Description
Detached Orpen Designed Domestic Revival Style Residence On 0.5 Acres. For Sale By Public Auction at 12 Noon Wednesday, 23rd of November In Our Salesroom at 87 Main Street Bray Co Wicklow (Unless Previously Sold). This circa 1905 “suburban villa” recently damaged by fire is an outstanding example of the Domestic Revival style in the Burnaby Estate. Dunaree exhibited many detailed features that were synomomus with this movement only better than most. These include an asymetric floor plan, large expenses of roof with flat terra cotta tiles, gables also tiled upwards from 1st floor level, dormers and mullioned and transom framed windows and more. The house and site are very well screened from both its neighbours and the tree-lined St. Vincent’s Road. Complete privacy, therefore, is assured. It is worth pointing out that the residential zoning here provides for 2 dwellings to half an acre. There is a great range of facilities and services within minutes walk – town centre with great choice of restaurants, bus and DART services, seaside and harbour with its marina, churches, etc. Sporting facilities abound – rugby at Greystones RFC, Greystones Golf Club and GAA grounds. A number of other golf clubs are located within a few minutes drive – Druids Glen, Delgany and Bray.
