With a truly magical garden and stunning interiors, 1 The Mews is an absolute gem which Sherry Fitzgerald is delighted to present to the market. Extending to c.131 sq.m., this 4 bedroom, semi-detached dormer bungalow was designed and built in 2005 by German manufacturer Hanse Haus and is eco-built and timber framed. The current owners are a creative couple, and the house has featured in numerous newspapers and magazines, including most recently the Irish Independent, Irish Country Magazine and Irish Daily Mail. This unique, interior designed home is presented in immaculate condition throughout, with a style reflecting their artistic professions. The couple have a passion for vintage and sustainable interiors, presenting the home in a period and cottage style.

Thanks to the picture window in the living room and colour-drenched decor, this room is a wonderfully open, yet cosy and cocooning space featuring a replica period style fireplace and high-quality Swiss Kronotex laminate floors.

The kitchen/dining room is a superb open-plan space flooded with light, especially on a sunny morning, thanks to the French doors leading to the garden. The room has been painted in a very on-trend deep green, with kitchen units to match. A tiled kitchen floor is complimented by the same laminate flooring in the dining space. Off the kitchen the utility room features a newly replaced high-tech energy efficient Viessman Combi boiler and is plumbed for washing machine and dishwasher. There is also built-in storage, a pantry cupboard and hanging space for an ironing board, plus a door to the garden.

The third reception room/bedroom 4 serves a multitude of purposes for the current owners. It’s mainly used as a home office space, with cleverly designed built-in storage and desk units making the most of the space; thanks to a clever hidden tv cabinet, it also acts as the perfect second living space. Finally, the current owners use it as a guest room with a sofa bed. The downstairs WC/ cloakroom has the added benefit of plenty of built-in storage for coats, bags etc.

The hallway features a stunning wall mural and panelling detail, with plenty of understairs space for storage.

On the first floor all three bedrooms have plenty of built-in storage and both the en-suite and the family bathroom feature Villeroy & Boch bathroom suites. Off the landing is a good-sized storage closet with built-in drawers.

The sunny, private and enclosed back garden has been meticulously cared for and maintained by the owners, featuring raised beds with mature planting. The patio space is wonderfully sheltered and perfect for al-fresco dining. The log cabin / garden room built by Loghouse, is double insulated, featuring a newly replaced metal roof and powered for electricity. Used as both a home office and an art studio by the owners. There is also a timber shed for storage and a wooden bike store to the front driveway.

Situated in Oldcourt Park on the Old Soldiers Road, which is a mature residential enclave of Bray, 1 The Mews is within close proximity to all the local services and amenities that Bray has to offer including a great selection of shops, cafes and restaurants, excellent schools, sports clubs, leisure facilities and a wide variety of public transport links.

Combining all the interior charm of a cottage -style home, whilst offering all the energy efficiency required for modern living this is a ‘must view’, to appreciate the wonderful privacy and convenient location the home offers.

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.
