Errew House, Castlehill, Ballina, Co.Mayo, F26WK27
Errew House is a magnificent Victorian Gothic mansion perched on the Errew Peninsula just 5 km from Crossmolina, Co. Mayo. It was designed in the 1870s by James Franklin Fuller, the renowned architect behind the design of numerous other iconic Irish landmarks including Kylemore Abbey and Mount Falcon. This six bay, three storey building with dormer attic and corner tower commands sweeping views over Lough Conn and the majestic Nephin Mountain.
Set on a generous site of circa 2.5 acres, with an additional 22 acres of land, this distinguished property has retained its integrity and character with original features including splayed sash windows, intricate ceiling and wall mouldings, a stunning stained-glass fanlight above the entrance door, and the striking cut limestone and granite façade all exemplifying the grandeur of the Victorian era.
During its most recent restoration, this exquisite property was thoughtfully transformed to comprise 14 self-contained apartments. Additionally, planning permission has been granted under planning reference P21/1322 for the construction of a concrete slipway, jetty and boat house on the shore of Lough Conn, facilitating the possibility of lakeside development for either personal use or a tourism-related venture.
Errew House enjoys an enviable setting, with the unspoilt natural beauty of North Mayo forming its backdrop. It is an easily accessible area with all amenities and services within easy reach in Crossmolina town 7km away, and Ballina 18km away providing a range of shops, schools, restaurants, bars, and leisure facilities. Ireland West Airport Knock can be reached in just 45 minutes, providing fast and convenient access to and from the region.
Steeped in history and character, and having served a variety of purposes over the years, this unique property now awaits the beginning of its next exciting chapter!
