An Grianan, Co WicklowMyHome.ie
The ultra-modern, 1700 sq ft house offers a trendy all-glass design. Located at Kilcroney Lane, Kilmacanogue, in County Wicklow, the property comes in at €1,150,000.
Any home with a long tree-lined avenue lead-up is already a winner by our standards, and An Grianan certainly gives us driveway envy. The build-up sets the tone for the rest of the home.

An Grianan has double-glazed windows which cover the full width of the house over both floors, which makes you feel as though you are sitting in the heart of the woodland garden outside.
When you enter the house, you will find yourself in the entrance hall, with a cloakroom/shower room leading off the hallway.
The kitchen/dining room is glass fronted, and has a connecting utility room and attached under-stair storage area.
There are two child-size bedrooms fronted by a shared study room, which overlooks the garden and offers views of the Sugarloaf Mountain. The rooms have the potential to be reconfigured into bigger bedrooms.

Despite the modernity of the house, the living room offers a cosy feel, aided by a solid wood-fired stove.
Keeping with the contemporary theme, the two-storey house connects the two floors through a spiral staircase.
Upstairs, you will find a second cosy living room. Across the small landing is the master bedroom suite, with a bathroom attached. The bathroom has a second door leading to a dressing room, a child's bedroom, and a home office.

As you might suspect, the gardens are even more exciting than the interiors. Perfect for any horse lovers, the outbuildings include two stables.
An overhead loft runs the full width of the building, and there was previous planning permission to convert this building to an alternative use.

The home is also a gardener's dream, as there is a tool shed on site. There are also dedicated fruit, flower, and vegetable gardens for you to spend your days tending to.
An Grianan is in a great location, as it is just a five-minute drive from Bray town centre, while you can reach the picturesque village of Enniskerry in ten.
The house is being handled by Colliers Estate Agency. If you would like more information, you can contact marcus.magnier@colliers.com or click here.
