Description

This 2 bed Drimnagh home is a project, with a capital P. But the good news is that, as it has been vacant for 2 years it could easily be in line for the ‘vacant home’ grants that are available to assist with the renovation. Despite the dilapidated condition, it ticks a lot of boxes. The area is not just convenient and mature, it is among the areas considered ‘up and coming’ in the property world. The home has been in the ownership of one family since the1950s, and is located in an area where new builds will typically be apartments, making family homes a very attractive proposition. EXPLORE INSIDE The ground floor comprises two reception rooms, a shower room and a kitchen addition, dating from the 1980’s. Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a bathroom. The entire home is in need of refurbishment, with the exception of the heating system which is relatively newly installed. EXPLORE OUTSIDE The rear garden is in need of work, including demolition or repair of some derelict outbuildings. It is west facing, which offers good summer sun and the opportunity to develop a ‘room outside’. To the front there is a stepped path and a garden. Many of the neighbours have created off street parking, this would probably be doable at no 52, subject to PP. The location is super. It is about a 10 minute walk to the nearest Red Line Luas stop, something that immediately adds value to a property. If Cycling is your thing, 15 minutes will take you into Stephen’s Green. Kimmage and Harold’s Cross are both very close by (Super Valu and the shops at Sundrive are less than a ten minute spin). Nearby are three major hospitals – James’s, The Coombe and the Children’s Hospital, bringing thousands of jobs to the area. The old Crumlin Shopping Centre, which is just down the road, is due to be redeveloped by Dunnes Stores. Our Lady of Good Counsel Boys and Girls National Schools are located nearby, only minutes walk away. Crumlin and Drimnagh are well served with parks, the nearby Swan Crumlin Leisure Centre includes a swimming pool. THE BOTTOM LINE It will take some time and effort, but this solid home will be reimagined as a family home for the future.
