1 Clifton Terrace, Cliff Road, The Harbour, Greystones, Co Wicklow,

Description

* PERIOD MARITIME RESIDENCE AND MEWS WITH SEPARATE ACCESS *

Greystones Harbour is currently undergoing major change as the public / private partnership creates the new Marina, but Clifton terrace - located overlooking the rocky foreland just south of the harbour - continues to enjoy its easterly views over the Irish Sea, against a westerly backdrop of the Wicklow Mountains. No. 1 Clifton Terrace dates from the Victorian era, and comes to the market in need of renovation and yet it is this element of "blank canvas" in a purchaser's hands that perhaps offers most appeal; after all, how often do period homes overlooking the sea in Greystones come to market offering the opportunity to remodel with flair and imagination, together with a two-storey mews house and garden with separate rear access? Within walking distance of all amenities, this is an exciting opportunity in a special location and we encourage viewing. The main house offers c. 209.12sq.m / 2,251sq.ft accommodation; the mews c. 71.96sq.m / 774sq.ft.

Greystones Harbour has fond memories for many - children paddling by the water's edge at low tide; walking the dogs and getting wet as they shake themselves dry after their latest adventure into the water; shore angling and a worthwhile catch; or sailing dinghys with the local Club - all these associations with good times seem temporarily suspended while such major construction work is under way but the end result will be worth the inconvenience if the plans are anything to judge by. Local organisations using the harbour will enjoy improved facilities; safer water access, and great maritime walks. All in all - an improved built environment at the end of the day.

The new owners of 1 Clifton Terrace will enjoy all this, being just a few metres' stroll around the corner, but will always have the same classic view out to sea. The South Beach is just minutes' walk, as are schools, DART and bus services. Greystones boasts some great restaurants and coffee shops, with friendly local inns and a sophisticated mix of retail outlets.

The property offers c. 209.12sq.m / 2,251sq.ft accommodation in the main house, and c. 71.96sq.m / 774sq.ft in the mews at the rear. A rewarding renovation project with home and potential income, in a unique location.
