Beech Park House - Background and History

The main residence was originally an 18th century two-storey farmhouse, forming part of the extensive Luttrellstown Estate, with a wonderful set of reception rooms added in 1820. The property was then purchased by the renowned Shackleton family in 1919. The main residence, a fine example of a regency-style home has been conserved, restored and also renovated to create a wonderful family home set among idyllic parkland yet close to Dublin city and surrounds. The property is listed and adjoins the renowned Shackleton Gardens.The Shackleton family were associated with the Liffey valley as flour millers since the 1850's, they were relatives of famous explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton, with renowned plantsman David Shackleton once calling Beech Park House home.

The entrance hall is flooded with natural light and showcases what is to come throughout the rest of the home including extremely spacious proportions, beautiful floor to ceiling sash windows, stunning feature fireplaces and breathtaking views. The house is set out over two expansive floors and boasts a number of interconnected reception rooms to both entertain and relax in, a library, two kitchens, an array of ensuite bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed for comfort and privacy and three self-contained apartment spaces.
