Elsemere is a stunning family home nestled in the foothills of the Dublin Mountains. Extending to 6118 square feet (568Sq Mt) it enjoys a commanding position affording breathtaking views across Dublin City, the surrounding countryside and its own beautiful and extensive garden. Set on 1.4 acres (0.56 Ha)of inviting private grounds this garden has been thoughtfully planted over the course of several decades; now boasting an array of mature trees, shrubs, and interesting plants. The sounds of the Owendoher stream running along the fenced boundary of this property further enhances the garden experience. It is a home that truly enjoys the best of both worlds – the seclusion and tranquillity of the countryside with close proximity to Dublin City. Entering through a stone pillared gate the sheer scale and size of the property across its 3 levels commences its reveal on approach to the distinctive and attractive exterior of the house. No expense has been spared in the building quality of this magnificent home; it must be viewed to fully appreciate the unique nature of what is on offer. The house has been cleverly designed to maximize the exposure of natural light permeating the interior with an abundance of windows and French doors. Running the length of the house a generous terrace provides uninterrupted views from dawn to dusk across the grounds and allows for a delightful and practical outdoor living area, accessed from the main reception rooms, the kitchen and gardens. The versatile nature of the accommodation is a particularly impressive feature of this property. In addition to the primary accommodation the property also boasts 2 additional spaces; a very useful one-bedroom studio and a further two-bedroom suite – both at garden level, which would suit a variety of potential uses or additional living space. Both units are self-contained with independent entrances. On entering Elsemere one is greeted by a large entrance hallway and a fine staircase leading to the upper floor. This spacious hallway sets the tone and scale for the accommodation throughout the property. The main living accommodation is to the rear of the ground floor incorporating a wonderfully proportioned drawing room opening into the dining room and leading to a magnificent kitchen / breakfast area. A very useful utility room is located off the kitchen. At the other end of the main hallway is a guest bedroom suite, with nursery room and ensuite bathroom. Upstairs the family room/sitting room overlooks the grounds on three sides and features a small triangular shaped sunroom, The main bedroom is of generous proportions with excellent views over the gardens, built in wardrobes and large ensuite bathroom. There are four further bedrooms at this level, all with ensuite shower rooms. At garden level, accessed by a stairway from the ground floor, a hallway leads to the stylish one-bedroom studio (670 Sq Ft / 63 Sq Mt) and the very spacious (1163 Sq ft / 108 Sq Mt) two - bedroom suite. There is also a large laundry room off the hallway at this level. From the entrance to the property the driveway extends into a very large parking area beside an automatic two-door garage with upper floor. The original 3 room cottage tucked away in a corner of the property, though now in a semi ruinous state, offers potential for further development.
