Luxury is par for the course in this €2.75m mansion with its own putting green
Kildarrick also boasts a private cinema and plenty of space for outdoor entertaining.
LOCATED IN OLD Rathmichael, south Dublin, is Kildarrick, a five-bedroom property with no shortage of added extras.
First up, the custom-designed putting green outside, designed by Europe Tour Greens. Fans of the company’s practice greens include Rory McIlroy and Ian Poulter, so you’ll be in good company as you ‘putt’ some work into perfecting your swing (we’ll stop now).
Spanning two storeys and 3,500 sq ft, Kildarrick has been completely transformed in recent years to create a modern yet homely property.
Upon entering, the entrance hallway leads from the family living room to an awe-inspiring open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. With a double height gallery and fully glazed wall opening onto the rear garden, there’s no shortage of space in this light-filled room.
The kitchen features a large centre island, with top-of-the-range appliances from Miele, Smeg and Liebherr. A walk-in pantry and utility room can be accessed from here.
If you’d prefer a bit more privacy as you wind down, there’s also a cinema room on the ground floor, complete with electronic blackout blinds and recessed LED lighting.
On the first floor, the master bedroom overlooks the gardens, with sliding doors offering access to a wraparound balcony. A dressing room and en-suite bathroom extend from the master bedroom.
There are three double bedrooms on this floor, one of which has an en-suite bathroom, and a single bedroom with a balcony. A large family bathroom with his and hers sinks and a standalone bath completes the upstairs accommodation.
The property sits on 1.13 acres, with a large outdoor eating and entertaining area, and a double garage.
There is also potential to build another house on the site adjacent to the property, subject to planning permission.
The rear garden features an eye-catching geometric design, with an outdoor kitchen and barbecue for al fresco dining with ease. Kildarrick is accessed via electric gates and a sweeping driveway for added privacy.
Despite its quiet location, the centre of Dublin can be reached by car within 40 minutes, while the nearby Luas stop at Brides Glen and DART station in Shankill mean you can leave the car at home if you wish.
There are several primary and secondary schools within easy reach of the property, as well as multiple golf clubs if the private putting green isn’t enough.
