the design
The main home combines traditional character with modern architecture, anchored by a kitchen and living space designed for connection and entertaining. Every element, from the flow of materials to the recessed and floating timber beams on both the main entrance and recreational building, reflects meticulous design and an extraordinary attention to detail shared between Ashmore and the homeowners.
Across the grounds from the main home, a dedicated recreation building extends the living experience. It includes a fully equipped bar, entertainment area, pool table and an indoor-outdoor cooking and dining zone, creating a space made for gathering and enjoyment. Thoughtfully positioned, it feels independent yet perfectly in harmony with the main residence.

Dan and Michelle were a pleasure to deal with. So happy with our end result. Cannot recommend highly enough! 5 🌟 🤩Posted on Noel StewartTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We engaged Ashmore Building to redevelop our house and from start to finish the experience was excellent. The quality of their workmanship is outstanding, the attention to detail is extremely impressive and combine this with the quality of the building products used - has turned our family home into an amazing property. Special mention to Dan who drove the project along with Matt who was our onsite Foreman for the duration of the build - nothing was a problem. So many people told us building was going to be stressful but we can honestly say it was actually enjoyable - this was down to the personal interaction of Dan & Matt. If we were ever building again would we deal with Ashmore - Absolutely ! That's the best recommendation we can give. Simply Outstanding.Posted on derek fortuneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were were delighted to work with Ashmore construction. Dan and his team worked closely with us to provide a tailor made service for the refurbishment of an existing and tricky protected structure and stone building. The project also included a large extension to the rear and site preparation for a garage and landscaping. Ashmore went out of their way to support us even after their part in the project was complete. I would have no hesitation in recommending them for similar works in the future.Posted on Karen ReillyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dan & Michelle were amazing to work with. Creative and responsive throughout the whole process. We couldn't be happier with the job done extending our home . The quality and attention to detail is next level and beyond all they completed it on time as planned which was crucial for our family. Cannot recommend highly enough- you will be lucky to work with the Ashmore crew!Posted on warmth irelandTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brilliant group of men & women! Very responsive, very neat and tidy and extremely hard workers. Would recommend to anyone!Posted on Patrick FineganTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 'From start to finish Dan and his team were so professional and transparent. My husband and I built a 2000sqft bungalow in Navan, Co Meath. Neither my husband or I are in the building trade, therefore we needed someone with experience to guide us. We put a lot of trust in Dan and his team and it is a decision we are so glad we made. From start to finish Dan explained the building process to us throughout, no question or query was too big or too small. Dan gave us a timeline of the build and not only met it but exceeded it. The standard of the build inside and out is second to none. I would be happy to recommend Ashmore Building to anyone looking to build. The process can be stressful and having a reliable and professional builder made the process a lot easier.' Cathrena FineganPosted on Siofra FitzpatrickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We made an excellent choice in getting Ashmore to build our house. The house is built to exceptional quality. Dan was very easy to deal with and no request was too much. All trades were completed in a timely manner. The site and house were always kept extremely clean and tidy. We would highly recommend Ashmore to anyone beginning the house build journey.
the process
A unique vision to create separate yet cohesive living areas formed the crux of the design process in Garristown. An adjoining one-bedroom cottage completes the composition, offering guests privacy and comfort in a self-contained retreat. Together, the three buildings form a considered whole, blending heritage, landscape and contemporary design into a single, cohesive home that feels both expansive and intimate.
