Otterbrook, Kilquade, Co. Wicklow

An alluring entrance provides access to a sweeping driveway which leads to this spacious detached property (measuring approx. 287sq mt) With some time, money and attention this property could be brought back to its former glory as it becomes  obvious on inspection that the house was designed and built as a genuine labour of love.

Otterbrook sits on over 4 acres approximately comprising pleasure gardens, four paddocks, a meadow and horse stables. The good life was enjoyed here by the current owners when their children were younger with a resident donkey, hen house, vegetable patch, tree house and orchard. A meandering pathway through magical woodland, a small waterfall and a running river all add to the intriguing and mystical ambience.

The architecturally designed house is super bright, and genuinely impressive due to the state of the art materials used throughout. The reception hallway showcases features such as curved internal hand painted walls, a limed oak staircase and a vaulted height ceiling. The numerous reception rooms are bright with an over generous use of large windows and doors. The conservatory garden room is the jewel in the crown again where limed oak has been used in abundance.

Kilquade needing little introduction has retained its historical charm and is host to the famous Arboretum/ garden centre. The area is synonymous with tranquillity, rolling countryside and imposing standalone houses with picturesque gardens and impressive entrance walls and gates.

Kilquade itself is located on the periphery of Greystones with its beaches, marina, Dart station and choice of renowned schools, award winning eateries and speciality stores.

Sport facilities and clubs are all nearby including golf courses at Druids Glen, Greystones, Delgany, Glen of The Downs and Powerscourt. Tennis, Soccer, GAA, Rugby, Equestrian stables and watersports are also closeby. This part of the world is home to Ireland’s most beautiful walks and heritage nature trials with mountains, forests, lakes and the coast itself to choose from. There is easy access to the N11 leading onto the M50 for easy access to Dublin city and airport.
