Philgarva House, Downings North, Co Kildare, is a short distance from the amenities of Prosperous village, while a commute to Dublin city centre is aided by good public transport facilities on the doorstep.

Inside, there is over 2,500 sq ft of floor space incorporating well proportioned rooms, several with feature fireplaces and semi-solid wooden flooring.

The entrance hall has a dado rail, ceiling coving and centre rose. Leading from here are the sitting room, dining room, family room, kitchen, utility and playroom.

The kitchen is fully fitted with built-in presses with integrated appliances and splashback tiling. Both the living room and dining room interconnect via an archway, while double doors leading from the play room to the garden will please younger family members.

The five bedrooms are upstairs, the largest with a walk-in wardrobe and a luxury en-suite including a double shower and steamroom incorporating wall-mounted body jets as well as twin washhand basins. There are also two other bathrooms, each including both a bath and shower.

The house is approached through electronic security gates, and the surrounding gardens have been fully landscaped. To the front, the lawn is bordered by mature trees and shrubs; at the rear is a raised patio including a pond, ornamental bridge and water feature. The rest of the garden is framed by wooden fencing and leafy plants, while outdoor lighting brings the entire space to light in the evening.

For the city commuter, there is a bus stop right outside the entrance.
