HIDDEN AT THE end of a private laneway just off the Westminster Road in Foxrock, Weavers Hall is certainly not your average house. This remarkable and striking home is the definition of contemporary elegance mixed with timeless design. And for €7,250,000, it could all be yours.
Designed by the architect Paul Brazil and constructed in about 1999, Weavers Hall is a lesson in distinctive, modern architecture with a touch of romantic grandeur. From its octagonal, tower-like sunroom with cupola to its bargeboard-trimmed slate roof and sash windows, it's full of character.
A gently curving gravel driveway, flanked by maple trees, sets the tone upon arrival. Indian sandstone pathways meander through borders of lavender, climbing roses and clipped Buxus balls, culminating in secluded seating areas and a striking garden room. A mature fig tree stands sentry at the back door and the property's verdant borders are planted with specimen trees such as Japanese holly, paper birch and rhododendrons.

Step inside and you're met with a vaulted entrance hall crowned by a copper chandelier, where a soaring sandstone chimney draws the eye to the galleried landing above. The interior spans an impressive 478 m². Every room is appointed to the highest standard with underfloor heating, wide plank oak floors, bespoke joinery and artisan finishes throughout.

Moys House in the Clarisford area, just off the R496 Killaloe Bypass, is located on approximately 2.35 acres of landscaped gardens and is just a short walk from Killaloe town.

Three bedrooms are located downstairs, with the remainder on the upper level. The master bedroom features a beam ceiling, an Italian-designed en-suite with walk-in shower, and a dressing room that leads via spiral staircase to a unique tower snug.
