Description

A fine Edwardian property occupying a wide "road frontage" site within the exclusive Burnaby Estate. This is not just any road - it is St. Vincent's Road, one of the most popular roads within the Burnaby. This well-loved home has been meticulously maintained by its current owners where style, flair and perfectionist tendencies are evident throughout. The accommodation offers a variance in layout comprising formal reception rooms enhanced by elegant period features and cosy living quarters with views of the manicured gardens. A spacious conservatory is perfectly positioned to the side. The varying window types and sizes in this property contribute hugely to the immense character of the house which oozes period charm, distinction and sheer sophistication. Instantly attractive, with an exterior that resembles that from a story book - "The Nook" is sure to impress even the most discerning of buyer. Until now, "The Nook" has been admired mostly by passers by on foot and by car alike with no real possibility of access. With its arrival onto the property market interested parties will delight in the opportunity to view "beyond the hall door". O'Gorman Properties is extremely proud to have such a fine period property for sale which is bound to attract strong interest. The gardens are a perfect size- big enough for a family to enjoy whilst being practical enough to maintain. The different elements of the garden consist of manicured lawns interrupted with meandering paths, raised patio areas, well planted flower beds, mature boundary hedging and a quaint seating area. There is a large detached garage which is host to the name plate - "THE NOOK" An ideal lifestyle is on offer here as one can walk to Greystones town centre itself, The leafy Burnaby Park and the South Beach all within minutes. Greystones, voted the most liveable town in 2008 is host to many boutiques, speciality stores, pubs, cafes and award-winning eateries. Close proximity to well reputed primary and secondary schools is a real added bonus as well as all the leisure/sports clubs, GAA, rugby, tennis, Shoreline Swimming pool literally on your doorstep. Greystones, once a small fishing village has successfully transformed in to a vibrant town whilst retaining its strong sense of community spirit. The state of the art Marina is perfect for strolling/dog walking or simply taking in the scenic beauty where mountains meet the sea. Plenty of water based activities such as sailing, sea swimming, kayaking and rowing exist to keep one active and healthy. Commuters will delight in the convenience of the location, being so close to public transport routes. The Dart station is a hop, skip and a jump away and City bound bus links offer a regular and reliable service to Dublin.
