This beautifully presented family home enjoys a quiet setting close to a leafy amenity green within a much sought after residential development in Greystones. It is located just three minutes’ drive from the town centre and a six-minute walk from a modern neighbourhood shopping centre.
The property has benefitted from comprehensive improvement works (completed in 2018) foremost of which is a seamless extension that has created a bright and perfectly proportioned kitchen/dining/living room at the hub of the home.
Other improvements at this time included warmboarding of kitchen walls and soundproofing of all party walls. All walls were re-skimmed and repainted, new laminate flooring and tiling laid throughout the ground floor, new carpets laid on the stairs, landing and all bedrooms, and a guest bathroom provided downstairs. Most recently (February 2023), new ensuite and main bathrooms were installed upstairs.
The property has a total floor area of just over 1,050 square feet, with the open-plan kitchen/dining/living room at the back of the house leading directly onto a sunny, south-facing facing back garden. To the front, a well-appointed sitting room overlooks the front garden. Internal double doors connect the kitchen/dining/living room with the sitting room.
A welcoming entrance hall, with the contemporary style guest bathroom off, completes the downstairs accommodation.
Upstairs are those recently completed bathrooms (one the main and the other ensuite), along with the landing and three bedrooms, all presented to the high standard that is a hallmark of this house.
Number 35 Oaklands benefits from many additional features, including a composite front door and a central heating combi-boiler, all newly completed in 2018. With all rooms in excellent decorative order, the property is in pristine condition throughout.
Outside, there are low maintenance gardens to front and rear, with the front driveway providing off street parking for one car. Both the front and back gardens are mainly laid out in lawn, set off by mature plants and shrubs. The back garden’s south-facing aspect is ideal for barbecues, hosting families and friends, or simply sitting out in the sun. The back garden also includes a timber garden shed.

Built in the early 1990s by Woods builders, Oaklands is a popular and well-maintained residential development featuring mature trees and spacious, well-tended amenity greens.
Tucked away in a quiet spot just a few steps from one such green, Number 35 is a six-minute walk from both the Greystones branch of Donnybrook Fair and a large shopping centre anchored by a Tesco superstore, with a variety of shops and services. The wider town area is well served by additional local supermarkets, including Lidl, Aldi and Supervalu.
The property is within easy reach (13 minutes’ walk) of the many town centre shops, boutiques, stores, pubs, cafés, bistros and restaurants that make Greystones such a popular lifestyle choice.
It is also within walking distance of an excellent choice of schools. These include Greystones Educate Together National School, Gaelscoil na gCloch Liath, St. Kevin’s, St. Patrick’s, St. Brigid’s and St. Laurence’s national schools, and Temple Carrig and St. David’s Holy Faith secondary school. There is also a good choice of pre-school and Montessori schools.
Greystones is home to wide variety of sports clubs including soccer, rugby, GAA, tennis, sailing, cricket and rowing, while an impressive list of local leisure amenities includes Greystones Marina and the Shoreline Leisure Centre, as well as the town’s popular beaches and seafront walk. A variety of Wicklow Mountain trails is also within easy driving distance.
The area is well served by public and private transport, including the 84, 84X and 184 bus routes, and the Aircoach service to Dublin Airport, all of which have stops within walking distance. Greystones DART Station, which has park and ride parking, is a six-minute drive away, or a healthy 15-minute walk. The nearby N11 puts the town within commuting distance of Dublin.
Greystones has twice been the winner of a LivCom Award (the International Awards for Liveable Communities), first in 2008 and most recently in December 2021 when it won first place for this prestigious accolade.
