Brookville House, Highfield, Carbury, Co Kildare has just arrived on the market. Nestled between Highfield golf course on one side and Edenderry golf course on the other, Brookville stands on 177 acres of grazing and tillage ground and has been home to a beef herd for the past seven years. I took the opportunity to view the farm last week, which is close to the Offaly/Kildare border.

The present owner of Brookville House acquired the property back in 2009 and went about undertaking a major restoration project. Today the property is presented for sale with a beautifully restored five-bedroom Georgian residence, a fabulous courtyard, a walled garden and a farmyard. Characterised by beautiful oak, ash and horse chestnut trees, Brookville offers the complete package in terms of land, residence and courtyard and is scheduled to go under the hammer in one lot on 22 June in the Glenroyal Hotel, Maynooth at 3pm. Given the calibre of the house and courtyard coupled with the presentation and layout of the land, it is a ready-to-go operation for any discerning buyer and comes to the market with a guide price in the region of €1.8 million.
