Situated on the Dublin side of the village, within 10 minutes' drive of the M50, Ballymurphy is tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac with its own courtyard entrance and landscaped gardens of circa 0.5 of an acre. There is 371sq m (4,000 sq ft) of space.

An impressive and striking feature in the reception hall is the custom-made glass staircase. Opening directly from here is the spacious and bright, open- plan lounge with feature fireplace. This room inter-connects with the drawingroom, complete with double-height ceiling and wood burning stove.

Double doors open from here to the rear garden.

There is additional living space too in the informal family room, which competes as the heart of the home with the kitchen/breakfast room which, in turn, is equally warm and stylish, with Italian porcelain tiles, hand-made units and island unit containing the hob, extractor, microwave and dual ovens.

Doors from the kitchen open into a sheltered patio area. Upstairs are four double bedrooms, all en-suite with the master containing both a power shower and jacuzzi bath.
