One of Ireland’s few surviving intact country estates is set to go under the hammer next month. Guided at €12m, Newbury Hall Demesne is a 453ac mixed-enterprise holding dating back to the 1760s.

Situated near Carbury, Co Kildare, the farm includes a six-bedroom Palladian house, several ancillary buildings, equestrian amenities, and a farmyard with related infrastructure.

Purchased by the current owner, a successful large-scale beef farmer, in 2010, the main house has undergone significant restoration work by specialist contractors under the guidance of a conservation architect. Many of the original decorative features remain intact, including cornicing, ceiling roses and architrave.

The West Pavilion presents an opportunity to create further residential accommodation. In need of complete refurbishment, it currently comprises four reception rooms and three bedrooms.

The estate’s East Pavilion is made up of a stone-built yard with a clock tower and pigeon loft. Equestrian facilities include eight stables, several coach houses, and a steward’s residence.

Adjacent to this is the farmyard, containing multiple hay barns and some buildings suitable for livestock housing. This area benefits from a fenced concreted avenue that leads directly to the Enfield Road, Co Kildare.

Laid out in large divisions, the lands, which are free-draining overlying limestone, benefit from dual road frontage along the Enfield Road and the Carbury Road. 100ac is currently used for productive cereal crops, with the remaining fields in permanent pasture.

The lands extend to 453ac.

Listed with Raymond Potter auctioneers, Newbury Hall Demesne will be auctioned on 9 July 2026 at The Johnstown House Hotel, Enfield, Co. Meath. Online bidding will also be available.
