Description
Sherry FitzGerald is delighted to present this substantial four-bedroom semi-detached family home, ideally positioned on one of Mount Merrion's most sought-after avenues. Although the property would benefit from modernisation, its generous proportions and excellent footprint offer a wonderful opportunity for the discerning purchaser to create an exceptional forever family home.
Approached via a gravelled driveway, the property opens into a welcoming entrance hall, from which the ground-floor accommodation flows effortlessly through a series of bright and versatile reception spaces to the rear garden. To the front is an inviting living room with a large window and original tiled fireplace, opening into the study and family room, and onwards to the spacious kitchen/dining room. A sunroom with direct garden access, together with a utility room and guest WC, completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, the first floor comprises three generously sized double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a well-appointed family bathroom. A spiral staircase leads to the second floor, where a large attic space provides valuable flexibility for a variety of uses.
Outside, the private front driveway provides secure off-street parking for two to three cars and is framed by mature hedging. To the rear, there is a large, gravelled patio area, a raised deck overlooks the impressive westerly garden, with steps descending to an expansive lawn bordered by mature trees and hedging. Designed to make the most of the afternoon and evening sunshine, this wonderfully private outdoor space is ideal for entertaining, relaxation and children's play. There is a shed which provide useful additional storage. There is also another structure at the rear of the garden (L7.1m x W3.5m - 23ft long x 11ft wide) which can be used as a home office, gym or a teenage hangout.
The location is exceptionally convenient. The shops at The Rise, a focal point of the Mount Merrion community, are within easy walking distance, as are the community centre, churches and a wide range of sporting amenities. UCD's Belfield campus is on the doorstep, while many of south Dublin's leading schools are nearby, including Mount Anville, St Andrew's College, Blackrock College, Oatlands College, Coláiste Íosagáin, Coláiste Eoin and St Kilian's German School. Excellent transport connections include the Stillorgan Quality Bus Corridor, Aircoach, the N11 and easy access to the M50. Blackrock, Stillorgan, Merrion and Dundrum shopping centres are all within a short drive, as is the Luas Park & Ride facility at Sandyford. Accommodation
