Description
Eastbourne is a truly charming detached bungalow superbly positioned on approximately 0.22 of an acre of beautiful grounds off Grove Avenue and Stillorgan Park in Blackrock. This wonderful three bedroom family home, tucked away in a small and quiet cul-de-sac, was originally constructed in 1940, later extended in the 1970s and comprehensively refurbished in the 2000's.
The accommodation, which enjoys wonderful high ceilings throughout and creates an excellent sense of space, has been very well maintained by the current owner. The large entrance hallway leads to an impressive front-facing reception room, a dining room with French doors opening onto a raised deck and a spacious kitchen/breakfast room which flows through to a utility room. There are also three bedrooms, a bathroom and a storage room located off the hall.
The generous principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite bathroom as well as a highly practical walk-in dressing room.
In addition, the property features a spacious adjoining garage together with a rear extension comprising four separate rooms and a WC. This highly versatile space could be used for a variety of purposes, including a home office, studio, or additional living accommodation.
The jewel in the crown of Eastbourne is undoubtedly the exceptional garden, which is beautifully planted with a range of mature shrubs and trees, alongside a generous lawn bordered by a striking old estate orchard wall.
A large raised deck is ideal for summer dining and leads to an Artic Spas hot tub, offering a peaceful spot from which to enjoy the surrounding garden. To the rear of the garden is a suntrap patio, as well as a chalet-style garden room, which again offers excellent versatility.
The rear garden enjoys complete privacy and seclusion, providing an enchanting oasis of peace and tranquillity for any discerning purchaser. The front garden which is also extremely private benefits from two vehicle entrances and off-street parking for several cars.
Properties in this location, set on gardens such as these, rarely come to the market.
The area needs little introduction, with everything one could possibly want within walking distance, making it an ideal location for families. Nearby Stillorgan Village offers a wealth of shops, restaurants, entertainment venues, and a range of other amenities, while Blackrock and Monkstown villages are also close by.
Many of Dublin's finest schools and colleges are nearby, including the new Nord Anglia International School in Leopardstown, Blackrock College, St. Andrew's, Sion Hill, Mount Anville, Coláiste Íosagáin & Coláiste Eoin, Loreto Foxrock, UCD, and the Smurfit Business School.
There are many local parks within the vicinity including Blackrock Park, Deer Park, Carysfort Park as well as pleasant walks along the coast.
Public transport is extremely well catered for, with the Quality Bus Corridor within a minute's walk, as well as Blackrock DART station nearby. The M50 and LUAS are also only a short drive away, making the commute to the city centre all the easier. Accommodation
