Description
Welcome to 81 Newtown Avenue, Blackrock, built in 1928, this home provides the perfect blank canvas for any discerning purchaser to put their own stamp on a well-located, coastal family home of character and charm.
This three-bedroom semi-detached home is within short walking distance to Blackrock village with the DART (at Seapoint) on its doorstep and just a stone's throw from the most popular bathing spot at Seapoint.
Full of potential, with its partially red bricked exterior, it has two well-proportioned interconnecting reception rooms, a fitted kitchen and conservatory to the rear at ground level, with three bedrooms (two of which are generous doubles) and a bathroom with separate w.c on the first floor. There is a good-sized rear garden laid mainly in lawn with an abundance of plants and an apple tree. Aside passage leads through the garage and also, an outside shed for storage.
The garden is very private and is not directly overlooked with a westerly aspect for evening sunshine. The front gardens come with a gated front entrance and off-street parking is provided for two cars and a garage with automatic door.
With a lot of the original 1920 features intact, this is a lovely bright home with original stained floors, fireplaces with overmantels dating from 1928, internal doors and brass door handles. The garage to the side with a door leading to the rear garden could be converted subject to the relevant planning. Or the kitchen could be extended through the conservatory out into the long back garden.
