Barrack House, Rathdangan Village, Baltinglass, Co. Wicklow, W91D6Y7

REA MURPHY is delighted to bring this charming and well-loved residential property to the open market. Barrack House has a history spanning from the years of Michael Dwyer, an Irish rebel of 1798, to the current day. A viewing of this property will bring to mind it’s history as you move from room to room, and the caring restoration applied by the current Owners will be immediately evident. A most interesting property located in a most historical part of the Wicklow Hills awaits your viewing. BARRACK HOUSE is a former RIC barracks which has been converted to residential use some 100 years ago with the arrival of the Irish Free State, and now incorporates 3 Bedrooms, Living space and Guest accommodation. The current Owners purchased adjoining lands and the property now stands on 1/2 an acre of gardens and is a genuine haven with just the right balance of privacy and tranquillity. Set at the foot of Carrig Mountain in the beautiful village of Rathdangan, Barrack House is close to the Glen of Imaal, the mecca for walking enthusiasts, and indeed the birth-place of the said Michael Dwyer. The greater Rathdangan location is a sanctuary on the edge of our Capital City - low density population, no regular public transport, no motorway have all allowed the community to develop into a sought-after location in which to live. Well-known for its inspiration for authors, poets and artists alike, the West Wicklow community in which Barrack House is set, offers a lifestyle not available in the other community locations throughout Leinster. BARRACK HOUSE itself has been a base of retreat for the current Owners since 2005 and it is with a reluctant YES that the property is now available for a new Owner. The accommodation is both practical and cosy – despite the G energy rating the Owners are confident about the effectiveness of the electricity heating and of the benefit of the insulation they have installed. Both Bedrooms have En Suites with showers. The Kitchen living area is the everyday room with the solid fuel stove as your cosy companion. For evening time, the Livingroom upstairs is a relaxing space. The “connecting lobby” is multi-purpose, not least for engaging with the occasional caller but mainly to link the Residence to the Guest Accommodation. The space has a secure workshop, and one can almost hear the step of the horses from bygone days. Within the Guest accommodation, the emphasis is on that rugged atmosphere from raw natural stone and the vaulted ceilings. Heated with the solid fuel stove centre piece, the accommodation has its own linear kitchen and its own Bathroom with Bath, Shower and Toilet. A beautiful residential, incarnation from the old stables. All works were completed by local tradesmen to an excellent standard, and the roof insulation is to be reported to be like a stuffed pig! Barrack House offers the discerning purchaser a rare opportunity. Ideally suited to holistic and wellness initiatives. Modestly priced to secure a certain sale, the property is available for viewings by appointment only. VIEWING APPPOINTMENTS AVAILABLE FROM WEDNESDAY THE 9TH OF SEPTEMBER 2026.
