Property Description

An Exceptional Opportunity in One of South Dublin's Most Coveted Addresses

Rarely does a home of such distinction come to market. Situated within the tranquil, leafy enclave of Ballawley Court — an exclusive development of just forty-two homes — this magnificent five-bedroom detached residence occupies a prime position in a quiet cul-de-sac setting, commanding beautiful views over the adjoining parkland.

This is no ordinary home. Built as the original showhouse when Ballawley Court was first established in 1980, this property was conceived to set the standard for the entire development. Over the past thirty-four years, the present owners have maintained it with exceptional care and obvious affection, preserving its character while ensuring it remains a thoroughly comfortable and welcoming family home.

Set within a mature, well-established development, the property benefits from the rare combination of privacy, community, and natural outlook that makes Ballawley Court so highly regarded among those fortunate enough to know it. The parkland setting provides a verdant backdrop that changes beautifully with the seasons, offering a sense of calm and space seldom found so close to the heart of Dundrum village.

Extending to a generous 158sq.m / 1,700sq.ft., the well-balanced accommodation has been thoughtfully laid out across two floors to maximise both space and functionality. At ground floor level, two elegant reception rooms provide excellent flexibility for formal entertaining and everyday family living alike, while a generous kitchen/breakfast room forms the warm heart of the home — a convivial space ideal for the rhythms of modern family life.

At first floor level, five well-proportioned bedrooms provide ample room for the whole family. The main bedroom benefits from its own ensuite facilities, while an additional shower room and a family bathroom ensure the remaining bedrooms are served with ease and comfort. The generous attic space offers an abundance of storage — a practical luxury in any family home. For those with an eye to the future, there is immense potential to further extend the property, subject to the necessary planning permission, making this a home that can genuinely grow with its owners.

To the rear, the garden is a particularly lovely feature of this home — a private, sun-drenched sanctuary that will delight gardeners and families alike. Accessed via a wide side passage, it is enclosed by a handsome cut stone wall and mature hedging, affording an exceptional degree of seclusion from the outside world. Crucially, it enjoys an all-day sunny orientation, meaning the garden catches the light from morning through to evening — a genuinely rare asset in any Dublin property and one that simply cannot be underestimated on a fine summer's day.
Dundrum itself needs little introduction — with its excellent schools, vibrant village atmosphere, award-winning shopping, and outstanding transport links including the Luas Green Line, it remains one of the most sought-after addresses on the southside of Dublin.

Viewing is strictly by appointment and comes very highly recommended.
