Well-maintained family home in a solid suburb for £475,000

A solid family home at 85 Lower Churchtown Road, Dublin 14 is for sale by private treaty for £475,000 (€603,250) through Sherry FitzGerald.

The house has four bedrooms, roomy living accommodation and a good sized garden and will therefore appeal to growing families trading up from smaller houses.

The current owners have lived in the house for the past 16 years and have extended and continuously maintained both its exterior and interior. Only last year they added the hardwood porch and garage doors and all rooms in the house have been well decorated.

At this stretch of the road there are houses only on one side, opposite Milltown Golf Course.

The redbrick house was built in 1954 and is one of a handful of similar style houses on the road.

The hallway is wide which immediately gives the house a feeling of spaciousness. To the right are two interconnecting livingrooms. The front room has a bay window, the back room a sliding door opening out to the back garden. The kitchen has been extended to make room for an eat-in area which looks out on the garden.

Upstairs there are four bedrooms, three of which are doubles, the fourth is a small single room. As is common in houses of this vintage, the bathroom and toilet are separate. There is a guest bathroom downstairs.

The fine sized integrated garage could presumably be converted to living space if necessary.

The house is owned by a keen gardener so the gardens are well planted and expertly cared for.
