BLACKROCK €1.325mIN TERMS of addresses, Anglesea Avenue is one of Blackrock village's best kept secrets. Located off Carysfort Avenue, it forms part of the route that connects Carysfort to Mount Merrion Avenue. This is old Blackrock, with the village minutes' away on foot.
It's six years since a property on this avenue, an extremely private road with a mix of housing stock, came to the market. Number six, a double bay-fronted 1930s house with three bedrooms, is one of the newer properties.
It is for sale by private treaty through Sherry FitzGerald for €1.325 million.
The well laid out 131sq m (1,415sq ft) house was renovated by the present owners four years ago and the style is country chic. Period features include interconnecting doors between the front and back reception rooms and all the ground floor doors.
A Canadian maple floor adds warmth to the hall. The rest of the ground floor is open plan, laid out in a U-shape around the hall. The two reception rooms have matching open fireplaces.
The back room leads to the dining/ kitchen area overlooking a mature and private garden.
French doors lead from the diningroom onto a roomy raised south-west facing deck.
The rest of the garden is lawned with a mature apple tree.
The teak-topped kitchen has a Britannia six-hob, double oven and the property's original range and open fire. Upstairs there are three bedrooms.
The main is at the front and has a shower en suite. The third bedroom is presently a nursery but is big enough to house a small double bed.
