A distinguished Georgian estate of architectural significance, Emsworth occupies a remarkable position just twelve kilometres from Dublin City Centre. Extending to about seventeen acres, the estate offers complete privacy and security in a unique setting close to Dublin Airport.

Originally designed by renowned architect James Gandon and completed in 1794, this elegant villa—one of Gandon’s only known residential commissions—has been comprehensively renovated to an exceptional standard, achieving a seamless blend of period grandeur and modern living.

Emsworth also contains a tunnel believed to have been conceived by Gandon himself which provides a discreet underground connection to the neighbouring Abbeyville Estate. Now blocked at both ends, the tunnel remains a rare and historically significant feature that adds an intriguing layer to the property’s rich heritage.

A recent extension designed by Henry J Lyons, one of Ireland’s leading architectural practices introduces light-filled spaces that connect the main house to the Guest House. These have been exquisitely designed and finished, enhancing the property’s historic character while embracing contemporary style and comfort.

Set on about seventeen acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, Emsworth enjoys a private yet accessible setting approached via electric gates and a sweeping tree-lined gravel driveway.

The mature grounds surrounding the house are a key feature offering both privacy and a scenic rural backdrop while also providing a wealth of amenities. These include formal gardens, two kilometres of woodland walks, an ornamental lake with a decked seating area, a floodlit paddle court/sports pitch as well as an outdoor heated swimming pool and jacuzzi with adjoining BBQ areas.

Additionally, the estate offers alternative accommodation options including a magnificent two-bedroom Guest House recently renovated to the same high standards as the main residence.

Emsworth presents a unique opportunity to acquire an exceptional combination of high-quality assets in a truly unrivalled setting all within a highly accessible central location.
