BRAY: €3M:THIS SIX-BEDROOM house near Bray, Co Wicklow, sits in its own grounds which extend to 12 acres.

This gives the 354sq m (3,800sq ft) house a sense of seclusion despite having easy access to the M50, N11 and Bray and Greystones Dart stations.

Around the house are well-kept gardens with lawns, mature trees, shrubs, rockeries and flower beds which have been planted to provide year-round colour and scents. There is also an orchard and tennis court.

One acre of the grounds is made up of woodland, made more magical with the inclusion of a well, stream and stone bridge.

The remaining nine acres is given over to horses and includes two fields and stabling for three animals – this area can be reached directly from the road.

All of this provides lovely views from many rooms in the house, and that view extends to the Sugarloaf mountain.

Most of the accommodation is on the ground floor, with just the main bedroom sitting on the first floor. This has an en suite and walk-in wardrobe.

There are five bedrooms on the ground floor along with a livingroom that has an open fireplace and Sugarloaf views. There is a diningroom with doors onto a patio, a familyroom overlooking the garden and, taking up the equestrian theme, this has stable-doors to the kitchen.

For a close connection with the garden there is a conservatory with a vaulted ceiling and double doors onto the patio.

There are also two garages, one of which is detached.
