Set with the six acres of Ballinlough GAA grounds to the rear Ivy Clad enjoys its own enclosed rear garden with the grounds giving that additional feeling of uninterrupted green space on its southern side. Many of the rooms within are dual aspect and get to capitalise on the views while also maximising the brightness enjoyed within.
