Description
Welcome to Roancarrig, a wonderful four bedroom, detached bungalow extending to a generous c. 175.04 sq.m. (1,884 sq.ft.) poised on a lovely, elevated position enjoying stunning sea and mountain views. Within a rural and peaceful setting, this superb property sits on c. third of an acre of beautifully mature gardens and provides a real sense of space and yet is within very close access to Kilmacanogue, Enniskerry, Bray and the N11.
The property was originally built in 1973 with a rear extension added in the late 1970s. Very well maintained throughout, the accommodation is very bright with large picture windows maximizing the views of the surrounding countryside. While the accommodation is already generous, the property offers a great opportunity for further future extension if so required (subject to the normal planning requirements).
Briefly the accommodation comprises of a welcoming entrance hallway approached via a glazed door and side panels leading left into an impressive L-shaped triple aspect living room/dining room. The kitchen offers a good range of fitted storage cabinets and quality appliances to include a Creda double oven and Zanussi dishwasher. A wonderful sunroom with triple aspect and glazed sliding door to the rear patio complements the accommodation alongside a separate utility room. A handy guest WC is located just off the entrance hallway along with a central office/study room. The property offers four bedrooms including the master bedroom with fitted wardrobes and vanity unit, additional large walk-in wardrobe plus ensuite shower room. There is a double bedroom to the front with stunning sea views. A modern, family bathroom and two further single bedrooms, both with built-in floor to ceiling wardrobes, complete the internal accommodation.
Externally, the property enjoys mature gardens with a sweeping gravel driveway providing plenty of off-street parking. The front garden features a stunning lawn area with border beds filled with mature trees, herbaceous shrubs and flowering plants, complemented by a lovely rockery area fronting the property with a wonderful display of beautiful heathers. To the rear, a patio area offers a perfect, sheltered relaxation space with access to the large, detached garage and boiler room. The gardens are very private and allow one to enjoy the sunshine all day long.
The property has oil fired heating, local water scheme supply and has a septic tank.
