Property Description

<p>Craglands is a truly impressive detached Edwardian home with tremendous potential to be tastefully transformed into a modern home whilst retaining it's original character, charm, and Period features. Positioned on a large private secluded corner site of 0.24HA / 0.6 acres approx. in the heart of the prestigious Burnaby Estate, within easy reach of the seafront, beaches, Greystones Golf Club, town centre and DART station.</p><p>Dating back to around 1903 Craglands features in the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage. While in need of refurbishment, Craglands retains its wonderful original<br />character, charm, and period features. The interior offers a blend of bright, elegant reception rooms, cosy family areas and spacious bedroom accommodation. Notable<br />features include high ceilings, intricate plasterwork, fireplaces, large multi-pane windows and a wealth of other architectural details that make this home truly special. The property is set within beautifully proportioned gardens, making it an exceptional residence in a highly sought-after location.</p><p>The spacious accommodation spanning approximately 260.8 sq.m (2,807 sq.ft), briefly includes an entrance hall leading to a family room with access to a sun terrace, bay windowed dual aspect living room, formal dining room which has been reconfigured into a downstairs bedroom (6) with shower room en suite, kitchen breakfast room and utility<br />room. Upstairs, there is a bright landing with feature roof light, main bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, four additional bedrooms and a family bathroom.</p><p>The delightful sun terrace overlooks the original grass tennis court, making it a superb outdoor entertaining and relaxation space. The charming gardens are surrounded and<br />interspersed with mature trees, shrubbery and hedging, screening the property fully from the road. Uniquely, the property has three vehicular access points: one from Portland<br />Road North at the front and two from Hawkins Lane&mdash;one leading to the detached garage and the other a pedestrian gate to the rear of the house. These multiple entry points not<br />only enhance convenience but also lend themselves to flexible living arrangements, such as multigenerational use, a home office with private access, or even potential for further<br />development, subject to the necessary permissions. The property also has the benefit of a lapsed planning permission for the construction of a detached house of 287 sq.m (3,089<br />sq.ft) on 0.14 hectares (0.3 acres) of its garden (Ref. 07/247 &ndash; Wicklow County Council).</p><p>Craglands is described in the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage as a "Detached multiple-bay two-storey Domestic Revival style house, built c.1900. The building is roughly L-plan with typically asymmetrical elevations, that to the east having a slightly Tudoresque appearance. The fa&ccedil;ade is largely finished in unpainted roughcast with a large section of the north elevation in brick, and mock timber framing to the north-facing gable. The tiled gable-ended pitched roof has decorative ridge tiles and an overhang with exposed rafter<br />ends and plain bargeboards. There are two tall chimneystacks, one in brick, one rendered.</p><p>The entrance is to the north elevation and consists of a replacement glazed timber door set within a large segmental-headed porch recess. The windows are of various sizes but<br />all are flat-headed and mainly have timber casement frames, however some of those to the Tudoresque east elevation have granite mullions and transoms. There is a five-sided<br />flat-roofed bay window to this elevation also. Part cast-iron, part uPVC rainwater goods.</p><p>The house is set at the side of a secluded partly tree-lined suburban street but is surrounded by a relatively large garden enclosed by a hedge. To the north side of thegarden is a timber carriage gateway. Memorable Domestic Revival house with slightly unusual Tudoresque east elevation. A fine, well preserved example of the genre".</p><p>The Burnaby Estate - redolent of the 1890's Edwardian era - offers the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience. Just a short stroll to the sea, which is central to life in<br />Greystones, with a new harbour complex boasting a marina and clubs for sailing, kayaking, angling etc. Greystones has an enviable variety of sports amenities to choose<br />from including rugby, soccer, GAA, and of course golf. Shoreline Leisure Centre, winner of Ireland's Best Leisure Centre 2015, has a swimming pool, gym and various other facilities.</p><p>The local schools are highly regarded, with excellent primary and secondary schools both within the town and nearby. Greystones is within 30km of Dublin City and is served by the<br />L1, L2, L3, X1 and X2 bus routes.</p><p>Craglands offers an outstanding opportunity to create a modern spacious home of character in one of Greystones' most coveted locations. Viewing is highly recommended.</p>
