Property Description

An exceptional opportunity presents itself to acquire a distinguished country residence in rural County Dublin, Clonswords, a fine period home extending to approximately 316 sq. m and is set on approximately 1.2 acres that has benefitted from extensive upgrading and modernisation in recent years. Remarkably convenient, the property lies just minutes from Dublin Airport and the M50, offering swift access to the city while retaining the peace and seclusion of the countryside. Nestled on the outskirts of the sought-after village of Ballyboughal, the house is approached via a private, tree-lined driveway, where a canopy of mature planting provides both shelter and privacy. Elegant, electrically operated bespoke iron gates complete this impressive entrance. The beautifully landscaped gardens are rich in mature trees and shrubs and established woodland planting around the main residence, and a charming stone pond with a water feature, creating an idyllic setting for outdoor living and recreation. A granite portico leads from the gardens into an impressive and welcoming entrance hall. The principal reception rooms are generously proportioned and dual-aspect, comprising a formal drawing room and a separate sitting room, the latter opening through French doors to a bright west-facing conservatory that draws the surrounding countryside into the home. To the rear of the house lies the heart of the residence, a substantial kitchen and dining room with a staircase leading to the Mezzanine Den above. This is a true country kitchen in the finest tradition: a warm and convivial space where family and friends naturally gather, conversations unfold, and daily life is enjoyed. The first-floor accommodation is arranged around a light-filled landing with views across the front gardens. The impressive principal bedroom suite includes a private shower room, while four further generously sized bedrooms complete this level. A well-appointed family bathroom is accessed from the main landing and features a four-piece suite, including a striking freestanding roll-top bath. Viewing is highly recommended and strictly by appointment. ACCOMMODATION: Ground Floor: Entrance Hall 2.96m x 6.25m Bright & light with tiled floor, cornice and centre rose.
