Description

Churches Estate Agents are thrilled to present this exceptional 1960’s former show house to the South County Dublin property market. Prime Location Positioned at the upper end of Newtownpark Avenue and is adjacent to Foxrock, this substantial family residence is coming to the open market for the first time since being built, having been in the same extended family since new. A rare opportunity to further extend, remodel and maximise the first floor accommodation over the existing considerable ground floor footprint. Built to a solid standard in the early 1960's, Bandon was the show house for the development of approximately thirty, 4 x bedroom, dormer bungalows all with large gardens and typical of the ‘era. History After the passing of the original owner Bandon was first updated in 2003 featuring re-pluming, re-wired and re-modeled into a spacious 2 bedroom home; the existing ground floor bedrooms transformed into the kitchen dining room. In 2007 planning permission was granted for Phase 2 and work commenced on the expansion of the original house, to the side and the rear transforming Bandon into what it is today a B2 rated house with some 200 square metres (2,150 sq ft) on the ground floor alone. The entire roof of the original house was stripped and re-finished with new tiles in order that the newly extended home looked as if it had all been completed at the same time. Dormers were created to meet the requirement for extra bedrooms & bathrooms. The garage to the right of the property was demolished to make way for 'The Annex', a private space, with its own bathroom for guests. Demolition of the garage created access to build the home office/gym in the garden. The Garden In the c.20 meter wide landscaped garden the perfect South-West orientation is a pleasure to behold; completely private and not overlooked by any of the surrounding house. The existing trees were either topped or removed by the current owners to bathe both the garden & the rear of the property in afternoon light. The Opportunity It is close to impossible to find the perfect house, in the right location, the right size, layout, garden, parking and orientation. Recently introduced ‘demolition’ planning guidelines make it virtually impossible to extend and remodel older houses unless the bulk of existing walls are retained. For those buyers wanting a perfect large family home in the Blackrock/ Foxrock areas Bandon provides the ideal opportunity to create this. Directly adjacent, the new private development of 4 contemporary flat roof, 2 storey houses has created precedent for the future planning permission opportunity for Bandon phase 3, a substantial 2 storey home with the benefit of privacy and parking for 4 cars in the driveway. The asking price reflects a fair value of €4,700 per sq metre for the 339 square meter (3,650sq ft) home.
