Description
Sherry FitzGerald is privileged to present 18 Alder Lodge, an exceptional penthouse residence in the prestigious Farmleigh Woods, Castleknock. This is a remarkably rare opportunity to acquire a truly outstanding 34 bedroom penthouse, distinguished by its extraordinary scale, commanding views, and sunny orientation. Extending to an impressive 220 sq.m. (2,368 sq.ft. approx.), this magnificent Penthouse offers light-filled, free-flowing accommodation of a calibre seldom found in apartment living. The layout achieves a superb balance of reception spaces, generous bedroom suites, and expansive outdoor terraces—perfectly tailored for both sophisticated entertaining and luxurious everyday living. Every room exudes a sense of space, light and grandeur, enhanced by lofty ceilings in the living room and floor-to-ceiling glazing that bathe the interiors in natural light. No. 18 enjoys an enviable South/West orientation, capturing sweeping, uninterrupted vistas across the meticulously maintained communal gardens, the neighbouring Farmleigh Estate and as far as the Dublin Mountains. These remarkable panoramas can be savoured from all four private terraces. Further elevating its appeal, this exceptional penthouse includes two designated spaces within the secure underground car park. Alder Lodge occupies a discreet and tranquil position on the right-hand side as you enter Farmleigh Woods, offering an ambience of serenity and exclusivity that is genuinely rare as it is not directly overlooked front or rear.

Access to Castleknock Village is simple and made shorter via the pedestrian access within the development onto College Road. Mount Sackville is only c.1.2km approx. away and Castleknock College is just at the end of the road. There are several excellent golf courses in the vicinity such as Castleknock Golf & Country Club and Luttrellstown Castle Golf & Country Club to name but a few. Farmleigh is located approx. 7km from Dublin City Centre and 16km from Dublin Airport.
