Description
Seacliff, a spacious detached family home on approx. an acre of delightful subdivided gardens having obvious further development potential Subject to PP.
Seacliff is a very special, beautifully presented home on an acre of delightful gardens having huge potential occupying an elevated setting enjoying breathtaking views to the sea and Bray Head with The Sugarloaf as a dramatic backdrop. Tucked away down a quiet cul de sac, an idyllic hideaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, Seacliff is one of just 5 similarly styled homes build on substantial sites in 1995, within 20 minutes' walking distance, (via the North Beach section of the Cliff Walk and Darcy's Park) of Greystones Town Centre, harbour, and marina. This property has all the attributes a family could possibly want - generous living and bedroom space, mature sun-drenched gardens with stunning outlooks, a quiet cul-de-sac location not to mention the generously proportioned adaptable accommodation totalling 257.4 sqm / 2,771 sq ft. approx. including the converted attic space of 57 sqm / 613 sqft approx. plus a pair of double detached garages. Impeccably presented throughout, Seacliff is an ideal property for anyone seeking a beautiful home in a delightful maritime setting just minutes to all amenities.
Upon entering the recessed porch leads through double glass panelled doors to the hallway. Directly ahead is the dual aspect living room with open fireplace and a sunroom bay window taking full advantage of the wonderful sea views. Double doors open into the dining room which in turn leads back to the hall and the family kitchen/ dining / family room with painted timber fitted kitchen which in turn opens out to a lovely patio area., perfect for al fresco dining, entertaining and relaxation. The inner hall with its valuable storage presses gives access to the utility room, family shower room, principal bedroom with its en suite shower room and bedrooms 2,3 & 4 which complete the ground floor accommodation. A staircase leads to a sizeable attic which comprises three separate spaces, two having large arched gable end windows, shower facilities and fitted wardrobes.
The expansive rectangular site extends to approx. an acre of mature gardens which are very private bordered on all sides behind mature hedging. Interspersed through the gardens are some beautiful trees and planting. Directly off the kitchen family space is an expansive south and west orientated sandstone patio, a wonderful place to dine out and enjoy the sun.
A detached double garage of c.85 sqm / 915 sqft with cloakroom facilities is immediately beside the house. The upstairs with independent access provides a very spacious loft area ideal for a number of uses. This building has the valuable benefit of a lapsed planning permission ref 03/9696 to convert the entire to a “granny flat” Behind the house and its main gardens is a huge bonus a separate hedge enclosed paddock of about half an acre with another detached double garage of c.65 sqm /700 sq.ft having gravel driveway approach which has obvious potential for an additional residence(s) Subject to Planning Permission.
The setting and location are very special, within a 2.5km drive of Greystones town centre, harbour and marina and the town's enviable range of amenities. These include supermarkets, boutique shops, eateries, and coffee shops. Sporting facilities including local rugby, GAA, soccer tennis, bowling, sailing, rowing, and angling clubs. Swimming, windsurfing, cycling, hill walking, mountaineering and horse riding are also popular activities. Golfers can enjoy nearby Greystones, Delgany, Bray, Druids Glen and Powerscourt golf clubs. There is a fine selection of local primary schools which include Educate Together agus An Gael Scoil. St Kevin's, St Patrick's, St Brigid's, and Greystones Community National School. Temple Carrig, St David's, and Greystones Community College secondary schools are also close by. The N11/M50 is accessible via the Southern Cross route, the DART station is in the town centre whilst TFI bus routes and Air Coach pass directly by the top of the road.
This truly is a beautiful property and to use that phrase 'must be viewed to be appreciated' because it is only on inspection that you will appreciate the love and effort that has gone into making this house a home. Accommodation
