Bridesfield, Bridesglen Road, Rathmichael, Dublin 18, D18KD92

Fondly remembered by many as the 'Donkey Santuary', Bridesfield was not only the happy home of a loving family for decades but also a home for many of Ireland's donkies, fostered until a new, suitable home came available. Set behind electronic gates, Bridesfiled not only offers a fine detached bungalow of generous proportions, but also ornamental gardens full of colour, a swimming pool, large paddocks, vegetable gardens with fruit trees and a forest area with river walk making up approximately 3.5 acres of peace and tranquility, yet literally minutes from the Luas at Ballybride, the QBC, the M11 & M50 motorways or for those who seek to get away from the hustle and bustle, a rural setting of green fields and mountain ranges with walks to the Lead Mines or The Scalp, various forest trails and so much more.
