Description

ERA Downey McCarthy are very pleased to announce the sale of no. 16 Kilbarry Cottages. These unique houses were solidly built 'back to back' many years ago and No. 16 was cleverly extended in more recent times. This property now provides ample living accommodation along with a superb spacious back garden that is both South facing and immensely private. The Accommodation includes a Porch, Hallway, kitchen/Dining Room, Living Room, Bathroom, Bedroom 3 or Second Living Room and a sunroom all on the Ground Floor. Upstairs we have 2 fine spacious bedrooms with a small bathroom in the main bedroom. Overall it is a deceptively spacious property with ample accommodation for a family home. Going out from the Sunroom, we have an outside house that is attached to the side of the property. This could be easily converted into living accommodation if required. At present this acts as a garage/shed/utility/laundry room. The garden is quite extensive and extends sideways with a lawned area at the end of the steps. All in all this is quite an interesting proposition.

Accommodation

To the front of the property there is a tarmacadam driveway. This is a shared driveway and there is also parking available off the street. Steps lead up to a fully enclosed aluminium porch, which gives access to the front of the property. The back garden has a concrete footpath which winds its way down to the back. There is mature plants and shrubs on either side and at the end there is a large garden laid to lawn with an outside shed. An ideal area for outside entertaining and plenty of space for children to play.
