Description
Mark Kelly & Associates are honoured to represent Glenholme, an impressive and most imposing 4 bedroom Edwardian family home, situated on one of Bray’s premier roads. This stand out property is set over three floors and spans over 213 sqm (including attic space), offering flexible living and entertaining space, along with a generous rear garden with garage and car port accessed via Wyndham Avenue.
Steeped in history, Glenholme retains many original period features including ceiling cornicing, picture and dado rails, ornate fireplaces and even the original antique service bell. With windows in every room, the house is exceptionally bright and elegantly proportioned.
The ground floor houses a delightful south facing reception room, overlooking the sizeable front garden and showcases a feature fireplace, ceiling coving, and sash box bay window. To facilitate it’s more recent use, a guest/staff annex adjoins, containing a kitchen/breakfast room and shower room, while providing access to the rear garden. This area can easily be reopened up to rejoin the ground floor hallway. Towards the rear of the house and accessing the rear garden features a well-conceived kitchen and dining area. The first floor reveals 4 generous, light filled bedrooms and family bathroom while the top floor unveils a useful attic room which has previously been used as a 5th bedroom and office space. Having remained with the same family for more than 40 years, this superb forever home offers fabulous potential and an exciting opportunity to update and/or reconfigure to suits one's own taste, style and needs.
Nestled in the vibrant neighbourhood of Bray, Galtrim Road is ideally situated, close to an abundance of excellent primary and secondary schools including St Patrick National School, St. Cronans, Presentation College, Loreto College Bray, St. Gerard’s, John Scottus and North Wicklow Educate Together Secondary School. There is easy access to shopping at Bray High Street and there are an ever growing number of restaurants and cafes in the immediate vicinity. For the outdoor enthusiast, there are many outdoor and recreational amenities including numerous walking paths with Bray Head and the popular cliff walk to Greystones not to mention Kilruddery House & Gardens, sport facilities (golf, sailing, GAA, tennis, bowling, soccer and rugby clubs), playgrounds The Mermaid Theatre is also close by while the new Florentine Shopping complex with Stella cinema will be a great addition to the area. Transport links are second to none with the nearby DART Station and local bus routes on the doorstep. The N11, M11 and M50 road network provides ease of access to Dublin City Centre and beyond and Dublin Airport can be reached in approx. 40 minutes by car.
