Description
Sherry FitzGerald are honoured to represent the vendors in the sale of this exceptional, detached family home. 'Tall Trees' is a magnificent, rebuilt architect designed, detached home of 233 sq. m. (2,505 sq. ft.) approx., which enjoys a spectacular South facing woodland site of circa 0.6 acres on Rugged Lane in this special amenity area of the Strawberry Beds. Having undergone a complete rebuild and renovation by its current owners to particularly high standards, the result is spectacular combining the best of classical and contemporary notes. Huge emphasis on the energy efficiency of this home, led it to being externally insulated and clad in Siberian larch with a sealed membrane and the windows throughout are passive standard, tripple glazed. The exterior is just as faultless as the stylish interior and the site offers unrivalled privacy and accessibility to enjoy all of the grounds which are on the flat and are densely planted and comprise well over 1000 trees including a particularly fine Copper Beech which is majestic. Grounds: Copper coloured electric Corten steel gates open to the sweeping driveway and afford the first glimpse of this stunning home. It sits perfectly in the middle of this substantial site, where sweeping lawns, surround the property and Ballylusk Wicklow gravel tops the driveway and paths. Granite stone fronted borders are liberally filled with maples, lavenders heathers and rose. Native trees including ash, silver birch, white cherry, copper beech, scotts pine and hawthorn greatly enhance the mature woodland setting. A Gazebo provides a perfect pitch from where to admire this enthralling site and home. A detached garage and two car ports are versatile and are currently used as a workshop and a log storage area. There is obvious natural potential to further extend subject to Planning Permission if required. "Tall Trees" is situated beyond Castleknock Golf & Country Club, off Porterstown Road on Rugged Lane, opposite the magnificent 560 acre estate of the historic Lutrellstown Castle which also boasts a 5 star golf and country club. The maturity of it's setting, combined with the backdrop of Castleknock Celtic grounds exudes a truely rural feel, yet it is situated within a convenient 5/6 minute drive of Castleknock College, Mount Sackville and Castleknock Village which makes for an unrivalled place to call home. Viewing is by private appointment.
