Upon entering the apartment, you are greeted by a spacious and welcoming entrance hallway with two storage presses. Straight ahead of you is a door to the generous kitchen-dining room and to your left is a door to the main living space. These two rooms interconnect via double doors, giving a lovely open-plan feel - while still maintaining some distinction between the two rooms. Both these areas are flooded with natural light, thanks to the large windows that offer views of the communal gardens in the heart of this development. These spaces are perfect for entertaining, with ample room for a dining table and a comfortable seating area. The shrubs outside the windows currently provide a certain degree of privacy - but it may be possible to get these trimmed back upon request- and privacy provided by modern day-night zebra blinds instead.
The kitchen is fully fitted with plenty of countertop space and the full range of appliances including a fridge-freezer, dishwasher and a washing machine.
The two bedrooms are both well-proportioned and feature spacious built-in wardrobes. The master bedroom opens to a partially enclosed patio/balcony area.
The bathroom has a WC, WHB and a Triton electric shower. It gets natural light and ventilation from the frosted glass window.
This apartment benefits from ample storage space, with several closets and cupboards throughout the property. It has electric heating.
It comes with a designated parking space right beside the door. There are also additional visitor parking spaces and a bike shed.
Woodview Court is a small mature development of just 33 apartments, most of which are owner-occupied. It is situated beside the historic St. Brigid`s Church which was likely founded from St. Brigid`s Monastery in Kildare in the 9th century. In 1781 a Rathdown slab with concentric circular markings, thought to be associated with Vikings who converted to Christianity in the local DunLaoghaire-Rathdown area, was found in the church grounds - confirming it`s Celtic Christian authenticity.
Located in the sought-after area of Stillorgan, this apartment is within easy reach of a range of amenities, including shops, restaurants, pubs, and a selection of supermarkets. The new Stillorgan library is under construction. Stillorgan Shopping Centre, in the heart of Stillorgan Village, is less than 10 minutes walk from the apartment.
The rear entrance to Glenalbyn Sports Centre is literally just around the corner. This is home to Kilmacud Crokes GAA Club, Glenalbyn Tennis Club, Kilmacs Bar, a Gym, a Snooker Club,a Montessori School, summer multi-sports camps, the friendly Village Cafe, and a range of function and meeting rooms hosting among other things Yoga, Art and Dance classes, a Mans Shed, a Bridge Club and a Church. The Glenalbyn swimming pool was closed quite a few years ago. Plans for rebuilding it as a modern facility are at the preliminary design stage with DunLaoghaire-Rathdown county council. The recent success of Daniel Wiffen and Mona McSharry at the Olympics may help provide fresh impetus for this project.
The area is well-served by public transport, with frequent busses along the QBC providing quick and easy access to UCD and Dublin city centre. Pedestrian lights provide safe crossing from the outbound bus stop. There are also east-west busses from the village centre to DunLaoghaire, IADT and Tallaght
Overall, this apartment offers a fantastic opportunity to own a lovely open home in a desirable location. It would make an ideal purchase for first-time buyers, people downsizing in the area, or those looking for a secure investment property in a quiet and convenient location for sons or daughters going to college nearby.
