Listed as the third finest gardens in the world by National Geographic, the Powerscourt Estate is just a few minutes walk from this detached home, whose grounds are a world of wonder of their own.
With its sloping lawns, mature trees, herbaceous borders and sheltered seating areas, Beechwalk's elevated 1.44-acre site is a stunning example of how the Garden County earned its moniker.
The property is equally impressive inside. Originally built as a relatively modest bungalow in 1988, it was extended up and out in 2002, creating a new first floor with views over some of Wicklow's most spectacular countryside.
With a floor area of 3,100 sq ft, accommodation includes a family room with a Jotul wood-burning stove, a living/dining room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility, storage room, guest WC and two ground floor bedrooms – one en suite and one currently used as a home office.
Upstairs is the principal bedroom (with walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom), two more double bedrooms and a family bathroom with Jacuzzi bath.
A big bonus outside is a bespoke Shomera garden room added in 2006, which has a living room, kitchen and double bedroom with en suite.
There's parking for several cars in the front driveway, and the home has private pedestrian access to Enniskerry village which is a 10 minute walk away.
Located a five minute drive from the Luas stop in Carrickmines, it's about 30 minutes to Dublin city and Glendalough, and 45 minutes to Blessington Lakes.
