This home’s in a lovely spot in the heart of the garden of Ireland...
IF you have the time, energy and inclination, there can be no greater reward in life than the pleasure you get from a garden. With such treasures you reap what you sow throughout the year. For f amily pleasure and leisure, there’s nothing like a good garden –a f eature regrettably missing from too many Celtic Tiger-era shoebox homes.
This home – rather appropriately located in Co. Wicklow, the garden of Ireland – has the bonus of wonderful south and west gardens where the long evenings must be a real delight, especially if last summer is anything to go by.
Summerseat is a modern two- storey home and is a manageable 1,749 sq ft – it has lots of space but not too much.
Sherry FitzGerald say: ‘Summerseat’s accommodation is versatile enough for the needs of a young family or active retired folk wishing to find an easily run home that will take treasured furniture from a larger house.’
With four-bedrooms and a modern interior, the home has much to recommend it and has plenty of scope to be shaped into a style of the buyer’s choice.
ONE key feature of this home is its location in the historic village of Enniskerry, away f rom Dublin but close enough to transport links if you are one of those burdened with a daily commute. It’s is a short walk from the centre of the tourist spot, though.
Sherry FitzGerald say: ‘Local amenities are first class, with a real sense of community. Neighbourhood retail ranges from artisan food producers, craft butchers, health and pharmacy, collectables and designer gifts to cosy tea rooms and welcoming eateries. Nearby Avoca Handweaver’s and the pavilion at Powerscourt provide even more retail therapy.’
So there’s plenty to do – if you find time to tear yourself away from that garden.
