An imposing, three bay two storey residence dated 1877. Presented in excellent order this late nineteenth-century dwelling displays many of the architectural innovations and details of the Victorian architect. The use of brick, in various colours, to provide pleasant colour contrasts, various forms of window and door heads, and decoratively presented bargeboards, and the varied roof forms, all create visual interest.
An elegant entrance hall greets you, opening to the living-room and drawing room at the front of the house. Designed in elegant proportions, the graceful reception rooms exude a sense of regality complimented by beautiful sash windows accommodating maximum light in and access to the wonderful views.
Beyond these, the hall leads to a truly classic dining room. A kitchen /breakfast room leads off this, with a further utility space beside. Complimented by a Rayburn stove (oil fired), the kitchen has plenty of space for family and informal suppers.
Upstairs the four bedrooms, all of which are doubles, the wc and bathroom. Victorian-esque in characteristic. Each room enjoys a unique view of the mature grounds encompassing the house.
The Beeches is an exceptionally well-located property on the edge of Monaghan town.
The setting provides appropriate context for the residence, surrounded by mature trees with a winding hard surfaced avenue leading from entrance gateway in snecked squared rubble stone garden wall with wrought-iron double-leaf gate set to square-plan dressed limestone piers having pyramidal stone caps.
Monaghan Town is a pictuesque surrounded by Drumlin hinterland; made famous by the poet Patrick Kavanagh. Monaghan Town has a vibrant night life and is renowned for its restaurants. Local industries include timber-frame manufacturing, forklift development and an IDA site. Monaghan Town is an ideal base with lots of local attractions, and just a short drive from Northern Ireland.
