A Quiet Estate Retreat Within Easy Reach of Dublin
Killeen Castle offers an exceptional opportunity to live within a private, gated estate spanning more than 600 acres of mature woodland, rolling parkland and tree-lined avenues. This setting blends country living, natural tranquillity and everyday convenience — located just minutes from Dunshaughlin and with easy access to Dublin via the M3.
As one of Ireland’s most historic estates, Killeen Castle dates back to 1181 and was the ancestral seat of the Plunkett family, Earls of Fingall, for over five centuries. Its striking architectural form was shaped in the early 19th century by Francis Johnston and James Sheil, with the exterior meticulously restored in 2006. Planning permission is currently in place for a boutique hotel, The Castle, that will include bedrooms, a spa and associated hospitality spaces.
The estate is also home to the Jack Nicklaus Signature Design 18-hole golf course, renowned internationally and host of the 2011 Solheim Cup. Set across 350 acres, the course is surrounded by clusters of ancient Ash, Oak, Sycamore and Beech, with the distinctive Hawthorn “fairy tree” overlooking the 12th green. Its generous fairway spacing allows the surrounding woodland and natural landscape to flourish, enhancing the sense of space and calm that defines life at Killeen Castle.
Whether you are exploring the new A-rated homes at Loughmore Wood or the spacious serviced sites at Loughmore, the Killeen Castle estate offers a rare blend of heritage, privacy, natural beauty and commuter convenience in an extraordinary location.
The Estate is just minutes from the bustling town of Dunshaughlin, a rapidly growing location for commuters thanks to its second-to-none links to Dublin City and beyond. Killeen Castle is less than 45 minutes from Dublin City Centre and just 30 minutes from Dublin Airport.
