Description
Built c.1845, No.3 Castle Avenue is a most impressive two story over garden level family residence of 2,885 sq.ft approx.. with gracious and wonderfully light filled accommodation with a desirable 133ft west facing garden with detached garage. Nicely set back from the road on this mature tree lined road adjacent to the seafront and promenade No.3 is one on a small terrace of terraced period homes in this much sought-after location.
Approached via a flight of granite steps a front door with fanlight opens into hallway with detailed ceiling cornice work and large bathroom. Adjacent to the hallway are two fine interconnecting reception rooms with impressive ceiling height, ceiling cornice and marble fireplaces. Upstairs on the return and first floor can be found three bedrooms two with en suites. At garden level is the fourth bedroom, to the front, and lounge area opening to a striking, light filled, extended open plan kitchen / breakfast room with vaulted ceiling opening to a private west facing garden. Completing the picture is a separate utility room and guest w.c.
Clontarf needs no introduction, and this super location is hard to beat as you are spoilt for choice with an excellent selection of amenities in the area including shops, cafes, schools, Nolan's supermarket, fine restaurants, pubs, specialist boutiques and salons. Sporting enthusiasts can enjoy many recreational facilities and sports clubs including Clontarf Rugby & Cricket Club, a selection of golf clubs (including The Royal Dublin and St Anne's golf clubs), St. Anne's Park and Dollymount Strand to name but a few. Commuting further afield is also easily accessible with both the M50 and the M1 motorways located very close by, Dublin Airport is within 20 minutes' drive and Dublin City is a close 3kms distance away. The area is very well serviced by public transport and Clontarf DART station is within walking distance. Locations really do not come more central or family friendly!
Garden
To the front is a railed garden with pedestrian access which has been landscaped with ease of maintenance in mind. To the rear is a west facing garden measuring 133ft approx. in length with a large garage at the end of the garden (L33ft x 17ft approx..) with vehicular access from a private laneway. This sun-drenched garden is laid out mainly in lawn with a selection of mature shrubs and two large patio areas.
