Description
The curb appeal alone of this property speaks to the extent of work these homeowners undertook to create this marvellous property. A detached dormer bungalow, its handsome double fronted bay window facade is quintessentially traditional, while internally, it's original charm has been seamlessly married with the most wonderful extension and an extensive upgrade throughout under the eye of architect Claire Hyland, resulting in an enviable residence that will appeal to both growing families and those looking to right size. Not only is this a fantastic house but it sits amidst beautiful gardens which have been expertly cultivated by its gardening enthusiast owners and it enjoys a wonderful westerly aspect to the rear.
Once a simple five room bungalow, it has been now reimagined to provide all the elements required for modern family living. On the ground floor the sleeping quarters and bathroom are along the left-hand side and on the right hand side a spacious bay window living room can be opened up to or partition off, via pocket doors, from an incredible kitchen/living/dining. A superb heart of the house, with double height ceilings and extensive glazing creating a sense of living within your garden and ensuring full enjoyment of the outside all year around, this space will be great for family gatherings and entertainment. The property's principal bedroom with en-suite was created by a masterfully designed large attic conversion.
To the front of the house an electric sliding gate gives way to ample gravelled off street parking which is bordered by mature planting. There is pedestrian access from both sides of the property around to the rear garden which is a wonderful open space with a great area for children to play in, large paved outdoor dining and seating area and store houses. The green fingered occupants have stocked the beds full of an array of flowering plants, shrubs, trees, giving it interest all year round.
The location of this property is sought after for its convenience to a wide variety of amenities. There is local shopping in Park point, Dun Laoghaire town and Monkstown Village, a wealth of marine leisure facilities along the local seafront, excellent transport links, sports clubs, scenic walks around Killiney Hill and the local coastline, and of course an excellent selection of highly regarded local schools and educational facilities.
