Description
No. 8 Killester Avenue is a very charming and special three bedroomed semi-detached residence with the most beautiful, landscaped gardens to the front and rear. Positioned in a mature location on the corner of Killester Avenue and Kilbride Road, this elegant home is within minutes of Killester Village with a great selection of shops and only a short 5 minutes walk of the DART Station.
Built circa 1932, this wonderful property was renovated in 2015 to include a stylish kitchen extension with picture windows overlooking the lush garden, a downstairs toilet, custom-made double-glazed windows and new doors, a full rewire, installation of a gas combi boiler and internal insulation. The design of the property cleverly maximizes the use of space, it extends to approximately 91sq.m (980sq.ft) and the accommodation comprises a tiled entrance porch leading to the welcoming hallway, off the hall is the recently fitted guest WC. To the front of the property is a spacious living room with feature fireplace and bay window overlooking the private and vibrant front garden. To the rear is the bright, open plan kitchen/dining/family room with access to generous understairs storage. The stylish integrated kitchen is complimented by luxurious Silestone worktops and backsplash and has excellent custom-made storage with patio doors out to the patio and stunning west facing garden. Upstairs there are three bedrooms (two doubles and a single) all with built in wardrobes and storage and a separate shower room.
Gardens
The beautifully maintained and glorious gardens are stocked with an abundance of trees, shrubs and specimen plants adding fantastic colour and interest. The rear garden has a sunny west facing orientation and is approximately 84 feet long with great potential to extend further (subject to planning permission guidelines) and still maintain a good sized garden. A large patio area is ideal for dining during the summer months whilst enjoying the view of the lawned garden which is bordered by colourful plant beds. There is a pedestrian side entrance for easy access to the back of the house and a shed for secure additional storage.
Location
Ideally positioned next to Killester Village, you are spoilt for choice with an array of shops and salons and within short walking distance of excellent primary and secondary schools including Educate Together on Collins Avenue. The ever-popular St Anne's Park is on your doorstep as are stunning coastal walks along Clontarf's promenade. Sporting enthusiasts can enjoy many recreational facilities and sports clubs including GAA, Clontarf Rugby & Cricket Club, a selection of golf clubs and water sports at Dollymount Strand. Commuting further afield is also easily accessible with both the M50 and the M1 motorways located very close by, Dublin airport is a short 20 minutes' drive and Dublin City is a close 4 kms distance away. The area is very well serviced by public transport with frequent bus routes on the Howth Road and the Killester DART is within 350 metres providing swift access to the city centre and beyond. Locations really don't come more central or family friendly!
