Description
Sherry FitzGerald is pleased to present to the market 81 Monkstown Avenue, a superbly spacious and extended five bedroomed family home on a large corner site, 0.2 acre approx. ideally located in the highly sought-after Monkstown area.
This large family home is wonderfully situated and bursting with potential. With a large front and rear gardens, this property offers excellent potential for refurbishment, with ample room to extend the existing accommodation or develop an already spacious family home (subject to relevant planning permission).
This fine home was built in the 1950's and the mature rear garden will no doubt appeal to those desiring bright outdoor space in a private setting. It is well proportioned and comes with a functional layout that provides a good balance of living space and generous bedroom accommodation. A welcoming entrance leads to the formal living & dining room, then through to a separate family room and finally into the kitchen/breakfast room. The property has five generous bedrooms (two large doubles), two bathrooms and two standalone WC. The expansive, secluded westerly facing rear garden (over 70 foot long), comprising a fine lawn with an attractive paved patio area off the main dining room, is ideal for al fresco dining and lazy lunches in the sun. In the front there is a 90-foot-long garden with an extensive cobbled, gated forecourt, which along with the cul de sac off street parking, can facilitate parking for multiple cars.
The location is second to none. It is only a short walk away from Monkstown Village with its range of award winning gourmet restaurants, bars, and boutique shops. It is close to a host of amenities, local shopping centres, and has excellent transport links including multiple bus routes and Salthill DART Station close by. Your exercise needs are well catered for with a 10 minute walk to the seafront and outdoor swimming at Seapoint, or with Monkstown leisure centre, Monkstown Lawn Tennis Club and Blackrock RFC also in the immediate locality. Within easy reach is an excellent selection of both primary and secondary schools including, Blackrock College, CBC Monkstown, St Andrews International School, Monkstown Educate Together NS, and Rathdown.
This is an excellent family home which must be seen to be fully appreciated. Accommodation
