We’ve probably all dreamt about being the king or queen of our own castle at one stage or another, but now you can fulfil that ambition in the stunning Moyvannan Castle.

Located in Moyvannan in Co Roscommon, this charming countryside home dates back to the 16th Century and enjoys a secluded location nearby to Hudson Bay.

The castle is on sale for €950,000.

Set on 6.9 acres, the castle has been lovingly restored and renovated in recent years to now offer a superb residence that boasts 550sqm of living space.

The etstae sits on a stunning tree-lined drive.

A large, handcrafted solid timber door welcomes you into a spacious entrance hall with hardwood flooring, double-glazed Gothic style windows, an alarm system and ading access to the drawing room and the elevator lift or spiral staircase to the tower bedrooms.

The drawing room is equipped with hardwood flooring, timber wooden beams, an open fireplace with a white marble surround, radiators, a wet bar and access to the dining room and the two master bedroom suites.

The furniture and design in the Castle have been carefully selected to fit the historic theme.

The kitchen underwent an extensive renovation in 2009, which was carried out to a very high standard and included tiled flooring, marble countertops, dual-aspect windows, custom-fitted shelving, a kitchen island with a hardwood countertop and standard white goods (cookers, fridges, freezers, washing machine, etc).

The kitchen interconnects with the hallway, which provides access to a utility room, side exit and the downstairs WC.

A fine carved timber staircase in the drawing room leads upstairs to two large principal bedroom suites. These two are the largest bedrooms in the Castle, with the master bedroom suite having a walk-in wardrobe and bathroom with triple-aspect views across the garden.

The second bedroom is a very generous size and has an ensuite shower room. Three further bedroom suites positioned within the upper floors of the castle tower can be accessed from both an elevator lift and the original spiral staircase.

The Castle sits within an expansive 6.9-acres of private grounds that offer a "serene and picturesque environment".

Within this impeccably maintained garden, visitors and residents can enjoy a network of walking trails that meander through the lush landscape, providing ample opportunities for leisurely strolls and moments of quiet reflection. A charming pond further enhances the tranquil atmosphere, serving as a peaceful focal point amidst the verdant surroundings.

Beyond the 6.9-acre perimeter, the Castle is bordered by pastoral agricultural fields. These fields not only contribute to the scenic beauty of the area but also ensure a high degree of privacy and seclusion for Moyvannan Castle, creating a sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of modern life.

For added security, the Castle is equipped with surveillance cameras strategically placed at the entrance and exits.
