A Georgian Gem in the Heart of Donegal…

Ballyarr House is a hidden treasure an elegant Georgian country house nestled on an elevated site with sweeping views of its mature grounds and the rolling Donegal countryside. Though discreetly secluded, it lies just six miles from Letterkenny, the county’s commercial and cultural hub. Painstakingly restored to reflect its 18th-century origins, Ballyarr House combines historic charm with an enviable location.

A Storied Past

Built around 1780, Ballyarr House holds a significant place in Ireland’s historical and cultural landscape. In its listing by the Ireland’s National Inventory of Architectural Heritage, it states that the house ‘is distinguished by the triple gable-fronted façade’, which makes it unique among Georgian buildings. Its history is also very special. In 1842, the house was acquired and remodelled by Lord George Hill, the fifth son of the second Marquis of Downshire. As owner of vast tracts of land in Gweedore, his legacy as an “improving” landlord remains a matter of debate. Although responsible for developing the area, including the building of Bunbeg harbour and the Gweedore hotel that is now An Chuirt, his ‘reforms’ led to clashes with his tenants. His portrait can be seen in the mural that graces Ballyarr’s main hall.

During Hill’s tenure, the house hosted notable visitors, including two viceroys and the Scottish historian Thomas Carlyle, who famously described it as ‘a farm-like place’ enhanced by a fashionable Italian-style piazza.Hill’s personal life adds a further layer to Ballyarr’s rich narrative. In 1834, he married Cassandra Knight, a niece of the celebrated novelist Jane Austen. After Cassandra’s death, he married her sister Louisa. Following Hill’s own death in 1879, a third sister, Marianne, joined the household. Both Louisa and Marianne are buried in nearby Tully graveyard.

The story of the Austen nieces in Ireland is detailed in May, Lou and Cass: Jane Austen’s Nieces in Ireland by Sophia Hillan (Blackstaff Press, 2011) while Lord George’s life is recorded in The Peer, the Priests and the Press by Roy Greenslade (Beyond the Pale, 2023).

A Legacy of Stewardship
Hill’s son, Arthur, inherited Ballyarr in 1879 and retained ownership until 1900, when the property was sold to William Russell, along with the adjacent flour mill. The Russell family held the estate until 1974, when it was acquired by Ian Smith, a former hotelier and British war hero, and his artist wife, Peggy. Their stewardship marked the beginning of the house’s modern restoration. Although it was necessary to demolish one wing, its magnificent curved window was preserved and now features in The House on the Brae’ in the town of Ramelton.

In 1981, Ballyarr House was bought by bank manager Andy O’Loghlin and his wife Breda. They sold it in 1989 to Roy and Noreen Greenslade, who carried out an extensive restoration in order to revive the home’s Georgian character. The drawing room and library were returned to their original proportions, new period fireplaces were installed, and ornate ceiling cornices were meticulously restored. Outside, the front façade was stripped of stucco to expose the original stonework.

A Rare Find
With its fascinating history, architectural elegance, and tranquil setting, Ballyarr House is not just a residence it is a living legacy. Lovingly preserved, it is one of County Donegal’s foremost properties.

Overview
Set within 11.8 acres of stunning parkland, this magnificent and fully restored country house offers a rare combination of absolute privacy, refined architecture, and unspoilt natural beauty. A 300-yard tree-lined driveway leads to the property, ensuring total seclusion from the road.

Grounds & Gardens

The landscaped estate boasts extensive lawned areas perfect for summer recreation, framed by mature trees. A walled garden enclosed by an 8-foot-high local stone wall is accessible via timber double doors. A water meadow surrounds a circle of ancient trees known as the ‘Fairy Fort’, which features in the book Native Woodlands of County Donegal by Glenveagh National Park’s head gardener, Seán Ó Gaoithín. Three acres are planted with 5,000 native deciduous trees under the Forestry Commission, enriching the estate’s ecological value. The grounds are bordered by woodland and the River Lennon, which provides a serene and private setting.

Outbuildings
A workshop, adjacent to a boiler room, provides storage for garden tools and machinery. There is a separate building for the storage of logs. They are complemented by a spacious modern garage on the laneway, large enough to accommodate two cars, tractor, and sit-on mower.

Cellar
Beneath the house is a first-class cellar in excellent condition which occupies the entire footprint of the residence. Accessible both internally and externally, it is divided into five well-proportioned rooms. Currently used, in part, for wine storage, it features original flooring and refurbished ceilings. It offers a range of potential uses, whether for additional storage, or as a wine cellar, gym, cinema, or hobby space.

The second floor consists of a further bedrooms with en suite.

The house is in a wonderful location just 500m from the Diamond in Donegal Town and with off street parking and a small and easy to keep garden to rear.
