Description
Welcome to Sherwood, a magnificent six bedroom detached family home extending to a generous c. 228 sq.m. (2,454 sq.ft.) of bright and beautifully presented accommodation. Set within a cul-de-sac of Dargle Lane, this wonderful property offers very generous and bright accommodation with rooms of great proportions with a lovely flow throughout. Presented in immaculate condition, and meticulously well maintained, this exceptional home boasts quality finishes throughout. The gardens, which are a gardener's delight and child's paradise, are beautifully mature with the rear garden flanked by a stunning forest and carpet of bluebell flowers.
Built in 1987 and nestled on a 0.75 acre site, the property has been substantially upgraded by the current owners over the years to include a new kitchen, bathrooms with underfloor heating, double glazing, cavity wall insulation, a water heating solar panel, external doors and fascias, a wood burning stove and new Riello oil boiler.
Briefly the accommodation comprises of a welcoming entrance porch with Georgian style glazed doors leading to an L-shaped entrance hallway with travertine tiled flooring. To the left is the impressive dual aspect living room with and feature gas fireplace. This room connects to the sitting room which adjoins the beautiful, country style kitchen. The kitchen features a wide range of fitted cabinets with granite countertops and quality appliances, complimented by a Dik Geurts wood burning stove. There are four large bedrooms downstairs, two of which are ensuite. A utility room, family bathroom and a study/office complete the ground floor accommodation. Rising upstairs, there are two additional well-proportioned bedrooms and another bathroom. An impressively large, floored attic room with electric lighting completes the internal accommodation.
Externally, the property is approached through cast iron gates opening onto a sweeping gravel driveway providing ample off-street parking, with a large lawn area enhanced by mature trees and well-stocked raised border beds filled with a vast array of herbaceous shrubs and flowering plants. To the rear, the wonderful southwest facing garden demonstrates years of care and maintenance, featuring patio areas perfect for relaxation, beautiful mature planting including bay trees, hydrangeas and a wide variety of acers, tiered lawn areas with rockery walls, and direct access to forest at the rear. A block built boiler house provides access to the boiler and additional storage. There is a garden shed, external lighting and external tap for convenience.
Sherwood is situated on a cul-de-sac location within close proximity of a vast array of shops including Pettit's SuperValu, Bray Retail Park and Avoca Handweavers. The area is served by excellent local primary and secondary schools and benefits from superb transport links with Bray DART station just a 10 minute drive away, along with bus routes 45, 45A, 45B, 133 and E1 offering seamless access to Bray, Dún Laoghaire, Dublin city centre and beyond.
