Welcome to Brook Lodge, a rural paradise which is the epitome of understated sophistication.
This 4,250sq ft residence, sited on 1.35 acres, is accessed via imposing automatic solid wooden gates and is surrounded by six feet walls ensuring totally privacy and security. The property immediately impresses with its gardens, ponds, gazebo, and decking. It is worthwhile to pause and take in this stunning vista before proceeding up the cobblelocked driveway to the residence, which is clad in dry jointed local stone and topped with blue Bangor slate.
On entering this gracious home, it is immediately apparent that this is no ordinary property and that a significant amount of time and thought went into its planning and design to bring it to its current standard. Off the hallway lies the main family lounge, filled with natural sunlight which permeates through tall picture windows. The formal dining room is adjacent to the lounge and comes with adequate dining space to comfortably seat 10 guests.
Adjacent to the dining room is the kitchen, a room packed with every modern convenience possible including a state of the art integrated coffee machine. The units are of solid cherry with granite worktop, complete with large central island, breakfast bar, built-in wall-mounted TV, and integrated American style fridge freezer. The utility is accessed off the kitchen and also has built-in units.
One of the most imposing rooms must be the games room, which extends to 500sq ft, a fabulous room complete with champion size snooker table; this room could also be used as a second family lounge or reception room. Further accommodation at ground level is four rooms, two are which are double bedrooms, both en suite, and one with a large walk-in wardrobe. There is also a playroom and another large room which currently houses the home office/study but would also suit as a bedroom. The main family bathroom completes the accommodation at ground level.
At first floor level the master bedroom or suite encompasses the entire floor — a stunning room of extremely generous proportions, it comes with its own private lounge and access to the mezzanine level. There is a large walk-in wardrobe with shelving and ample hanging space that would satisfy the most avid shopper. The master en suite comes with a sunken corner Jacuzzi bath and separate four-jet power shower, and is clad in floor to ceiling soft cream porcelain tiling. A large Velux window looks onto the gardens and provides a perfect verdant view.
Brook Lodge is just two minutes’ walk from the shores of the Corrib and it enjoys right of way to same with the additional benefit of fishing and mooring rights for a small annual sum. It is only by viewing this property that you can truly appreciate the quality and the magnificent setting it enjoys.
