Description
Comprising portion of the garden and woodland grounds of period neo-gothic Victorian Violet Hill House extending to 2.28 acres, such an opportunity rarely arises where a purchaser may indulge their dream to create a forever home of poise and distinction, or opt to maximise potential to create an exclusive enclave comprising a select handful of luxury designer homes, or a higher density if desired dependent upon planning consent. Zoned Residential on the current county development plan, there is potential subject to planning to develop this parcel of land. Located conveniently to the N11/M11M50 corridor off leafy Herbert Road, and close to Bray's educational, leisure, and retail amenities, Violet Hill House was redeveloped through tasteful subdivision in the 1970's, the main house today retaining the elegant principal rooms and set on over 3 acres, of which the plot vendors will retain sufficient gardens for their young family's requirements. Access to the land in sale may be gained via Violet Hill House's rear entrance gate on Ballywaltrim Lane. Services:- Mains services are laid on to the donor house. Tenure:- Freehold, subject to certain covenants. *Photo with Red Outline is for descriptive purposes only.
