Rarely does a home come on the market as spectacular as Woodview House.
This 5 bed detached home in Ballydavid, near Woodstown in Co Waterford, is a 5 bed Georgian-style villa which enjoys an idyllic woodland setting amidst its own private grounds which extends to circa 6.5 acres.
Located just 6km southeast of Waterford City and 4.5km from the holiday village of Dunmore East, Woodstown is itself a popular residential area with the local beach just 2.7km away and the equestrian centre of Pallas Stud just around the corner.
Constructed in 1992, this exquisite home is an authentic reproduction of an original Georgian villa. Upon approaching the property up the sweeping gravel drive it is immediately apparent that a great deal of thought and attention to detail was put into every element of the property.
Woodview House combines the look, feel and proportions of an original Georgian period residence with all the conveniences and comforts of a modern family home. The symmetry, proportions, height, shape and size of the rooms is exactly what you would expect to find in an original Georgian residence and this combined with meticulous attention to detail from the beautiful hand moulded cornicing to the mahogany doors is superb.
Of particular note is the impressive open plan kitchen / living / dining area, which was extended and renovated to a high standard of specification in 2020 with a handcrafted kitchen by master craftsmen Sexton & Sons.
Some of the notable features of Woodview House include zoned oil-fired central heating, uPVC double and treble glazed windows, solar panels, a C2 BER and an alarm. There is also oak flooring and marble tiling throughout, a Sonos home entertainment system, high speed fibre broadband, a heated outdoor swimming pool and three loose boxes.
The accommodation itself extends to approximately 350sqm and consists of an entrance hall, drawing room, living room, dual aspect kitchen/dining room, pantry, five bedrooms, a family bathroom and a study area.
At the side of the property is a deep and sheltered limestone patio wrapping around the heated swimming pool with a south westerly aspect.
To the rear is a detached double garage, currently used as a gym, with a large, tiled utility and a temperature regulated wine store. There is a kennel with dog run to the side as well as three loose boxes tucked away behind the garage.
Woodview House stands on a most private, elevated site of circa 6.5 acres that is approached by a long sweeping gravel drive accessed via wrought iron security gates.
The house is set amidst lawns and gardens with a host of flowering shrubs and plants such as hydrangea and rhododendron with a fruit orchard, vegetable garden, greenhouse and ornamental gardens with meandering gravel paths. The surrounding mature woodland consists of ash, beech, horse chestnut, oak, ceder, silver birch, and fir.
This is undoubtedly one of the finest properties to have come onto the market in Waterford for many years and this wonderful family home is a perfect fit for someone looking for a better quality of life for their family and perhaps a welcome change of pace.
