BEECH DRIVE
Beech Drive is a wonderful modern family home that is privately secluded on approx. 5.8 hectares (14.3 acres). The house has been built to the highest of standards and maintained throughout the years by the current owners.
The house is entered through a hand-crafted door and the entrance hall is a very welcome open space for guests to arrive with tiled flooring. The sitting room is to the left of the entrance and has an open fire that is seldom needed to heat the room and has solid wood flooring. The kitchen and family room to the rear are quite exceptional and is certainly the heart of the home. There is tiled flooring, island unit for a breakfast bar and ample high and low level units for storage with recessed lighting to finish this magnificent space.
The dining/living opens from the kitchen and is a comfortable and welcoming space suitable for both family living and entertaining and is complete with solid wood flooring and feature double-sided central stove. The living space continues on to a very special sunroom that is accessed through a light filled corridor that has access through double doors to the rear and front gardens, perfect for bbq’s in the Spring and Summer months. The ground floor is complete with a large utility area/boot room and guest WC including a shower.
The upstairs area is thoughtfully designed, featuring four spacious double bedrooms, all fully carpeted and offering excellent storage to meet the needs of a family. Bedroom 3 includes its own ensuite bathroom, while the principal bedroom boasts both an ensuite and a walk-in wardrobe. A family bathroom serves the remaining rooms, completing the first floor.
The attic is a versatile, fully finished living space, equipped with electrical and network connections. It is currently accessible via a Stira staircase but offers potential for conversion into additional bedrooms or other uses once a permanent staircase is installed.
GARDENS AND EQUESTRIAN FACILITES
Beech Drive is situated in a peaceful cul-de-sac, offering excellent privacy. The house is approached via a tarmac driveway lined with lawns and a variety of shrubs. There is ample parking around the residence. At the rear, a raised lawn, accessed via railway sleeper steps and is bordered by neatly trimmed box hedging and birch trees. The property also boasts multiple outdoor seating areas, with raised decking at both the front and back of the house, allowing for enjoyment of the sun throughout the day and evening and is perfect for entertaining.
The stable yard, accessible via a separate entrance as well as from the house, features a concrete surface and offers ample parking space. The barn currently houses four stables, with the potential for two more. Each stable has both front and back doors, offering horses the option to look out onto the paddocks or move freely between the stable and paddock. Adjacent to the barn are five small paddocks, all equipped with electric fencing and water troughs. Additionally, there is a 60m x 38m sand arena with an "L"-shaped end, allowing for easy accommodation of a 20m x 40m dressage arena. The arena features a Wexford sand and fibre surface and is fully equipped with piping and cabling for floodlights to be installed, ensuring it can be used year-round.
Across the driveway is a separate parcel of land covering approximately 10.53 acres, divided into four generously sized paddocks. These paddocks can be used for cutting your own haylage in the summer and serve as turnout for horses during the winter months. The property also includes a large hay shed, currently used for storing hay and straw, which could easily be converted into additional stabling if needed.
