Everything in store at the village...
You will be spoilt for choice when it comes to some retail therapy as among some of the finest shops and boutiques in Europe are within a few minutes drive. Foxrock village itself, one of the most charming villages in Dublin, offers everything you might expect in a traditional village, a newsagent, post office, butcher, fruit and vegetable shop, beauty salon, fashion boutiques and exclusive restaurants and cafes.
Blackrock, Stillorgan, Dundrum Town Centre and Dún Laoghaire offer a great range of shopping, cinemas, theatres, restaurants and bars all within easy access. The ever expanding Carrickmines retail park is just minutes away.
So much more to explore...
If more active pursuits are what you are looking for, you could choose; sailing from Dún Laoghaire, tennis at Westwood or Carrickmines, one of the oldest tennis clubs in the country, hill walking in Wicklow, horse riding in Stepaside or Enniskerry.
A day at the races at Leopardstown is always good fun and regular race meetings throughout the year mean you will get plenty of opportunities to back a winner.
For the golfers there are a great selection of courses within a few miles radius. Why not try a stroll through the beautiful Powerscourt Estate or right on your doorstep, Claremount will have easy access to Cabinteely Park, ideal for the kids or for those early morning jogs.
Of course the choice of schools in an area is sometimes as important as the house itself for the young family. Fortunately schools such as Loreto Foxrock, St Andrews in Booterstown, Blackrock College and Rathdown are convenient and UCD is just a short bus ride along the N11 .There is also a regular bus service locally for Mount Anville and Alexandra College in Milltown.
Gardens of historical splendour...
Rarely does an opportunity arise to acquire a property in such a unique development. The walls of the former estate at Claremount, dating back to the 18th century, are seamlessly incorporated into this contemporary development giving a regal air to the development.
The former walled gardens of Claremount House had gravel paths, formal shrub bedding and box hedging which surrounded the lawn areas. Retaining and enhancing the integrity of the garden was a paramount design consideration in the proposed development and the current site layout successfully achieves this. These gardens have been lovingly restored for the benefit of the new residents of Claremount. They provide a perfect place to take a few quiet minutes out of your busy day, or for the children to play in a safe environment.
Any potential resident of Claremount should be prepared to have their expectations surpassed.
