Originally commissioned by Lord Bagenal in 1790 as the Steward’s residence, Rathduff House was conceived as a refined two-storey, three-bay home, complete with half-hipped roof and an elegant pointed granite doorcase. A later three-bay extension enhances the façade, while an additional wing set at right angles creates a home of notable scale, balance and architectural presence.

Meticulously renovated and presented in true turnkey condition, the residence extends to approximately 320 sq. m of beautifully appointed accommodation over two floors. Every element has been carefully considered to marry the comforts of modern living with the timeless beauty of its original features.

A gracious reception hall, centred around a fine period staircase — one of two serving the upper floor — sets the tone. The dining room, with open fireplace and herringbone walnut flooring, is particularly impressive, offering a refined yet inviting space for entertaining.

Upstairs, four generous bedrooms and two substantial bathrooms are arranged around a light-filled, interconnecting landing, creating a natural flow and an atmosphere of calm throughout.

The stunning 2.7-acre grounds are a defining feature, offering a rare balance of structured gardens and more natural, informal spaces, including a thoughtfully planted and maturing woodland of mixed species. The setting ensures privacy, tranquillity and clear scope for further enhancement.

Traditional garage with direct access from the main road. Multiple outbuildings provide generous storage and future conversion potential.

Despite its peaceful setting, Rathduff House is highly accessible — just 2.5 km from Bagenalstown with rail and bus links, 4 km from Leighlinbridge, and 7 km from Junction 6 of the M9 motorway.
