|  | | | | 7 The Gables, Ballinteer Road,
Dundrum, Dublin 14 | | | | | | | | Price: €325,000 | | | Phil Thompson of Des Lalor Auctioneers highly recommends viewing this architect designed bungalow, ideally located on the edge of Dundrum village, less than 200m from Dundrum Town Centre, and a very short walk from the LUAS.
The house has a particularly bright layout, wrapping around a central courtyard, with windows opening onto it from three sides. The good sized sitting / dining room is exceptionally bright. |
|
| | | As well as the courtyard there is a 10m x 15m raised, westerly facing, back garden that captures the sun all day long. With single storey dwellings on both sides it is exceptionally private and sunny. At one stage this property was owned by a landscape gardener. It would just require a small amount of tlc to return it to it's former glory.
The property boasts abundant storage space with a 14m2 garage to the side and a separate 8m2 storage room behind the house, as well as a garden shed in the back garden.
With the garage to the side, inner courtyard, and back garden space there is great potential for additional work space, and/or a bright and spacious new kitchen (subject to planning permission where required). With creative use of these spaces quite a few of these bungalows have already been transformed into highly attractive dwellings.
The neighbouring houses on either side are both occupied by very pleasant and quiet owners.
Being in Dundrum, there is a terrific range of shops and facilities nearby. There's a great choice of pre-schools and top primary and secondary schools in the area, as well as easy access to a range of 3rd level options including UCD, Trinity and Dundrum College. The M50 is easily accessible, and the Sandyford Industrial Estate is just a short jump on the LUAS or a few minutes drive.
This bungalow was the offices of Lewis Citron, Solicitor, from 2001. At that time it was sustantially upgraded with completely new fuse box and wiring, new windows to the front and side, new gas fired central heating system, and new 8m2 storage shed to the rear. In the last few months it has been restored to its original residential configuration. It would be the perfect location for a home based business as it has planning permission for commercial or residential use. Thus if the business expanded to require the full premises there would be no need to change the established business location. The bungalows nearby are a well balanced mixture of private residences and home based businesses.
Due to it's proximity to the social hub in Dundrum it is also likely to appeal to young professionals or families with teenagers. | | | |
