The Beeches, Delgany, Co. Wicklow
- Map
Description
A stylish executive home set on professionally landscaped gardens of c.0.40 ha/1 acre within strolling distance of Delgany Village in this idyllic setting off a leafy quiet minor road lending a hint of country life but in touch with suburban amenity. On a slightly elevated site there are views out over the Irish Sea, especially from the first-floor bedroom windows. With light and airy intercommunicating reception rooms and living accommodation of c.244.58 sq.m. /2,633 sq.ft including bespoke designer hand-crafted kitchen to a high specification standard, we recommend viewing of this well-proportioned residence on quite delightful gardens.
Delgany is a lovely place in which to live and bring up young family and despite the apparently "country" setting Priory Road and The Beeches are minutes' walk from the village centre (with its craft butchers, two pubs, village market, and deli/coffeeshop) and the local National School.
While enjoying that sense of community, it is also nice to know that commuters have great choice from Greystones DART, to citybound buses, to the nearby M11/N11/M50 motorway corridor; and a host of sporting and leisure amenities close by.
"The Beeches" has character in abundance - the versatile layout with well proportioned bedrooms on ground and first floors rendering it of appeal to young family buyers and active retired folk, alike - and its three intercommunicating reception rooms, custom handcrafted kitchen, and atrium gallery hall/landing lend a light, airy feeling framing pleasant external views, and complement the four bedrooms (two ensuite) really well.
Whether equestrian and other country pursuits appeal, or retail therapy beckons, this gateway to the Garden County is within half an hour of Dundrum Town Centre but minutes' drive from local retail in Greystones; and this part of the world is a golfer's delight - world-class Druids Glen, the classic courses of Greystones and Delgany Golf Clubs; and newer venues like Charlesland, Glen-of-the Downs, Bray and Powerscourt all within close radius.
