Description
We are delighted to present no 3 Whites Gate, Whites Road, Castleknock to the market. Only one property has come to the market in the last 10 years in this prestigious enclave on the edge of the Phoenix Park, built by Menolly Homes. So this represents a fantastic opportunity to buy the former show house, which presents in immaculate condition throughout.
This is a substantial and beautiful "Country Manor" red brick home with granite detail, occupying 3 floors, with a superb family friendly layout and a very generous 311 sq. m. 3348 sq. ft. approx. of accommodation. Taller ceiling height throughout this home will impress. In brief, it comprises of 5 reception rooms, 3 being interconnecting. There is a beautifully crafted hand painted John Daly kitchen, 5 double bedrooms, 3 being ensuite and 2 with dressing rooms. The versatility in its layout is excellent with superb space to facilitate a growing family and a home office arrangement. Offstreet parking in the private double driveway accommodates 2 cars. A most private landscaped rear garden with a versatile garden room will appeal.
Garden: To the front, a Tobermore cobble lock double driveway allows parking for 2 cars. Raised beds to the side containing red robin, choisya and a copper beech hedge have matured beautifully. To the rear, the garden is split level with a paved Manor Stone sandstone patio, steps flanked with steel railings that rise up to an artificial lawn and a decked patio area with a brick wall which has been covered in Shiplap. Al fresco dining and entertaining are well catered for with an outside tap, several electrical sockets and a connection for a gas barbeque or outdoor patio heater. The pretty garden room, is suited to any number of uses and is an excellent addition to this home.
Whites Gate is enviably situated adjacent to the Phoenix Park, within a few minutes walk of Castleknock village and its wealth of amenities. Mount Sackville is only 1.4km away and Castleknock College is just at the end of the road. There are several excellent golf courses in the vicinity such as Castleknock Golf & Country Club and Luttrellstown Castle Golf & Country Club to name but a few. Whites Gate is located approx. 7km from Dublin City Centre and 16km from Dublin Airport.
