Superb 3 Bedroom Semi Detached House for Sale in Arklow County Wicklow

Sought after residential area

About the Area

if Arklow’s marks for artistic impression don’t regale you, you might note that a typical mid-range three-bedroom house in the likes of Meadowvale costs around €30,000 less than its equivalent in Wicklow Town, only 15km up the coast to the north, coming in around the €200,000 mark.

There’s been a lot of changes since Van first pulled up in the old fishing town on the mouth of the Avoca river, but the landmark old stone Nineteen Arches Bridge which spans the river near where it meets the sea and links the main southern part of the town to with the northern part, called Ferrybank, is still standing strong.

it’s a well laid out town and despite much expansion over the years, the centre has generally retained its compact form and essential architectural qualities, while the main street still retains its medieval layout.

There is a wealth of buildings of architectural merit, including one of Wicklow’s most impressive churches, the Church of ireland St Saviour’s Church. Erected in 1899, this late Victorian gem dominates the high ground of the town, and looks particularly impressive floodlit at night.

Moving out from the town, there is wonderful countryside all around, with scenic spots like the Vale of Avoca, to the north, and picturesque Glendalough all within easy driving distance. Avoca Handweavers, containing ireland’s oldest mill, is located in nearby Avoca village, where the TV series Ballykissangel was filmed.

The fine sandy beaches of Brittas Bay are also north of the town, while Clogga Beach is 6.5km south.

There is any amount of fine woodland walks, and for those of a sporting bent, two fine golf courses in Woodlands (parkland), described by the legendary Joe Carr as ‘ireland’s Augusta’ and ‘The most scenic golf course in ireland’, and Arklow GC (links); strong GAA clubs in Arklow Geraldines Ballymoney, on Pearse’s Park, Vale Road, and Arklow Rock Parnells, on Emoclew Road, just between the cemetery and the local boxing club; and naturally, the sailing, water sports and fishing fraternities are well catered for in the busy harbour and marina.
