Nestled on the scenic Lower River Bann, this exceptional property was originally the shell of a former beetling mill, now transformed into a substantial family home. With minimal external alterations, this historic building retains its original charm while offering modern comfort and functionality.
Originally used for linen production, this beetling mill played a crucial role in 18th-century Ireland, as beetling was the final stage in the linen manufacturing process.
