This modern Dublin home with incredible views is on the market for €1.95 million

Located at Carthy’s Green on the Ballyedmonduff Road in Stepaside, Dublin 18, this Alpine-inspired chalet boasts incredible sea and mountain views.

Perched atop an elevated site extending to approximately 0.3 acres, Carthy’s Green is a thoroughly modern home surrounded by nature. While the original site was purchased in the mid-90s, a considerable planning process meant that the current house wasn’t built until 2004. 

A testament to the detailed construction of its owner, a revered developer with over 40 years’ experience in the construction industry, Carthy’s Green boasts a total of six bedrooms and five bathrooms, with a very generous living space that extends across 279 sq. m. (3,000 sq. ft.). The bedrooms are located at garden level – three en-suite – with the master overlooking Dublin City and Bay.

Venturing upstairs, you’ll find the living space. To the right-hand side is the living room complete with a vaulted ceiling, a stylish bar area and double doors leading out to the spectacular terrace. A large wraparound balcony encircles the building’s perimeter at this level while inside, a woodburning stove with raised marble hearth and surround heats the room on colder days. 

Elsewhere in the home, is the open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area. This space was designed to facilitate the ebb and flow of daily life and comes with the added bonus of an indoor-outdoor barbeque area. Traditional-style bespoke cupboards have been fitted along with display units, a Belfast sink unit, and a built-in AGA oven. There are also provisions for an integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher. 

A quiet office space completes the accommodation.

Situated just under 1km from Stepaside Village, the property is conveniently located with all necessary amenities nearby. The M50 is easily accessible while a regular bus route also services the area. Families will appreciate the abundance of excellent primary and secondary schools in the vicinity. 

The gardens are a standout feature of the property. Outside, there are extensive veranda/terrace areas to the front, side and rear of the property which benefit from all-day sunshine. Privacy isn’t an issue thanks to a border of mature trees. There is a a carport area to the rear and a gravel drive area.

For nature lovers, the range of outdoor pursuits are endless and includes horse riding, mountain biking and hill walking. The property also enjoys ease of access onto the Wicklow Way walk beside the entrance to the estate.

Currently on the market for €1,950,000, the property is on sale through Sherry FitzGerald Dundrum.Take a tour of this magnificent mountain home in our gallery below.
