Description

A stunning detached family home presented in walk-in condition with wonderful attention to every detail and an impressive B1 energy rating. The current owners spared no expense in a top-to-toe refurbishment and extension project in 2006 to create a light-filled, modern, and flexible family home with every conceivable extra included. The accommodation extends to 272 sqm/2,927sqft and is well laid out with a glazed, covered entrance porch, formal living room, family room, guest cloak room, open plan kitchen/dining/tv and office room, four large double bedrooms including a very impressive master suite, two of the bedrooms are en-suite and there is a family bathroom. One of the bedrooms has a very clever mezzanine level just perfect for a teenager's social and study requirements! There is a large driveway with dual entrance offering ample car-parking and the landscaped rear garden enjoys private patios and a relaxing water feature. The location enjoys the peace and tranquillity of suburban living while boasting an abundance of amenities within close proximity. The villages of Donnybrook, Ranelagh and Dundrum are close by with their endless shops, bars and restaurants. It is also close to many of Dublin's premier schools including Mount Anville, Alexandra College, St. Kilian's German School, Muckross Park, Sandford Park, St. Michael's College, Gonzaga and The Teresians as well as UCD being just around the corner. Several bus routes service the vicinity with a host of leisure facilities also within striking distance including David Lloyd Gym at Riverview, UCD Sport and Fitness centre, the Dodder walkways and the well established Milltown Golf Club. Viewing is strongly recommended to truly appreciate all that this superb home has to offer.
