Delgany: from €480,000Joint selling agents Sherry FitzGerald New Homes and Lennox Estates today launch a further phase of Churchfields, Delgany Wood, Delgany, Co Wicklow, a development of 13 new houses (five two-beds and eight three-beds) with prices from €480,000 to €635,000. Completion is by the end of 2007.
Churchfields is a 4.5-acre site within Delgany Wood, a large development of 300 upmarket homes between Greystones and Delgany. The scheme looks across the trees to the church spire in Delgany village, a short walk away.
A mid-terrace two-bed, and a semi-detached three-bed show house, are now on view. Both styles have half redbrick fronts, recessed front cream panelled front doors with cupola, and square bay double glazed sash windows with cut-granite sills.
Inside, an old feel is continued in the ornate tongue and groove panelling, architraves, and carved newel posts and balusters in oak. The predominant colour scheme is in shades of white, cream and taupe.
The three-beds come in three categories: there are two semi-detached homes of 98sq m (1,050sq ft) priced at €610,000; five end-of-terrace houses with the same dimensions, available from €595,00 up to €610,000; and one roomier end-of terrace house with 107sq m (1,152sq ft) has an extended kitchen and larger side garden, priced at €635,000.
A small hall opens to the livingroom with its square bay window and a gas fire set into the wall, positioned at an angle to the room.
Its siting allows the double doors between living and dining room to fold back completely into a recessed space giving an open area if desired.
The open-plan continues with the diningroom - an integral part of the kitchen.
The kitchen is equipped with Siemens integrated fridge, freezer, washing machine, cooker and hob extractor with contemporary glass hood. There is a central island which serves as a small breakfast bar, and all worktops are in walnut. Patio doors open to the garden.
Two of the three bedrooms are good-sized. The en suite shower room in the main bedroom is well fitted out, while the family bathroom has bath with shower, wall-hung basin and toilet, heated towel rail and marble vanity shelf.
The two-beds with 82sq m (880sq ft) range from €480,000 to €495,000 depending on aspect; the two houses with the west-facing gardens carrying the higher price tag.
In each case you walk straight into the livingroom, with recessed doors opening to dining and kitchen area with patio doors out.
Upstairs each double bedroom has a well-fitted en suite shower room, and the storage accommodation in the main bedroom is particularly generous.
