Oatlands House<\/p>\n
Where History, Landscape and Lifestyle Become One<\/p>\n
Some properties offer space. Others offer history. A rare few offer a sense of place so complete that they feel timeless.
\nOatlands House is one of those rare homes.
\nSet within approximately 7.06 acres of rolling countryside, this remarkable historic residence occupies a private and enchanting setting where mature lands descend gently towards a river and natural waterfall. Here, the sound of flowing water, open skies and uninterrupted views combine to create a home defined by peace, beauty and possibility.<\/p>\n
Located on the edge of the welcoming village of Bonniconlon and only minutes from the vibrant market town of Ballina , Oatlands offers the rare balance of rural seclusion and everyday convenience. The celebrated Wild Atlantic Way lies within easy reach, connecting the property to some of Ireland\u2019s most spectacular coastline and outdoor experiences.<\/p>\n
From its elevated position, panoramic views stretch across the sweeping landscape of the Ox Mountains and towards the unmistakable silhouette of Nephin Mountain \u2014 a horizon that transforms constantly with changing light and season.<\/p>\n
A Story Spanning Centuries
\nThe origins of Oatlands House date to circa 1770, while the present residence was constructed in the early 1830s on a new site. Over generations it has quietly witnessed Ireland\u2019s changing history.
\nDuring the Irish Civil War the house was requisitioned by the Free State Army \u2014 a chapter still echoed today in the restored Connemara marble fireplace, once damaged during that turbulent period and now beautifully reinstated as the centre piece of the elegant drawing room.
\nIn the 1940s, Oatlands was listed by the Irish Tourist Association as a guesthouse and welcomed visitors for more than thirty years who came seeking the peace and restorative beauty of the Mayo countryside.
\nToday, it stands renewed \u2014 a home shaped by stewardship and care.
\nRestored With Respect, Designed For Living
\nSince 2018, extensive refurbishment has been undertaken to preserve the house\u2019s architectural integrity while introducing the comfort and efficiency required for modern family life.<\/p>\n
Significant upgrades completed in 2012 included a new roof, insulated walls, upgraded windows, complete rewiring and installation of a modern heating system. Traditional stone outbuildings have also been renovated and restored, enhancing both functionality and character.<\/p>\n
The result is a home that feels both historic and effortlessly liveable.
\nAccommodation Designed For Flexibility
\nArranged across three floors, the accommodation offers exceptional adaptability.
\nLower Ground Floor
\nA fully self-contained living space comprising an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, two spacious double bedrooms and a large family bathroom \u2014 ideal for extended family, guest accommodation or income potential.<\/p>\n
Ground Floor

Above, a mezzanine level offers a bright family den or teenage retreat.<\/p>\n
First Floor
\nThree generous double bedrooms include a master suite with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. A home office or additional bedroom together with a guest cloakroom completes the upper accommodation.<\/p>\n
Grounds That Define the Property
\nThe landscape surrounding Oatlands House is exceptional.
\nQuality farmland extends from the residence towards a river and enchanting waterfall beside the atmospheric ruins of a former coach house and mill \u2014 a rare and evocative reminder of the estate\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

A Property Unlike Any Other
\nOatlands House offers privacy without isolation, history without compromise and beauty in every direction. Whether imagined as a distinguished family residence, boutique hospitality venture, creative retreat or self-sufficient estate, it presents an opportunity seldom available.
\nIf walls could speak, Oatlands House would tell stories spanning centuries \u2014 of guests and gatherings, resilience and renewal.
