Q: Ballina House, Co. Mayo

Ballina House is situated at the south end of the former Belleek Abbey demesne, on the west bank of the river Moy, Ballina, Co. Mayo. It comprises a nineteenth century detached residence and out-buildings on its own grounds, which are enclosed by stone walls. Constructed circa 1830s, this limestone and brick built rendered house consists of a three bay, two-storey over basement residence with central projecting entrance bay. The ground and first floor were in use, and lived in. The basement however was in a poor state of repair, and hadn’t been used since the ‘60’s. Works to the house included cleaning the façade, repairing the roof, damp-proofing and upgrading the basement into a gym, office, playroom and laundry. The windows were all reconditioned and the ground and first floor rooms had a complete renovation. The house is now home to a young family, who love the extensive grounds and tennis courts on site.
