Description

This B3 BER rated modern mid-terrace home offers excellent potential to extend and enjoys a great location just over a mile from the centre Rathnew village and just a short drive from Wicklow town. Completed in 2006, ground floor accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall and a good-sized living room at the front of the house, while to the rear is a large open-pan kitchen-dining overlooking the back garden. There is also a guest bathroom off the hallway. On the first floor, stairs from the hallway connect to an L-shaped landing, which in turn leads on to three bedrooms, including the main bedroom (ensuite) overlooking the back garden and two bedrooms overlooking the front garden. Upstairs accommodation is completed by a family bathroom, hot press off the landing and a partially floored attic accessed from the landing by a pull-down ladder. Both upstairs bathrooms were remodelled in 2022, are finished to a high standard and feature high quality contemporary fixtures, fittings and sanitary ware. Outside, there are low maintenance gardens to the front and rear, including a front driveway providing off-street parking for two cars, while the back garden includes a garden shed, sun patio and barbecue station with enclosed timber storage. The property also has tremendous potential to create additional living space by converting the attic and/or extending the existing kitchen/dining into the back garden. While subject to planning, such works have already been completed by neighbouring home-owners. Call us today to arrange a viewing.
