1 Beech Park Drive, Foxrock, Dublin 18, D18XA70

Occupying a substantial corner site (0.20 of an acre approx.) where the gardens have been beautifully matured and manicured to perfection, this is an exceptionally special detached residence where the lush canopy of the strategically placed plants and trees dotted around the perimeter create a wonderful sense of privacy. Having been consistently lavished with great care and attention to detail, the pride of ownership is evident throughout this superior home which has been in the same family for 50 years. The spacious layout, with an excellent flow of accommodation and complimented by lovely natural light, creates a wonderful atmosphere that is perfect for family living and gatherings. It also offers great potential for expansion with ample space on either side of the home, affording new owners the opportunity to create additional accommodation should they so desire (subject to planning permission). As you enter into the property you are immediately struck by the generous proportions of the double height entrance hall with guest w.c., and this impressive sense of space prevails throughout. To the right of the hall there is a reception room currently in use as a fifth bedroom and on the other side of the hall there is an exceptionally large living room, with feature fireplace, that connects through to a dining room, with further feature fireplace, which leads through to both the garden and the kitchen. Upstairs, the bright landing gives access through to four spacious bedrooms, the principal of which is en-suite, and a family bathroom. To the rear of the house there is a secluded, south east facing garden with access to both a utility room and store room that also connects to a sheltered car port. On the other side of the garden, a private area connects to the large side and front garden, all of which combined provide superb areas for outdoor entertaining, places for children to play in and a tranquil oasis to relax in. Beech Park Drive is conveniently situated to nearby shopping facilities including local shopping in Deansgrange and Dunnes Stores retail centre in Cornelscourt, which is only a 5 minute drive away. There is an abundance of recreational facilities and amenities in the vicinity which include tennis courts around the corner as well as the spacious neighbouring Cabinteely Park with its renowned children’s playground and Kilbogget Park.
