Set in a small enclave development, this modern, three-bedroomed family home combines generous accommodation and superb views with a convenient location within easy walking distance of Wicklow’s bustling town centre.
Originally built in the late 1990s, the current owners have completed significant improvements in recent times, which have brought the property right up to contemporary standards.
These include a new, state-of-the-art heating system with bluetooth controlled electric ceramic radiators throughout the house, completely new bathrooms and top quality, heavy duty laminate timber floors. All these improvements were completed within the past five years.
The floor area of the property spans almost 1,100 sq ft (101 sq m). On the ground floor, accommodation comprises a large open-plan kitchen-dining room to the rear with superb, elevated views across the town towards nearby mountains and the Wicklow coastline, a good-sized entrance hall and a spacious, well-proportioned living room overlooking the front of the house.
Upstairs are three bedrooms, including one at the back that also commands those wonderful views, and two at the front, one with an ensuite bathroom and the other a flexible living space currently in use as a home office. Upstairs accommodation is completed by a landing with access to the attic and a family bathroom. Thanks to those improvements, both bathrooms are exceptionally well appointed.
The property is enhanced by a host of features including as new laminate floors, quality floor and wall tiling, a modern kitchen accommodating a full range of integrated appliances, a solid-fuel-burning stove in the living room and décor in excellent condition throughout – the entire house having recently been repainted.
Outside, there’s a large, corner site back garden with a lawn, two garden sheds and a timber sun deck that is ideally positioned to enjoy those panoramic views. At the front, the property and neighbouring homes are clustered around the quiet courtyard that gives the development its name.
