Bellevue House and Estate sits above the eastern shore of scenic Lough Derg, with the lake stretching out below it while fields and woodland run back in the opposite direction.
The property extends to 200ac, with a further 50ac available, and has come to the market with Sherry FitzGerald Country Homes, Farms and Estates with a guide price of €3.6m, or approximately €18,000/ac. With more than 2km of frontage onto the lake, it reads more like a private estate than a typical residential farm.
Dating from around 1750, the house was built at a time when the land was held by the Sadlier family, part of a wider estate in north Tipperary.
Set back from the shoreline with trees between the house and the water, it is a straightforward Georgian building, but with some distinctive details, including a cut stone limestone facade on the main elevation. It runs to over 900 sq m and was restored by the current owner in the late 1990s and early 2000s.That work has left it in good order without taking away from its age. Rooms are generous, with light coming through from both sides, and there is a sense throughout that the house has settled rather than been recently finished.
Bellevue House and Estate Coolbaun, Nenagh, Co Tipperary.
Behind the house is where the place really begins to open up. The yard is not laid out as a single block but instead unfolds in sections. Closest to the house is a working courtyard with sheds and stores, before a stone arch leads through to the main stable yard.
From there, buildings run in different directions, including coach houses, older stone sheds and what is believed to have once been a bull pen. Some have been brought back into use, others left closer to their original form. A converted byre now acts as a large open space, with access out to a walled garden where fruit trees and lawns sit behind sheltered walls. It feels like a yard that has changed gradually rather than being designed all at once.
From here, the land spreads out in a mix of grazing ground, woodland and forestry.
Bellevue House and Estate Coolbaun, Nenagh, Co Tipperary.
Around 120ac is in pasture and currently let on conacre, with the remainder in mature trees and hardwood planting. Moving down through the fields, the lake begins to take over the outlook. Along the shoreline, there is a traditional stone boathouse and a small harbour capable of taking larger boats.
Coolbaun village is a short drive away, with Nenagh around 19km for services and transport links. It is 86km to Shannon Airport. Taken together, the house, yard and land feel connected, shaped over time rather than assembled in one go.
