Castlemartin House and Estate

Residential Buildings

Castlemartin is a Georgian house and estate on the banks of the River Liffey in Kilcullen, County Kildare, Ireland, built around 1720 to a design credited to Francis Harrison. Formerly a seat of the Eustace family, the roughly 50 room house was for many years the home of media magnate Tony O'Reilly and his wife Chryss Goulandris before the Irish American businessman John Malone purchased the estate in 2015. The roughly 750 acre property includes a stud farm, cattle breeding operations, a restored medieval church, and an icehouse, and remains a private dwelling.
