Description
**SALE AGREED**
Marino is a well established and much sought after locality that was built in a carefully planned form on the grounds of Marino House. The initial phase of this regeneration development comprised of over 1,250 concrete-built houses, a material that was considered ahead of its time back in the 1920's.
The design of the new Marino development was heavily influenced by the Garden City Movement, which originated in the United Kingdom with Sir Ebeneezer Howard. Howard's idea came from 19th century writings which inspired him to build the opposite of the general urban conditions that existed at the time, hence building the "Garden City", to be "a perfect combination of rural and urban living". The results are still visible today, with generous communal area and large gardens to the rear of each dwelling.
Situated in the heart of Marino, 49 Croydon Park Avenue is approximately 3.4km north of Dublin City Centre. The services and amenities of Fairview / Marino are just 700m away and offer and excellent choice of facilities which includes specialist retailers and numerous eateries and social venues. Fairview Park and Westwood Health offer all that is required for the sports, leisure and fitness enthusiast. Dublin Bus route 123 (Marino / Walkinstown) passes directly in front of the property while Clontarf Dart Station is less than 15 minutes walk away.Accommodation
