Description
10 Proby Garden is a spacious and well-maintained residence extending to approx 129 sq.m/1390 sq.ft.
offering flexible accommodation with excellent potential to further extend, subject to planning permission. Nestled in a mature and sought-after residential development, this property enjoys a peaceful setting with a cobble-lock driveway providing off-street parking for 23 cars, gated side access, a charming walled front garden with lawn, mature shrubs, and trees and a large rear garden.
On entering, you are welcomed into a bright hallway with access to a shower room. To the left, a generously proportioned living room features a beautiful timber-surround fireplace with open fire and glazed French doors leading into a well-appointed kitchen/dining room. The kitchen is fitted with a range of floor and eye-level units and opens out to the rear garden via sliding patio doors. A partition wall currently separates the kitchen from a versatile fourth bedroom/family room, but the original lintel remains in place, offering the option to reopen the space if desired. Upstairs, the accommodation includes three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom to the front benefits from a large bay window and fitted wardrobes, while the second bedroom to the rear features an ensuite shower room. A third rear bedroom also includes built-in wardrobes. A family bathroom completes the first-floor layout, and there are two attic hatches offering further storage or conversion potential.
The rear garden is a standout feature—wide and private, it is laid out in Indian sandstone with a lovely patio area, raised beds, and a Barna shed. Gated side access leads to a self-contained annex, which includes a studio space with pull-down bed, a small kitchenette, shower room, and French doors to the front. This annex offers excellent flexibility for guests, home working, or rental potential.
The location would be difficult to better, situated within a short stroll of the bustling village of Blackrock with its host of cafes, restaurants, bars and boutique style shops. There are two shopping centres within Blackrock with an excellent array of shopping facilities. The property is situated close to numerous recreational amenities with easy access to three local parks, Blackrock Park, Carysfort Park and Rockfield Park. There are an abundance of sports and fitness clubs available within the immediate area including Green Road tennis club, Granada FC soccer club and an abundance of gyms and fitness centres. The home is ideally located near some of South County Dublin's most highly south after schools including Blackrock College, Willow Park and Saint Andrews and the UCD Smurfit Business School is within a short stroll. The property benefits from excellent public transport links including the DART and multiple bus routes.
This fine home will appeal to a wide range of buyers including first-time purchasers, right sizers, or investors seeking a property with strong rental and future development potential. Accommodation
