Description
Set along the highly regarded Church Road, Farmleigh is a distinguished double-fronted period residence dating from 1875, discreetly positioned in one of Greystones’ most sought-after addresses. This elegant six-bedroom detached home extends to approximately 200 sq. m. (2,152 sq. ft.) over two gracious floors and offers a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial 6 bedroom family home of character and provenance within a short stroll of every conceivable village amenity.
In the vendors family since 1896, the property was thoughtfully extended in 1914, enhancing its already generous proportions, while a sunroom addition in 1991 further complements the living accommodation with a 4th reception which connects beautifully with the garden. The period ambience of this family residence has been thoughtfully maintained to blend charm with practical family living. Behind its handsome double-fronted façade lies a residence rich in original character, with well-balanced reception rooms and excellent natural light throughout. The ground floor accommodation flows elegantly from formal reception spaces to the bright sunroom both overlooking the garden, and interconnecting with the TV snug, creating an ideal setting for both entertaining and everyday life. Upstairs, six well-appointed bedrooms provide ample flexibility for growing families, guests, or home office requirements.
To the front, the property benefits from valuable off-street car parking — a highly desirable feature in this central village location. To the rear, a magnificent west-facing mature garden offers exceptional privacy and seclusion, enjoying afternoon and evening sunshine — perfect for al fresco dining, relaxation, and family enjoyment. The established planting and generous proportions create a tranquil oasis just moments from the heart of Greystones.
The exclusivity of Church Road is matched only by its convenience. Farmleigh is positioned within a gentle stroll of Greystones’ vibrant village centre, with its award-winning cafés, artisan eateries, boutiques, and independent shops. The seafront, marina, coastal walks, schools (both primary and secondary), sports clubs, and the DART station are all within easy walking distance, making this one of the most desirable residential settings in North Wicklow. Dublin City Centre is also readily accessible via DART or N11/M50, combining coastal charm with commuter convenience.
