Answer 1

Is it Fairie Tale by Raymond Feist? I read it years ago and what you said reminded me of it - it definitely had a faux-Irish theme so leprechauns might well have been involved. I can't remember the details too well though, I don't know which state they moved to or anything.

Here's the blurb about the storyline that I got from wikipedia, does it ring any bells?

"Phil Hastings and his family have just moved back to his hometown for some much needed peace and quiet from the Hollywood scene. As Phil's twins, Sean and Patrick, soon discover, there is more to their new home than was expected. Gloria, their mother, senses something, but simply dismisses her concern as stress from their recent move. Gabbie, their older step-sister, meets the man of her dreams, but also is tempted by other men. Deep in the woods, The Bad Thing and his Master are ready to break free of the centuries old Compact made to keep the Faerie world and the Human world at peace. Only through believing the insane and impossible can they save both worlds from colliding again."

Answer 2

It was def. Faerie Tale by Raymond E Feist. A far different genre of story compared to his Rift-war and Serpent -war series'. Its classed as a dark fairy tale for the 20th century.
