Description

Framed with landscaped greens against the backdrop of mature sycamore and silver birch trees the privacy of the small enclave of Monswood is set immediately. This development, built in 1997, has matured really well and is home to just 33 detached properties. When developed the overall site extended to approx. 10 acres and with just 33 homes it gives a sense of space given to each of the homes set here. As a result, it is seldom a property comes to the market in Monswood and Patricia Stokes Auctioneers & Valuers are delighted to now present No 12, a fine four bedroomed extended detached to the market for sale. The property abounds with space both inside and out where thought and attention is given to easy flow of living space required for families. Extending to over 2,000 sq. ft over two level, this home has been reconfigured with the addition of a bespoke Sigma Homes extension to enhance its offering. The property sports a B2 energy rating thanks to its insulation but also on account of the inclusion of solar panels as well as the all-important car charger. The property is immaculate and will allow the next purchaser to just arrive and literally hang their hat. The easy flow of transition between rooms is aided by pocket doors which slide into the wall cavities to create that open plan space when required and yet allows for each of the ground floor rooms to become their own identified space. Bespoke is a feature running through this home form the clever use of shadow gap skirting and architrave and doors to the kitchen, robes with the work delivered between Cullen View and Celtic Interiors. The overall accommodation is laid out with entrance hall, lounge, living room, kitchen/dining/family room, utility and guest wc all at entry level. The room to the rear offers three uses in one: kitchen, dining and family room. It measures an impressive 500 sq. ft ensuring each of the areas has a significant amount of space for the task at hand. The first floor is home to four spacious bedrooms with both the master bedroom and bedroom two offering en-suites, a family bathroom completes the accommodation at this level. The floor to ceiling height at both ground and first floor has allowed many within Monswood increase their accommodation into the attic space without having to compromise or impose on any of the current double bedrooms at first floor level. No. 12 offers that further opportunity should a discerning purchaser wish. The advantage of engaging the assistance of an architect when designing additional space to an existing home is that they truly ensure that every drop of daylight is captured regardless of time of day or year. The walls of glazing in the family room off the kitchen work in such a way to bounce the light from one to the other and back into the kitchen. The peep window in the gable is just at the right level to keep an eye on the garden while sitting at the breakfast counter. The property is maintenance free finished by the use of a mix of dry dash and red brick which gives this home instant appeal. The outside of the property is finished every bit as well with as much attention to detail as the inside with careful consideration as to how best to lay it out. Overlooking a mature green within the private cul de sac one almost feels its an extension of the front lawn. The rear of the property has a wonderful ambience with the use of a clever lighting plan as well as a warm backdrop of the Sigma Homes extension wrapped in wood. The location of this property offers easy access to a host of primary and post primary schools locally in Rochestown or alternative at Douglas Village. There is a regular bus service outside the park to the city centre with all that it has to offer from academic to shopping and entertainment experiences. There is also a selection of shopping, restaurant and sporting facilities available locally. Access to and from the south link road is also close by. Viewing is strictly by appointment and highly advised.
