CO SLIGO: €1.65M -Seafield House, on nine acres is Easky, Co Sligo, is the quintessential Georgian country home. While it looks like the Father Tedset from the outside, within it is a home of grand proportions with penty of original features, retained during a recent refurbishment

The house, which is for sale at €1.65 million through joint agents Colliers Jackson-Stops and Sherry FitzGerald Draper is in a beautiful setting overlooking the sea and it will gradually become even more private than it is already as the 2,000 indigenous deciduous trees which were planted in 2005, grow taller.

Original features include dark stained pine floors which run right from the large hallway, and through the ground and upper floors (although there is a polished limestone floor in the kitchen, cloakroom and utility on the ground floor).

The ground floor has an interconnecting sittingroom and diningroom, each with a marble fireplace and decorative plasterwork on walls and ceilings. The separate drawingroom also has two fireplaces and ornate plaster.

Upstairs, the rooms all have dark pine floors (with en suites in limestone). A large oval room has sea and mountain views, and could be used as a bedroom or sittingroom. The five other bedrooms all have en suites and there is also an office on this floor. Outbuildings include a derelict cottage. The large waves on the local beach attract in surfers, while fishing and golf are a drive away.
