Manderley is without doubt a most elegant, detached residence of great style and character, situated in a prestigious and sought-after residential location on the scenic coast road just a stroll from Malahide village centre and all local amenities, including excellent shopping facilities, renowned restaurants, well known boutiques and DART station.
Properties seldom come to the market for sale in this idyllic coastal setting with stunning uninterrupted views across to the Island Golf Club, Donabate Beach and Lambay Island.
Constructed in circa 1998, Manderley is an impressive two story, over basement residence. Individually designed with gracious family accommodation throughout its three levels. Granite detail and balustrading lead to the entrance hall and impressive inner reception hallway where guests can enjoy the warm welcoming atmosphere throughout. The Canadian ash staircase leads to the upper floor and there is also a guest WC and small basement/lower ground floor area.
Porcelain tiling and Canadian Maple flooring feature on this level and double doors lead through to the formal drawing room at the front with custom made marble fireplace and large bay window with coastal views. From here, steps lead to a quiet family room, also with custom made marble fireplace and double doors to both the spacious kitchen and large sunroom. The kitchen is well fitted with custom made country style units by Dunnes Joinery and from here there is access to the rear garden and sunroom. The sunroom with its pitched glass roof and limestone wall is perfectly positioned to embrace the south facing sunshine and landscaped rear garden. The formal dining room is located at the front of the residence, off the hallway, and also features a large bay window with scenic views.
On the first floor there is a gallery landing overlooking the reception hall with atrium above. The principal bedroom suite is truly exceptional spanning the front of the residence with spectacular uninterrupted coastal views across to the Island Golf Club, the sandy beach at Donabate and Lambay Island. There is also a quiet reading nook also with spectacular coastal views. The principle ensuite is finished in Giovanni Versace wall and floor tiling and Medusa detailing. There are 3 family bedrooms all located to the rear of the property, two of which are ensuite and there is an excellent Heritage family bathroom, with Jacuzzi. The family bedrooms all overlook the landscaped rear garden.
The lower ground floor/basement area is accessed from the reception hall and features a magnificent games room with custom made oak bar by Dunnes Joinery, generous laundry room and large garage capable of storing two cars. There is also a boiler room with central heating boiler and water storage tanks.
Approached by a feature cut stone wall with cobble detail and impressive wrought iron gates. The gardens are an outstanding feature and have been cleverly designed to complement the spacious accommodation. The front garden is fully paved providing excellent off-street parking for a number of cars. Ornate balustrading and granite steps lead to the reception hall and the front garden is well stocked with colour shrubbery. A winding driveway leads down to the large garage with up and over aluminium door, and winding wrought iron stairs to hall level. There is also additional car park space. The rear garden is south facing with extensive paved patio areas, gravel pathways, rockery and brick detail. Not overlooked, the rear garden is an oasis of peace and tranquillity and the perfect position to enjoy all day sunshine, late into the evening. To appreciate this most elegant residence, viewing is essential.
