Keane Mahony Smith are delighted to introduce to the market ‘Glenside House’, a manor-style residence on the periphery of Oranmore Village.

Glenside House was constructed by the current owners in 2004 and from foundation to finish has been thoughtfully completed with the finest materials and craftsmanship. Its specifications and features are entirely impressive.

The property stands on a secluded site of 0.74 acres, bounded by mature hedging and grand sycamore trees. The grounds of Glenside House have been meticulously landscaped and maintained providing a magnificent entrance, fitting of the imposing grandeur of the residence that it leads to.

Glenside House has been constructed above the highest of modern standards, while achieving a regal, period-style status. The residence comprises over 4,135sq.ft of elegant living space over 3 floor levels.

Fronting onto the Maree Road, the property is just a short stroll from Oranmore Village while availing of the rolling hills and forestry of Renville Park and its stunning coastal walkway and pier, just a stone’s throw from the front gate.

Maree Road is a location of status within the area of Oranmore Village, lined with outstanding detached homes and offering rural and coastal views while convenient to the host of facilities provided by the village. Glenside House is certainly one of the grandest properties in the vicinity and compliments the status of the location seamlessly.

Oranmore village provides a selection of excellent schools, various supermarkets and retail shops, outstanding bars and restaurants and the famous coastal views of Galway Bay. Oranmore is an idyllic location for its community and amenities, moreover its excellent road infrastructure and public transport connectivity to Galway and the M6/M18/M18 motorway offers the perfect ingredients for a blissful sylvan lifestyle.

The property is of concrete block construction with double-glazed PVC sash windows throughout and a timeless architecturally-designed façade. The façade is dressed with both English Ivy and Boston Ivy and lined by manicured planted beds.

The front entrance of the home features an attractive doorway surrounded by sidelights and fanlight with exquisite masonry edging. A grand lobby greets you upon entrance with marble tiled flooring and imposing timber staircase. An understairs cloakroom provides substantial hidden storage also.

Ornate skirting and coving line the perimeters of each room, with magnificent 9ft6 high ceilings on both the ground floor and first floor.

Two stately reception rooms lead from the lobby area; the western lounge features dual aspect sash windows overlooking the front and side gardens, along with a majestic black granite open fireplace.

However, this room’s most noteworthy feature is the crimson carpeted flooring with gold and cream border accents, woven and fitted by the venerable V’Soske Joyce Carpets. V’Soske Joyce Carpets have been celebrated globally since their establishment in the 1950’s, providing their services to the most prestigious clients such as US Presidents, Royal Families, Sultans, Sheiks and Embassies, to name but a few. The luxurious crimson carpets are also featured along the staircases and first floor landing area.

The eastern living room features dual aspect sash windows, walnut timber flooring, solid fuel insert stove with white marble fireplace.

A large archway leads to the rear corridor of the residence where the remainder of the ground floor accommodation lies. A lavish dining room presents with walnut timber flooring and dual aspect sash windows overlooking the rear gardens and commanding pools of sunlight thanks to its south-facing aspect.

A tastefully finished bathroom comprises a generously proportioned shower, WC and WHB.

The kitchen is characterised by its bright, light-filled open-plan space and offers a functional family kitchen with high class finishes. The quality fitted units and black granite counter-tops extend into the utility room also. Integrated appliances and an abundance of storage and counter space are further proof of the mindfulness of the architecture and design employed throughout Glenside House.

The dining area overlooks the rear patio via south-facing patio doors while French doors lead from this space to the sun lounge, a double height space with Velux windows, accentuating the existing abundance of natural lighting.

The rear garden of the residence is partially finished in tarmacadam with a stunning paved patio area with white granite picnic table and seating and landscaped greenery. A wonderful doorway within the mature hedging leads to an extraordinary hidden rear garden; an immaculately luscious green with natural local stone features and seating area.

A split level detached garage comprises an impressive 621sq.ft over 2 floor levels. Ground floor level offers roller shutter door access from the rear driveway, while the lower floor level is accessed from the lower rear garden area.

The first floor accommodation is sure to impress with its idyllic floor plan and high class finishes. The plush crimson carpet directs you to the ceremonious first floor foyer from where lies 4 luxurious king sized bedrooms, each with substantial private ensuites and carpeted flooring. The master bedroom has the additional feature of the fully-fitted walk-in-wardrobe room, and benefits from south-facing windows.

The main bathroom is a stunning facility, fully-tiled with WHB, WC, jacuzzi corner bath, built-in shower unit and integrated sauna room.

The large hot press completes the first floor and offers significant additional storage space.

A further staircase leads to the second floor accommodation with 2 rooms and further storage space.

Glenside House, while awe-inducing in its appearance and grandeur, is equally as remarkable in its build and fit-out. The property has achieved a spectacular B1 Building Energy Rating (BER). It has been constructed with an Air-To-Water Geo-Thermal heating system throughout with underfloor heating at both ground and first floor, along with zoned thermostats in each individual room. Cavity wall insulation, dry-lining, Hollowcore flooring at first floor and double-glazed PVC windows further contribute to the property’s efficiency.

Glenside House is a perfect harmony of period-style “manor-like” architecture, modern efficiency and technology, and functional living space. We highly recommend viewing this residence to truly appreciate its breathtaking presence and stunning finishes. Keane Mahony Smith Auctioneers with joint agents Yvonne Sweeeney.
