Description
This delightful and spacious three double bed apartment with a sunny balcony, is set in the context of an impressive period house. Built in 2003 by Shannon Homes as a new wing to the historic Georgian county home "Marlfield House", #15 occupies the top floor on the south corner of the property, facing a green parkland area.
Number 15 is flooded with natural light from windows on all four sides. There is dual aspect glazing in all the main rooms. It is one of just two apartments in this development with a private balcony - and the only one with a sunny SE/SW aspect.
This apartment has been owner-occupied from new and is beautifully presented. The walls are clean painted plasterwork, and the floors throughout are quality wood laminate. There is no carpet or wallpaper in the property. The updated ensuite bathroom is beautifully appointed.
As befits its period setting, the apartment has high ceilings with coving. High quality light fittings match the centre rose plasterwork. An attractive feature fireplace in the main living room is one example of appealing finishing touches throughout.
This is a top floor apartment in its own wing, with no walls adjoining any other apartments, and just a pitched roof overhead. There is one apartment below. A dedicated outside door serves just these two apartments, with their own hallway and stairs. The entrance to this wing is situated to the right of the front steps to Marlfield House.
Outside, Marlfield House is surrounded by well-tended lawned gardens, high laurel hedges and mature parkland. In the grounds there is secure bicycle parking and a covered bin house. The whole development is well maintained by a well-organized management company with a healthy sinking fund. With just 15 apartments, this low density development has an excellent sense of community.
The apartment comes with a dedicated parking space adjacent to the south entrance. Five visitor parking spaces are located to the north of the property. There is also plenty of on-street parking beside the green to the east of Marlfield House.
There are plenty of highly regarded schools nearby. Dunnes Stores in Cornelscourt is a popular destination for weekly shopping. Cherrywood provides an important work hub, transport hub, LUAS link and planned new shopping mall. Easy access to city centre via the N11 with its quality bus corridor. Well served by busses L26, L27 , E1 and E2. Cabinteely Village and the expansive Cabinteely Park with its popular walks, cafe and playground, are just a short walk from the property.
