Description
View to appreciate this attractive detached property of approx. 198 sq.m. (2,131sq.ft.) approx. which has been extended and remodelled over the years to suit a family’s changing needs. Presented in excellent decorative order throughout with a stylish contemporary interior No. 14, enjoys an unparalleled sense of seclusion both inside and outside with professionally landscaped front and rear gardens.
No 14, nestled within Flemingstown Park, a quiet friendly, cul de sac just off the Lower Churchtown Road, was built in a 1960’s development comprising twenty five detached bungalows. Home to the same family since the mid 1980’s, it will be of particular appeal either to those seeking a more manageable home, or, especially given the potential to extend into the large roof space ( subject to P.P.), to an expanding family.
A stroll around Flemingstown Park will inspire confidence in the area with a superb selection of high-end newly-renovated contemporary homes. There is an enviable range of facilities immediately at hand with excellent local shopping at Churchtown, with the property also being just minutes from Dundrum Town Centre, and close to Rathgar, Milltown and Rathfarnham. The by-pass roads make the M50 highly accessible, while a brief, leafy walk down to the nearby LUAS makes light work of the short commute to the city centre and beyond. Leisure facilities abound with the Overend Airfield Estate, the parklands of Orwell, Dartry and Bushy at hand, not forgetting two of Dublin’s most prestigious golf clubs – Milltown and The Castle. There is a comprehensive selection of well-established schools nearby, and UCD Belfield is only a short cycle away. Accommodation
