Description

Imposing Semi Detached Period Residence on Good Grounds For Sale By Private Treaty. Glencoe is an imposing spacious two storey over garden level residence on good grounds close to the centre of Bray while at the same time enjoying privacy and lovely open aspect at the rear. Dating from the late 19th century the house is of impressive appearance and provides a great range of accommodation. Most of the period detailing is intact – moulded ceiling cornices, great variety of fireplace detailing, hugely impressive staircase and separate entrance from the side to the lower level. This area could indeed become a spacious self contained floor. Double iron gates to one side provide a vehicular access while a handsome wrought iron pedestrian gate is the access point for pedestrian callers. The Main Street is just a five minute walk away while the DART Station, seafront and promenade are easily reached. The spacious interior has been vacant for sometime and will require some refurbishment. On the other hand there is potential for development on the spacious side garden.
