Rose Lodge, Chapel Road, Delgany, Co Wicklow, A63DW60

Rose Lodge is a truly enchanting, detached stone-built period residence, discreetly positioned on approximately 0.5 acres of beautifully mature gardens with southerly and westerly aspects along one of Delgany's most sought-after and upgraded roads. Believed to have originally served as the manager's cottage for the renowned Kilruddery Estate, this remarkable home effortlessly combines historic character and architectural charm with the warmth and comfort of family living. Extending to approximately 198.3 sq.m. (2,135 sq.ft.), the accommodation is rich in original period detail, with elegant ceiling cornicing, stained-glass features, open fireplaces and wonderfully proportioned reception rooms all contributing to its unique appeal. The residence offers four generous bedrooms, three of which have sea views, three inviting reception rooms, and a detached guest / office suite enjoying picturesque garden views to the south and west and an abundance of natural light. Perhaps the most captivating feature of Rose Lodge is the extraordinary wisteria that has become an intrinsic part of the property itself wrapping from the front of the house around the southerly gable and into the sunroom/dining room and intertwining with the interior ceiling, it creates a romantic and utterly unique indoor-outdoor living experience, blurring the boundaries between house and garden in a way rarely encountered. This remarkable feature provides a stunning backdrop to everyday living and entertaining alike. The dual aspect principal bedroom is a peaceful retreat, enhanced by dramatic vaulted ceilings that further emphasise the sense of space and character found throughout the home. Three further bedrooms and family bathroom are found on the upper level, while outside the extensive gardens have been lovingly cultivated over many years and are now home to an impressive array of mature trees, flowering plants, established borders and meandering Victorian stone/pebbled/concrete pathways, creating a private haven of colour, texture and tranquillity throughout the seasons. Adding further versatility is a detached annex extending to approximately 20.4 sq.m., ideally suited for guest accommodation, a home office or studio. A range of additional outbuildings provides excellent garage and storage facilities. The generous site size presents exciting future potential for further development or extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Rose Lodge represents a rare opportunity to acquire a home of genuine provenance and character in the heart of Delgany, where period elegance, exceptional gardens and future potential combine to create a truly special family residence.
