Sitting atop a 1.18-acre site in Enniskerry, Co. Wicklow, this property is a peaceful retreat from city life.

Formerly a small cottage dating back to circa 1875, the property has undergone extensive renovations and has had a series of extensions over the years. New windows and solar panels have been installed to aid the building’s energy performance rating.

Spanning approximately 300sqm, the interior is exceptionally presented. Bright, modern, with tasteful furnishings, the front door opens onto a tiled entrance hall. Double doors lead into a vast reception hall at the centre of the property. From here, there is access to four separate wings on each corner of the property.

The dual-aspect kitchen/dining room is located on the left-hand side, with fabulous views out over the valley and access to a raised deck in the garden. The kitchen has been fitted with cabinets at both high and low levels, complemented by a granite worktop. The pantry—adjacent to this room—offers further storage space.

To the rear, is the formal living room overlooking the garden. Here a bespoke stove takes centre stage. At the end of the living room, there is a guest bedroom with an ensuite.

The master suite is located on the right-hand side of the property and features a large walk-in wardrobe and contemporary bathroom with jacuzzi bath and separate walk-in shower. Moving towards to the rear, there is a versatile room which is currently in use as a playroom. Beyond this, there are two additional double bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bathroom dividing the two. Off to the right, a second hall containing a W.C. and utility press gives access to a home office.

Enjoying total privacy, peace, and seclusion, Ballycoyle is complemented with an idyllic setting along Glencree River boasting memorable views down the valley towards the Great Sugarloaf. The gardens are a wealth of colour and scents with an abundance of mature trees, shrubbery, and wildflowers on display while the sound of the river is constantly in the background. The garden nearest the house is predominantly flat, making it the perfect space for small children to play without fear of passing traffic.

Conveniently located near the small townland of Ballycoyle, the property is approximately 10.5km from Ennsikerry Village where there are a variety of shops, boutiques, restaurants and pubs.

Currently on the market for €980,000, the property is on sale through
Sherry FitzGerald Bray. Take a closer look inside this beautiful Enniskerry home in our gallery below.
