Bellamont Forest, Palladian country house in County Cavan, Ireland.

The four-bay residence features red brick construction with limestone elements, including a prominent Doric portico at the entrance and Venetian windows.

Constructed between 1725 and 1730 for Thomas Coote, the mansion was designed by Edward Lovett Pearce after studying Italian architectural principles for three years.

The entrance hall displays black and white marble floors complemented by marble busts of Roman emperors positioned in elevated niches throughout the space.

The estate spans 1000 acres with five lakes, offering opportunities for deer herding, fishing, and exploring forested areas one hour from Dublin.

The piano nobile contains original fireplaces and detailed plasterwork from the 18th century, maintained through multiple changes in ownership.
