Description
Spacious dormer bungalow with two large downstairs bedrooms and two dormer rooms upstairs. An architect designed extension constructed in 2000 added a wonderful family room with a lofted ceiling and a large apex window. In addition to sizeable gardens front and rear, there is a very private sun patio to the side of this property.

Originally a 3 bed bungalow, planning permission was obtained to reconfigure it to a 4 bed property with two large ground floor bedrooms, two bedrooms in the attic space and a large family room extension. This work was done in 2000. While the property has sufficient overall height to comply with regulations, the dormer was not configured correctly and comes up slightly short. Thus, this property is being sold as a two bed bungalow with the bonus of two spacious and very useful dormer rooms, with bathrooms on both levels. It should be noted that the house next door, with an identical roof height, has been converted in full compliance.
Accommodation consists of a lovely bright entrance porch, leading to an entrance hall with under-stairs storage and a separate guest WC. To the right is a large bright living room with a wood burning stove. To the left is a double bedroom measuring 3.5m x 3.1m. To the rear of this is the spacious master bedroom with ensuite. The kitchen has been extended into a large family living/dining room with a lofted ceiling, into which skylights could easily be installed, creating a generous space for the whole family. From here French doors open to the sun patio and a large apex window to the back garden. A useful utility room is off the kitchen.
Upstairs are two large dormer rooms and a family bathroom. These are very useable spaces.
The heating system here was upgraded in 2015 with gas fired central heating fitted with remote Climote zone control and TRV valves on all radiators. When combined with the double glazed windows and dry-lining insulation it earns this property a decent C3 BER rating.
This lovely house is conveniently located a couple of minutes' walk from a wide variety of shops and restaurants. The flagship outlet for Dunnes Stores Cornelscourt is located just up the road, There is a wide choice of highly respected schools in the area, including St Bridget's National School and Loreto Foxrock. Sporting facilities nearby include Foxrock Golf Club, Leopardstown Racecourse, Golf Centre and Westwood Tennis and Gym, Kilmacud Crokes GAA Club and Cabinteely F.C. Soccer Club. The 110 acre Park in Cabinteely is a popular location for walking or running. It has a superb children's playground and a popular coffee shop
There is a superb bus service from here to UCD and City Centre along the N11 Quick Bus Corridor (QBC). The Carrickmines LUAS station is just at the top of Cornelscourt Hill. The M50 is easily accessible but well out of earshot!
The gardens here are peaceful and quiet, giving plenty of space to further extend the property if so wished. At the top of the driveway there is access to a small sliver of land belonging to the house next door, as noted on the site plan. The contract for sale will not include this section.
Viewing is highly recommended.
