Sherry FitzGerald is very proud to offer Gleneagle to the market, a handsome and most attractive double fronted five bedroom detached residence with connecting garage which boasts gardens to the front and rear extending to approximately 0.4 acres. Built circa 1950, this property is full of character with many original features still in tact and although requiring upgrading, due to its unrivalled charm and character it could, if refurbished and modernised become a most magnificent residence. Considering the site size extending to 0.4 acres (0.16 hectares) there could be room for further development subject to relevant planning permission. This home offers plenty of scope for the discerning purchaser looking for a home in a convenient location with a desire to enter an exciting opportunity to transform Gleneagle into a fine residence on superb gardens to match.
Set back from the main road there are large gardens laid in lawn both to the front and rear of the property with a granite wall to border the front and tree lined from neighbours on either side which offers an excellent level of privacy. Entered via a sweeping driveway with ample parking the wonderful magnolia tree takes centre stage on arrival. The front offers parking for many cars in addition to the garage connecting to the property. The grounds to the front are beautifully planted with a magnificent array of flowers to the front coupled with many trees and herbaceous borders. The rear garden laid mainly in lawn with specimen trees and bordered by mature hedging and trees.
Behind the attractive façade the property boasts elegant and spacious room proportions with light filled accommodation. One cannot fail to be impressed by the original features throughout including ornate coving throughout the house, original tiling and striking stained glass window as you rise to first floor. A covered porch gives way to the main entrance porch which leads to the entrance hallway with an attractive staircase to the centre with feature curved walls off either side. The four main reception rooms are off the central hallway which includes the drawing room with a beautiful dual aspect room overlooking the front gardens and flooded with natural light. To the left of the hallway is the spacious dining room with the open plan kitchen/breakfast room to the rear of this with an outlook to the gardens, access to the side garden and outbuildings. The family room located behind the drawing room has views to the exceptionally large garden with sliding doors to give access.
Rising to first floor there are five bedrooms, four large double rooms, a spacious single room and family bathroom. The master bedroom has sliding doors out to the balcony which is a wonderful area to soak up the views and indeed the surroundings.
Gleneagle is located on the highly regarded Kilgobbin Road, and only minutes from the M50, N11, LUAS at Glencairn and excellent bus routes. There are many local shops close by and extensive shopping facilities are available in the Carrickmines Retail Centre, Beacon Shopping Centre and Dundrum Town Centre. There are many schools close by both primary and secondary as well as the recently open Nord Anglian International School. Leopardstown racecourse, Westwood Club, golf clubs, the Beacon Court Hotel and Beacon Hospital are a short commute away. The location is close to the Wicklow and Dublin Mountains with its many sporting and leisure amenities coupled with the newly opened Fernhill Gardens which one can walk to within ten minutes. Viewing is highly recommended.
