Properties don’t regularly arrive on the market in the Brittas Bay area and to get one with stunning views, a spacious five-bedroom residence and 12.32 acres of land could be regarded as a pretty rare package.

Ballytunny, Brittas Bay, Co Wicklow, is currently for sale through Ganly Walters Auctioneers, Dublin, and lies within minutes of the sand dunes at Brittas Bay.

Just 5.6 miles from Arklow and 10 miles from Wicklow town, this rare gem is situated in a highly sought-after region of east Wicklow and yet is just 37 miles from Dublin airport.

Constructed in 2005, the property was built by the owners to a very high spec to include reclaimed polished wooden block pine pitch floors, handmade architraves, Victorian cast iron radiators, Victorian bath, 11 foot ceilings and stripped pine doors.

An array of bay windows found in strategic locations throughout the house capture the panoramic views of the Wicklow mountains, with glimpses of the sea in the distance.

Extending to 3,790 square feet, the accommodation at Ballytunny is bright, spacious and full of light. It includes a large open-plan kitchen/dining area/sitting room with Aga cooker, drawing room, five bedrooms (four en suite), office, utility, cloakroom, scullery and family bathroom.

Outside, there are a number of sun terraces – one on each side of the house – along with sweeping lawns and mature trees.

The 12.3 acres of land is laid out in stud and rail-fenced paddocks that are bounded by natural hedges and old specimen trees. There is also a number of old barns on the property that would be suitable for conversion.

Representing the upper end of the market, Ballytunny is currently for sale at a guide price of €750,000.
