Winamac, a semi-detached 1930's period house is one of six of the first modern houses that was built on Bird Avenue. Back in the 1930's, the area, Clonskeagh was predominantly fields. Many of the South Dublin's Grand Homes including Clonskeagh House, Roebuck Manor, Farranboley House, to name a few, occupied the area. Now it is a bustling urban environment, adjacent to UCD and within easy access to the Luas in Windy Arbour and the short trip to the city, along the Old Harcourt Line. Everyday conveniences are at its doorstep including shops, trendy eateries and beautiful walks.
Within the property, this home shows off all the best of a 1930's build. High ceilings throughout this home are complemented by windows flooding this home with natural light. Beautifully maintained, original Tongue & Groove timber floors extend throughout most of the property. Picture rails on the walls accompany the cornicing of the era and again all have been exceptionally well cared for. An Oil fired stove in the breakfast room is a focal point of the home and is complemented by a multifuel stove in the living room and period fireplaces in most of the other rooms.
The gardens which surround this home are a sheer delight. Laid out in ornamental style on one side and as an organic vegetable plot on the other, this 20m long rear garden is filled with natural light. It is a fabulous garden for garden or nature lovers, children and pets. Sit briefly in this garden and you will understand why the Avenue is so named.
The location needs little introduction. The village of Milltown is a short walk away, Dundrum is a little further in the opposite direction. Clonskeagh, Ranelagh and Rathgar are also within easy reach as are their shops, restaurants and various amenities. Again access to City Centre is easy with the nearby Luas. Bus routes nearby are frequent (Route 142) and the N11 & M50 are a short drive away too. There are many excellent Primary and Secondary Schools in the surrounding area eg Our Lady's Grove, Mount Anville School, St Killian's German School.
Overall this fine home offers generous accommodation over two levels together with excellent scope to extend to the rear or into the large floored attic should the need or desire ever arrive.
