Prepared to be blown away as you enter this amazing extremely private resort-style home via electric gates leading to an avenue that is 700m long and is filled with hundreds of specimen trees of varying sizes and shapes, each season bringing its own magic, creating a parkland setting that is truly a living canvas of nature itself. Eight acres of quite magnificent, mature pleasure grounds surround the house, with woodland walks and a Christmas tree forest included. A further six acres of pasture / paddock land is available, if desired. The simply glorious gardens were inspired by the Royal Horticultural Society / Chelsea Flower Show and designed by the famous Irish garden designer, Ralph Wickham. Sympathetically maintained by the current owner, yet always in harmony with the original plans of the unique garden. This home is more than simply a structure, rather a symphony of architecture and nature, enveloped by lush gardens and crafted grounds creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, whilst ensuring the utmost privacy and tranquillity. Properties of this calibre only become available once in a lifetime. The focal point of the garden is the stream that runs through the property and splits to form an island. There are eleven bridges in total which connect various sections of the grounds, with many unique landscapes to be discovered throughout. Further attractive features include a walled fruit and vegetable garden with raised beds, a potting shed/glasshouse, a 968 ft² (90m²) garage with two electric roller doors that could accommodate four to five cars, used as stables or simply additional storage space. A surprise at the end of the avenue is the maze, at the centre of which stands a porcelain table and four chairs, ideal for a morning coffee, al-fresco dining and summer picnics. Potential purchasers will be interested to hear that plans have been drawn up and are available for a swimming pool and spa beside the house with access from the principal bedroom suite, which also includes a sitting room (subject to the relevant planning permission). In conclusion, ‘Ballintim Lodge’ presents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly exceptional property that seamlessly blends luxury living with the tranquillity of country surroundings.
