This modern masterpiece in Dublin 18 could be yours for €2.5 million
Carthy’s Green offers the best of both the city and the countryside.
WE SAY GOOD things come to those who wait and that’s particularly the case for Carthy’s Green. With the original site acquired in the mid-90s, years of extensive planning took place before the first drop of foundation was poured.
What stands here now is a striking detached home that dates to 2004. It’s now on the market for €2,500,000.
Located along the Ballyedmonduff Road in Sandyford, the home is filled with natural light throughout. A modern architecturally-designed home that spans a generous 279 m², it’s cosy and energy efficient to boot, with a BER of B3.
The home’s interesting layout means that each of the six bedrooms are located at the garden level, with the main bedroom enjoying fabulous views over Dublin City and Dublin Bay.
Three of the bedrooms have en suite bathrooms, but there are also two more bathrooms on this level, ensuring no long queues each morning.
Venturing upstairs, you’ll find a number of living and entertaining spaces. To the right, there is an expansive living room that comes complete with a stylish bar area and double doors that lead to a terrace overlooking Dublin.
One of the home’s most stand-out features has to be the balcony that gracefully encircles the perimeter at this level.
An indoor/outdoor living room barbecue area adds to the home’s charm, making it ideal for family dining and outdoor entertainment.
For those in need of a quiet space to work or simply soak up the scenery, there is also a small office with an inspiring view bound to make your work day more enjoyable.
Completing this impressive accommodation is the open plan kitchen, living and dining area that’s spacious and bright.
Location-wise, Carthy’s Green offers the best of two worlds. It sits on a .3 acre estate that has direct access to the Wicklow Way walk.
And although surrounded by natural beauty, a big bonus is that it is just a short walk from Stepaside Village, which means you’ll never be far from the essentials. The M50 motorway is easily accessible, putting all national roads, the city and the airport within easy reach. For commuters, a regular Dublin Bus service runs through Stepaside Village, ensuring stress-free travel, too.
There’s no doubt that Carthy’s Green offers the opportunity to own a piece of Dublin’s architectural heritage in a great location.
