Description

Ballard Farm is a superb 20.79 Ha (51.37 acre) farm with charming period residence & an extensive range of outbuildings. This beautiful property is located less than forty minutes from South Dublin and five minutes from the M11 motorway at Kilbride. There are the most spectacular views from throughout the farm across the Wicklow Countryside. Wicklow Town is 9km away and beautiful Brittas Bay beach is less than 7km away. Ballard is located in an area known for some of Co. Wicklows finest farm land and has been farmed to a high standard by its present owners for over fifty years. It has extensive road frontage with excellent quality land, a large period farmhouse and an extensive range of outbuildings, stables and sheds. The land is South facing, gently sloping and free draining. It is currently in grass and is divided into five large divisions and five smaller paddocks. Each of the fields is watered and fenced with stock proof fencing. The residence and farmyard are set back from the public road and are approached via a sweeping driveway, lined with mature native trees. In the Springtime the daffodils along the drive are something to behold. There are a large number of specimen native trees throughout the farm and spectacular Red Kites have been nesting on the property in recent years. The delightful period farmhouse was constructed circa 1820. It is a wonderful family home that simply oozes charm and character. There are many original features throughout, including pitch pine floors and original sash windows. It is in excellent condition throughout but could benefit from some upgrading and or an extension to the rear (Subject to planning permission) Ground floor accommodation comprises of: Entrance Porch, Entrance Hall, Sitting Room, Living room, Sun room, Study, WC, Kitchen/Dining Room, Boot room and Pantry. Upstairs there are three large bedrooms and a family bathroom. Heating is Oil fired with a condensing boiler. There is a large multi fuel stove in the sitting room and an AGA in the kitchen/dining room To the front of the property, there is a beautiful and sunny garden and lawn with the farmyard and outbuildings to the rear. The garden is thoughtfully laid out and full of interesting flowers, shrubs and mature trees. The stone built outbuildings include a converted Granary (Currently in use as a play room/home office) and a stunning converted Barn, which has been used in the past as a B & B. The Barn is currently subject to a planning application to convert it into a one bed holiday let. Both buildings offer huge potential for any number of uses (subject to relevant planning permissions). There is also a beautiful stable block as well as various other outbuildings including a large hay shed and a modern greenhouse. The sale of Ballard Farm really is a once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire a truly unique property in a wonderful location.
