Designed with inverted living, the property maximises the panoramic views of the Wicklow Mountains from its first-floor reception rooms while offering a practical and private bedroom layout on the ground floor. The property extends to approx. 336 sq.m (3,617 sq.ft.) Approached via a long, sweeping hornbeam hedge-lined avenue, the house immediately impresses with its striking façade and grand entrance hall. A double-height vaulted ceiling and three arched windows flood the space with natural light, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere. The staircase leads up to the first floor, where the main living spaces are thoughtfully arranged. The formal dining room, featuring a fireplace and freestanding stove, serves as the heart of the home, seamlessly flowing into the well-equipped kitchen. Designed for both function and style, the kitchen includes a breakfast area, fitted sink, gas hob, eye-level electric ovens, timber cabinetry, stone countertops, and a central island. Large windows frame picturesque views of the gardens and Wicklow mountains beyond. On the opposite side of the dining room, the elegant drawing room offers a refined yet comfortable setting with another fireplace and double glass doors opening onto a spacious terrace that wraps around the house, perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. Adjacent to this space is a cosy sitting room with high ceilings, a freestanding stove, and freestanding bookcases. A set of double arched doors leads to the back hall, which provides a practical boot room area, as well as access to a utility room, pantry, and W.C. The entrance door at this level provides access to a generous parking area, and EV charging point. The ground floor is home to the bedroom accommodation, ensuring privacy and tranquillity. The primary bedroom features a luxurious ensuite bathroom with high-end fittings, a large bath, and a walk-in shower, as well as a generous walk-in wardrobe with fitted shelving. There are three additional bedrooms, one of which is currently used as an office, along with a newly fitted main bathroom that includes both a shower and a bath. A private study is located just off the entrance foyer, providing a quiet workspace. A large utility room, including the oil-fired boiler and storage, add to the home's practicality. GARDENS & GROUNDS The gardens at Ashwood House are truly special, offering a serene and picturesque setting that enhances the property's charm. Gravel paths wind around the house, connecting a carefully curated collection of mature trees, including birch, maple, and flowering trees, alongside structured boxwood topiary, and shrub and herbaceous plantings. A charming stone outbuilding serves as a garden shed, adding character and functionality. Adding to the enchantment of the property, there are lovely walking paths throughout the grounds, allowing one to fully appreciate the natural beauty of their surroundings. A standout feature is the Victorian-style greenhouse, set on a reclaimed brick foundation and enclosed by a neatly clipped beech hedge. This space is complemented by raised beds designed for vegetable gardening, making it a dream for garden enthusiasts.
