Set back 300m from the Strand Road, Meath Place is a peaceful enclave consisting of a variety of different styled homes and No. 4 occupies a prime position towards the end of the cul de sac. Dating from c. 1900, this characterful three-bedroom detached home has been extensively refurbished at various stages over the past 23 years with the latest upgrade taking place in 2020. Finished to a high standard whilst being sympathetic to the fabric of a period property, there is a wonderful twist between contemporary design with plenty of bespoke carpentry on display and original features which have been carefully preserved. The layout was enhanced in the 1980’s with the addition of a double rear extension bringing the overall floor area to 104 sq. m approx. More recently, the accommodation was thoughtfully reconfigured with a clear focus on natural light and ensuring every inch of available space was fully utilised.

Approached by a lane, parking is on street and at the entrance to the property there is a tiled front porch. Passing through the front door, there is instant access to a sitting room showcasing a stove with cast iron surround, fitted shelving, recess lighting, a traditional radiator, an original sash window, plantation shutter, and fabulous Parquet flooring which is a recurring theme on the ground floor. To the left, bi-fold glass panelled doors lead into the living room which similarly incudes the same detail as the sitting room. The open plan kitchen dining room sits to rear enjoying direct access to the garden. In the dining area there is a custom-built unit incorporating a bench and ample presses while the smart handcrafted kitchen features a generous range of cabinetry to include a pantry, integrated fridge freezer, dishwasher, oven, and gas hob, along with Silestone countertops. Beyond the kitchen there is an all-important utility room which is a necessity for today’s living. Here there are additional storage options with presses, drawers, shelves all neatly fitted, and the washing machine is discreetly hidden behind the attractive wall panelling. From here, a door opens to the rear garden which is totally private and low maintenance. Due east and laid with sandstone paving, a well-stocked flower bed featuring an array of colourful flowers, vibrant shrubs, and a Silver Birch tree border the patio while a shed to the right caters for outdoor storage. It is also worth noting a pedestrian gate to the left provides access to a side passage leading to the front of the property.

Returning inside, on the first floor there are three double bedrooms, all include floorboards and the two larger bedrooms contain built-in wardrobes. The principal bedroom is positioned to the rear and has the added benefit of beautiful en-suite shower room. Off the landing a Velux window allows light to filter through, and a fabulous family bathroom completes the accommodation.

This buzzing seaside town is located on the southeast coast and on the periphery of the Wicklow Dublin border and offers the discerning purchasers a superb lifestyle with access to a wealth of amenities. Meath Place is centrally located, in the immediate vicinity there are local supermarkets and shops, and Bray Town Centre is approx. 700m from the front door. In addition, there are a variety of highly regarded schools at primary and secondary level to choose from along with BIFE and crèches. There is no shortage of sporting facilities nearby, including Shoreline Leisure Centre with its swimming pool and gym, County Wicklow lawn tennis club, Bray sailing club, Brennanstown horse riding centre and several reputable Golf Clubs. The renowned Seafront and Promenade is 300m away with its selection of popular ice cream parlours, restaurants, gastro pubs, wine bars, trendy cafes, saunas, and playground, while neighbouring the property is the picturesque Sidmonton Park. For the outdoor enthusiasts there is sea swimming, the famous Bray to Greystones cliff walk and Kilruddery House & Gardens which runs a family-oriented farmers market every weekend. For commuters, the N11/M50 corridor is easily accessible along with Bray Dart Station (5-minute walk) and frequent bus services bringing Bray folk to a host of destinations across the capital. An average Dart journey to Pearse Street takes 45 minutes.

Bray is known as the Gateway to the Garden of Ireland, and is the longest established seaside town in the country. It is only 19km (12 miles) south of Dublin City and is easily reached by DART, Train, Bus or the N11 road. There is an attractive beach and a spacious esplanade. The scenic Cliff Walk on the eastern side of Bray Head, which continues, into Greystones offers walkers a feast of views on the way.

The town boasts fine period housing, shops, restaurants and evening entertainment. Also available in the immediate locality are golf courses, tennis, fishing, sailing, and horse riding. Another feature of Bray is the variety of amusement centres and carnival attractions, bowling alley, and nightclubs. It really is a stand-alone town with the additional advantage of being on the doorstep of Dublin.
