54 Bishopsbourne Road, Carrick, invites you into a lifestyle of timeless country elegance, where space, serenity, and charm converge to create a truly remarkable rural retreat. Known as "Grawood," this superb colonial-style home sits gracefully on approximately 2.9 hectares of gently rolling pasture, offering the perfect canvas for a growing family to enjoy wide open spaces, fresh air, and the freedom to keep horses or other animals. From the moment you arrive, the care and devotion poured into this property are evident, with every detail reflecting the love and attention of its current owners. The stately brick residence, wrapped in a welcoming veranda, sets the scene for a home that exudes warmth, character, and refinement.
Step inside and discover a residence where period-inspired charm meets modern comfort. At the heart of the home, a country kitchen with stone benchtops, a butler's pantry, and quality appliances invites culinary creativity, seamlessly connecting to a dining room and lounge through French doors. From here, an exceptional atrium draws the outdoors in, framing breathtaking vistas across the Liffey River Valley to the distant Western Tiers, making every moment at home feel connected to the stunning landscape beyond.
Four spacious bedrooms and two elegantly appointed bathrooms offer both functionality and a sense of retreat. The ground-floor master suite is a haven of calm, complete with a stylish ensuite featuring a double shower, vanity, and a generous walk-in robe. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms-two with built-in robes-share a beautifully updated main bathroom, while a separate laundry, powder room, and mudroom add practicality without compromising style.
Adding to the property's allure is a fully self-contained cottage, offering a private retreat for guests or extended family, complete with its own bedroom and bathroom upstairs.
The gardens and grounds unfold as a story in themselves: mature plantings, landscaped beds, and sweeping lawns create a living canvas of seasonal colour and natural beauty, with leafy outlooks enjoyed from many of the home's spaces. Winding pathways invite leisurely strolls, while an automated sprinkler system ensures the gardens remain lush and vibrant all year round.
Beyond the home, the paddocks stretch invitingly, offering a highly functional and versatile rural environment. Gentle undulations make the land practical for grazing and ideal for equestrian pursuits or hobby farming, while wide open spaces encourage the simple joys of country living. A large motor shed and workshop with multiple bays provides abundant room for machinery, vehicles, trailers, or creative projects, complemented by a double bay garage for secure everyday parking and storage.
Set on the peaceful outskirts of the picturesque village of Carrick, this property perfectly balances tranquility with convenience.
