8 Crosthwaite Park East, Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin

A rare opportunity to acquire an instantly appealing, imposing two storey over garden level bay windowed period property, wonderfully positioned overlooking the leafy and sylvan Crosthwaite Park, offering generously proportioned and very well maintained accommodation approximately 325 sq.m. (3,500 sq.ft.) retaining nearly every period embellishment of the era with pedestrian rear access.
Crosthwaite Park East is a terrace of easily managed two storey over garden level period properties superbly positioned in a leafy sylvan setting overlooking the attractive square to the front.
Number 8 offers wonderfully bright and airy versatile living accommodation over three levels which can be retained as one family home in its entirety or divided into a home and income, as the garden level has its own entrance which can be divided into a self contained apartment. It has been well maintained throughout and has retained nearly all its period embellishments of the era, however, the time has now come for the discerning purchaser to upgrade and modernise this quality property to their own taste and design subject to the necessary planning permissions as it is located in a conservation area.
The location of the 8 Crosthwaite Park East is second to none being prominently situated overlooking the square to the front, an immense amenity in itself, and is only a short stroll from the People’s park, the sea front and the Main Street of Dun Laoghaire with all its local and boutique shopping, pubs, excellent restaurants, two shopping centres as well as the Pavilion Theatre and the IMC cinema. The area is surrounded by excellent selection of Primary and Secondary schools and all of which are serviced by regular transport with the bus and Dart within easy reach with both Sandycove/Glasthule and Dun Laoghaire Dart stations to choose from.
There are a wide variety of recreational and leisure facilities within the immediate area with a selection of tennis, rugby, hockey, GAA and football clubs and for the sailing enthusiasts the four yacht clubs and extensive marina at Dun Laoghaire Harbour will be of major interest.
