Property Description

Newpark House is an elegant country residence set within a picturesque parkland, offering unparalleled views of Lough Ree and the River Shannon. Originally a 25-bedroom hotel and wedding venue, this historic property has been extensively renovated by its current owners but requires finishing touches, providing an excellent opportunity for the prospective purchaser. Many original features have been preserved, and the building has been recently rewired with significant preparatory work completed.

The internal highlight of this property is the former Cellar Bar which is as one might expect located in the cellar and adorned with the highest level of brick work and craftsmanship you are likely to see. Said former bar opens onto one of the two courtyards set off either end of the property and would provide a fantastic wedding area.

Located near Kiltoom, Newpark House has a rich history dating back to 1717 when it was first recorded as the home of John Lyster. In the early 19th century, it was inhabited by John Hodson and later by Elliot Armstrong, both related to the Lyster family by marriage. The last Lyster resident, Elizabeth, married Ralph Smythe of Barbavilla near Mullingar, and the estate passed to their son, Henry Matthew Smyth JP. After a fire in 1860, Marcus Anthony Levinge restored the house and maintained ownership until 1939 when the Land Commission sold the land. In 1940, the house was sold, and in 1970, Paddy Kenny purchased and converted it into a hotel, preserving it from potential demolition.

This detached, three-bay, three-storey country house, features a front porch and rear addition. It boasts rendered chimney stacks and stands over a basement, exemplifying the charm and elegance of a historic residence.
