Clonaslee is a wonderful Victorian-style villa with attractive Arts and Crafts detailing, built in 1901 by architect Henry Hobart. The mellowed red brick houses light-filled rooms with high ceilings and it is comfortably configured as a family home with glorious gardens and outbuildings including a separate large, two-storey garage.

Clonaslee is thought to derive from the Irish Cluain na Slí, translated as ‘pasture of the way’ or ‘roadside meadow’, and it is well-named as it is surrounded by more than four acres of mature gardens with sweeping lawns covered in snowdrops and daffodils in spring.

The house has been lived in continuously by four generations of the Ferguson family. The mature gardens were originally designed and planted by Norman D. Ferguson, youngest son of the founder of the eponymous linen business, with rhododendrons adding a blaze of colour in April and May. Indeed, it is thought to be the last linen house in NI to have been occupied by the family that built it, and most of the original interior and exterior features including the original porch, tiling and fine oak outer front door are intact.

The property, which now requires modernisation throughtout, provides a layout for four generous bedrooms plus study and a range of attic rooms together with gracious entrance hall, two formal reception rooms, kitchen, family bathroom, additional shower room, cloakroom, utility room and larder.


Ideally situated on the fringe of bustling market town of Banbridge, opposite the excellent Banbridge Academy (which is housed in Edenderry House, where Norman D. Ferguson grew up) and Edenderry Primary School, and just five minutes’ drive from the A1Belfast to Dublin Road.
