The 25 detached houses that make up the Mount Prospect Lawns cul-de-sac were built in 1989 to a traditional redbrick style, with bay windows, designed to blend into the long-established suburban Clontarf neighbourhood.
The owners of number 22 recently gave the house a major makeover, so much so that, at the busy open viewing on Saturday morning last, a damp November day, potential buyers were asked to wear blue plastic covers for their shoes to protect the mushroom-coloured hall, stairs and landing carpet and new oak flooring. Inside, the house presents as a contemporary, smartly fitted-out and extended new home in showhouse condition.
Eat-in kitchen
There’s a comfortable livingroom to the front, and to the rear is a large eat-in kitchen with grey gloss contemporary kitchen and an island unit topped with creamy silestone countertops. To complete the modern look it is floored with large-format porcelain tiles.
A wall of triple-glazed floor-to-ceiling windows and doors overlooks the rear garden. Also on this level is a fitted utility room, understairs cloakroom and guest toilet.
Upstairs the layout was changed to give the main bedroom with its bay window and ensuite a very large walk-in wardrobe that was created by knocking through and incorporating a smaller front bedroom.
Attic conversion
There are two further double bedrooms on this level and a family bathroom; on up again, in the attic conversion, in what was clearly a good-sized roof space, is a shower room and a bright double bedroom with built-in wardrobes.
New owners will have nothing to do as everything is so newly, and smartly done.
The BER is C3 and there is a garage attached and driveway parking.
Number 22 Mount Prospect Lawns, Clontarf, with 152sq m, is for sale through Sherry FizGerald for €850,000.
