Take me to the river: Classic charm meets modern comfort along the river Slaney
Grey’s Corner is on the market for €895,000.
SITTING ALONG THE tranquil banks of the Slaney’s estuary, Grey’s Corner is an impressive home with five bedroom homes that extends over 265 m².
It perfectly blends classic design with contemporary comfort, while being just 1.5 km from Wexford town. Built in 2007 and named after Mr. Grey, a UK milliner who settled in Wexford in 1944, the property holds a piece of local history. Its centrepiece is an 18th century French limestone fireplace and a crimson rose in the front garden that date to Mr. Grey’s time there.
The home’s interiors are a haven for space and light. A grand entrance hallway sets the tone with double height vaulted ceilings, tiled stone flooring and stained-glass accents. The open plan kitchen, dining and living area features a solid timber kitchen with quartz countertops, vaulted ceilings with Velux windows and double French doors leading to a patio.
The family sitting room has oak timber flooring, large picture windows and a door to a sheltered patio, perfect for enjoying sunsets over the estuary.
Grey’s Corner is equipped with mains water and sewage, oil-fired central heating, sensor lights and an alarm system – ensuring both comfort and security.
The home includes five spacious bedrooms, including a main suite with oak flooring, a walk-in wardrobe and water views. The family bathroom, with its freestanding bath and mosaic tiling is a stand-out space. More highlights include a utility room, a stylish shower room and a solid oak staircase leading to the upper floor.
Set on over half an acre of landscaped gardens, the property offers privacy and natural beauty. A mix of native and exotic trees include a Scots pine, birch and a horse chestnut from Versailles. Vibrant flowers like daffodils, hydrangeas and climbing wisteria add plenty of colour.
A private patio facing the river estuary provides an idyllic setting for outdoor dining, while the gated driveway brings to exclusivity up a notch.
Sitting in the Ferrybank area, Grey’s Corner is a stone’s throw from Wexford town. Whether strolling along the estuary, kayaking across the Slaney or exploring the nearby beaches of Curracloe and Raven Point, the location offers a wealth of outdoor activities for families at any stage in life.
Grey’s Corner, Ferrybank, Co Wexford is on the market for €895,000 through Kehoe & Associates.
