Located at Scalp, Hollywood, in the foothills of the Wicklow Mountains and off the N81

A distinctive two-bedroom home set on more than two acres of woodland near Hollywood on the Kildare border has come on the market for €325,000.

The detached property, located at Scalp, Hollywood, offers a secluded setting in the foothills of the Wicklow Mountains, approximately four minutes from the N81.

Built in 1981, the 120 sq m residence features a split-level layout and large floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the surrounding woodland.

The property is described as being in need of repair and modernisation, presenting an opportunity for a new owner to upgrade the home while retaining its distinctive architectural character.

The grounds extend to just over two acres and feature mature trees, providing privacy and a strong connection with the surrounding countryside. A substantial concrete storage shed is also located to the rear of the site.

The property has two bedrooms and one bathroom, with oil-fired central heating, a private well and a septic tank.

Hollywood village is approximately 3km away and offers a primary school, community centre, local shop and several pubs.

The property is also within easy reach of Ballymore Eustace, around 7.4km away, and Blessington, approximately 12km away. The larger towns of Naas and Dublin are accessible for shopping and other amenities.

The surrounding area offers a range of outdoor activities, including hill walking in the Wicklow Mountains and water sports on the Blessington Lakes. Glendalough and the Wicklow Gap are also nearby.

The property is being marketed by JP & M Doyle, with an asking price of €325,000.
