Architect designed house in an idyllic setting with spectacular views.

Wingfield House has some of the most spectacular views in Ireland. It is positioned

overlooking the sea, where the view stretches from Howth to Arklow.

This is an architecturally designed house, an adaptation of an original farmhouse

which was extended and refurbished to simultaneously take advantage of the

private, secluded location, and to capture the breathtaking scenic views. It was

designed by Padraig Smith Partnership Architects, and every detail was thought of

in this property in its design and layout.

Wingfield is entered through wrought iron electric gates, leading to a private

avenue which passes through the land on both sides, and leads to the house in its

spectacular setting. The light-filled property is nestled away, sheltered by mature

trees and surrounded by lawns and gardens.

LocationWingfield House is located just outside Wicklow Town to the South, overlooking the

sea and Wicklow Lighthouse with the most spectacular views. Co. Wicklow, known

as the Garden of Ireland, boasts unspoilt countryside with mountains, upland lakes,

steep sided glacial valleys, forests, farmlands together with a rugged coastline and

pristine beaches, and five minutes from Blue Flag Brittas Bay.

Wingfield is located within 3 km of Wicklow Town, a bustling harbour town a mere

38km from Dublin City Centre and 62km from Dublin Airport. Ample boutique,

restaurants and entertainment amenities are on offer between Wicklow and Dublin,

including in southern Dublin suburbs (Bray, Dundrum, Dún Laoghaire, Blackrock) all

within less than half an hour’s drive. Wingfield House has access to the M11 motorway

(3 km away), which connects directly to Dublin City (38km) and south towards

Rosslare Port (109 km).

The Garden of Ireland shows off Ireland’s natural beauty at its best, much of which

is on Wingfield House’s doorstep. From rustic forest, mountain or coastal trails

and cycle routes to stately homes with manicured gardens open to the public,

there is something for everyone’s taste. Golfing enthusiasts will find a number of

championship golf courses within a 5 to 15 minute drive, including Druids Glen, The

European Golf Club, Powerscourt, and Blainroe Golf Club.

The beaches, harbour, and inland waterways along the east coast offer a wide

variety of fishing, boating, swimming, surfing and sailing activities - all within a 15

minute drive. Equestrian enthusiasts are also very well catered for with numerous

showjumping, polo, and cross-country stables nearby, and larger events throughout

the year, including the local Wicklow and Bray Hunts which meet weekly during the

season.
