Last viewing Sat 23rd August.

Delightful family home ideally located beside Phoenix Park - with one of the few remaining pedestrian turnstile gates directly across the road - giving plenty of space to roam, walk the dog, play, run or kick a ball.

This is a freehold property with no annual service charge. It is much newer than other properties in the area having been built in 1995 at the end of a terrace of three new houses, on the site of an earlier cottage. It was extended by the current owners in 2002.

It has been meticulously maintained as a family home and is presented in immaculate condition.

Considering the narrow facade this property is remarkably spacious. The entrance hallway stretches back 7.5m, with the beautifully proportioned sitting room opening to one side and a large kitchen-dining room privately secluded to the rear. The kitchen extension is a lovely bright space with a lofted ceiling, four skylights, patio doors and a large kitchen window looking out to the sun deck surrounded by flowers in the totally private back garden. The kitchen comes fully equipped with the full range of appliances, a breakfast bar and plenty of counter space.

Upstairs are a family bathroom and three bedrooms - two doubles and a main bedroom stretching the full width of the house, with two windows and an ensuite.

The property is equipped with gas fired central heating, triple-glazed windows and wood flooring in most rooms. This includes solid French Oak flooring in the hall and sitting room, with high quality laminate flooring in the dining areas and in both double bedrooms.

It is a short walk from Cumiskey's or The Hole in the Wall, and a short commute from Dublin City centre. Served by busses 37 and N2.

It is a pleasant 30 minutes walk through Phoenix Park to the LUAS at Heuston Station.

Preschool options include Blackhorse Childcare in Springfield - 1 minute walk, without having to cross any roads and Mother Hubbards beside the shops on Nephin Road. The area is served by St. Catherine's Educate Together, St. John Bosco Junior and Senior Schools, and Stanhope Street primary schools and St. Dominic's College, St. Declan's College, St. Paul's CBS and Stanhope Street Secondary Schools.
