CABINTEELY - €1.65M:A DOUBLE-FRONTED detached four-bedroom house set in the
leafy surrounds of Carraig Glen, a small development off Brennanstown Road in Cabinteely, is for sale through Lisney with an asking price of €1.65 million.
The newly built house has a frontage to fit in with the more established houses here, but once inside it is an entirely different story.
There are two surprises, the first being a huge basement level fitted out as a home cinema and the second a stunning kitchen space.
With 326sq m (3,512sq ft) of space, the main emphasis is on the living areas at hall level.
The space is divided into a smart hall with long livingroom to the right, a square study to the left and the entire back width of the house opening into a streamlined kitchen/dining/livingroom with creamy travertine flooring, a wall of glass concertina doors and double height glass atrium above. Light pours into the space from the south-facing patio garden and the whole look is of clean, pure lines of perfect perspective.
The Poggenpohl kitchen has pale gloss units fronted by a stylish white breakfast bar.
A utility room, also with Poggenpohl units as well as the alarm and central vacuuming system, opens off the kitchen. At the other end is an equally stylish seating area with contemporary gas fire and white corner sofa.
There are walnut sliding doors into the sittingroom which has a limestone fireplace and sash window to the front. Across the hall the study is a nice square room with walnut flooring, gas fire and window to the front.
A glass balustraded staircase leads up to the first floor and down to the cinema room. The main bedroom suite is a large room, stretching from front-to-back of the house, with high vaulted ceiling and skylight, large en suite and dressingroom with opaque glass wardrobes. Of the other three bedrooms, two are good doubles, one with an en suite, while the last bedroom is smaller.
A feature of the house is the number of flat screen televisions (including in two bathrooms so you can gaze while you soak) and the multi-room sound system.
Outside, a gravelled front garden gives off-street car-parking, while at the back the width of the house is paved in granite slabs with raised Liscannor-faced bed planted with grouped bamboos.
