WITH CCTV, an alarm system and a floor area of 440 m², Pineview is a modern mansion any way you cut it. Built in 2010, this whopper of a home sits behind electric gates in the area of Rathmichael, a countryside-esque setting in south Dublin. Located off the Ballybride Road, the M50 is close by and the village of Shankill is just a stroll away.
Inside, every room takes advantage of the Dublin mountain views with large windows, some floor to ceiling. Big, bright and airy open plan spaces make up the ground floor. And to add even more luxury, there’s a built-in sound system that can pump music into every room.
For such a large house, it’ll come as no surprise that there’s ample choice when it comes to social areas. The hallway on the ground floor has a family bathroom off it, which surely gives an idea of how big this house is.
The hall links to a lounge to the left and a large sunroom to the right that faces south. There is another living area with steps from the largest open plan space, which is also home to the dining area and fitted Siematic kitchen.
A stainless steel and glass staircase enhances the light leading to a spacious landing and six double bedrooms upstairs, five of which are ensuite with the master also benefitting from a walk-in wardrobe.
In terms of energy efficiency, the BER is an impressive A2 thanks to a geothermal underfloor heating system, solar panels for hot water and triple glazed windows and doors.
The back garden is southeast-facing and ideal for outdoor entertaining with its big patio along with a grassy area for kids to play and dogs to run.
Shankill is ideally located for anyone who likes both urban and rural living. Dublin city and the picturesque towns of Co Wicklow sit on either side of the village. With bus routes, the DART and the Luas at Brides Glen close by, no doubt the next owners of Pineview will be doing their bit for the beautiful nature that surrounds it by leaving the car at home.
