THIS MODERN detached four-bed bungalow on 2.3 acres at Dunsany has recently had €200,000 knocked off its original price tag and will have enormous appeal for buyers seeking a home with a rather special garden.

The owner is the head groundskeeper of one of Meath's top studs, and the property itself is in an area associated with all things equestrian – riding clubs, racecourses (Navan and Fairyhouse), and the historic Meath, Ward and Tara hunt.

Built 10 years ago, the 156sq m (1,679sq ft) house has a large, central entrance hall; sitting room with bay window; and farmhouse style kitchen with arch opening through to the den/family room. Four bedrooms, (master en-suite), and the main bathroom complete the accommodation.

French doors open from the den into the mature gardens which include a summer patio, outdoor dining room, vegetable plot, putting green, and a number of dog kennels. The river which gives the property its name winds its way between the formal gardens and the lands, and is crossed by a railed footbridge.
