.30 Acres, Ballintober, Co. Roscommon.


Rare opportunity to acquire a country residence with significant historical interest to the late Daniel O`Connell who regularly stayed at `Frenchlawn House`, previously owned by his daughter Elizabeth (1810-1893) who married Nicholas Joseph Ffrench in 1831.
