No 40 Castleknock Drive is a wonderfully upgraded, and beautifully maintained very attractive four bedroomed, red brick detached family home with a sunny south west facing landscaped rear garden. This property comprises approx. 140 sq. m. (1550 sq. ft.) with the added advantage of a converted attic which measures an additional 13.58 sq. m. (146 sq. ft. approx.) It has a C3 BER.
This property benefits from a host of extras, which coupled with its many tasteful upgrades such as Sash windows, granite cills, upgraded fireplace, bathroom, ensuite, front and rear garden professional landscaping and unparallelled storage solutions will ensure its appeal and popularity.
Externally you will see the kerb appeal from the tasteful landscaping to the driveway. The striking front garden is fully walled and is predominantly laid in cobble lock to maximise off-street parking for up to 3 cars. It is bordered by granite sets and kerbstones. Buxus and grisalinia soften the landscaping. Garden lighting really accentuates this space at nighttime and is controlled by a time clock.
Gated side access which leads down the side passage is laid in granite and leads to the sunny south west facing rear garden which also benefits from a beautiful and extensive split level granite patio which goes right across the back of the house and drops down to the neat lawn. Mature trees such as a Japanese Acer, Beech and a Crab Apple afford excellent privacy.
A sizeable block built Shed measuring 2.85m long x 2m wide is used as a very well-functioning Utility/Laundry Room which is super practical. It is plumbed for a washing machine and a dryer, it has a sink and storage presses, there are two windows and the floor is tiled. A separate block-built shed is purely for storage purposes.
Castleknock Drive is situated just inside Laurel Lodge close to Castleknock Train Station, ensuring the ultimate ease of commuting to City Centre. The nearby shops, school, creche, church & credit union afford a good selection of conveniences virtually on the doorstep. Castleknock Village & the Phoenix Park are close by and there is unrivalled access to the N3, M3 and M50 ensuring this is an ideal location to set up home.
Viewing is highly recommended and is by appointment.
