€3million price tag placed on historic Mayo home
Newport House is a 19 bed property considered a masterpiece of Georgian elegance.
A 240-year old stately home in West Mayo has gone on sale for €3,000,000.
Newport House, which has operated as luxury accommodation and a fine dining venue, is a 19 bed property considered as a masterpiece of Georgian elegance.
Constructed around 1785, estate agents Sherry Fitzgerald say the mansion, with its seven bay design, “exudes timeless charm and commands attention with its private grounds on the edge of Newport town.”
With a floor area of some 1062m², Newport House is surrounded by rolling lawns and majestic, mature trees creating a serene and picturesque setting. It holds exclusive fly-fishing rights to the internationally acclaimed Black Oak river, spanning eight miles along both banks, as well as to the pristine Lough Beltra West, a breathtaking lake which stretches three miles by one mile.
Among its most famous guests was Prince Albert of Monaco, son of actress Grace Kelly whose ancestors hailed from Newport.
