Description
Charming Four-Bedroom Dormer Bungalow with Superb 27m (90ft) Rear Garden
RUSSELL ESTATE AGENTS are delighted to present No. 8 Ardagh Park Road to the market. This is a beautifully presented four-bedroom semi-detached dormer bungalow with an exceptional 27m (90ft) rear garden that catches the sun throughout the day. It is ideally located within walking distance of both Blackrock and Stillorgan villages. The house extends to approximately 134 sq. m / 1,442 sq. ft. and has been lovingly cared for by its current owners. It was fully replumbed in 2025, with a new zoned heating system and Bosch combi boiler. Original timber floorboards, wall panelling and an open fireplace give it real character. There is huge potential to extend and create the dream family home (subject to P.P.), while still retaining an incredibly impressive garden.
