87 Carrickmount Avenue, Rathfarnham, Dublin 14, D14 YX36

This home has been beautifully modernized by the current owners, with thoughtful design throughout. It is presented in turnkey condition.

As well as the four bedrooms there is a block built garden shed with a fibre broadband connection which would make an excellent work space - outside the main home.

This home has a delightful open-plan kitchen/dining room with a new shaker style kitchen, handy larder, breakfast bar and bright food preparation area. The white marble counter -tops and splashback contrast beautifully with the kitchen cabinets. Throughout the ground floor there is high quality 30 year water resistant, wood laminate flooring.

Maintaining the open-plan theme the door from the sitting room has been widened to create a larger opening connecting these two spaces. The original fireplace in the sitting room has been removed and instead there is an opening with a flue, prepared for a solid fuel stove.

This is a warm and energy efficient home with insulated walls and attic, new GFCH with combi boiler and Hive controls. It has been rewired and replumbed by the current owners, including new electrical sockets - some with USB charging ports.

Upstairs are four bedrooms, with a lovely modern master ensuite. The hot press has been converted to a wardrobe for one of the bedrooms. The space over the stairs has been fitted out as a home office with fitted desk and shelving. If this is needed as a 4th bedroom, these could be removed to fit the head of a single bed. From the landing a retractable ladder leads to the spacious attic with an apex height over 6ft.

Outside there is a paved front garden with off-street parking for two or three cars, and a pretty planted area with two palm trees. A covered side passage leads to the back garden 75ft long, with a sunny patio area. This is open to the south and gets excellent sunlight. It is quite private and not overlooked.

At the bottom of the garden, the spacious block built shed, with pitched roof and window, has been fitted with electrical, plumbing, heating and broadband connections. It is currently in use as a home gym, but could make a very useful home office.

There is a utility shed near the side passage which houses the boiler for the GFCH. This has electrical outlets and plumbing connections for a washing machine, dryer and upright freezer.

This property is conveniently located close to Nutgrove Shopping Centre, Office Park and Retail Park - with an excellent range of shopping, eating and leisure options. It is just 20 minutes walk from Dundrum Town Centre and the LUAS in Dundrum.

This is an excellent family area with an abundance of highly regarded preschools, primary and secondary schools, and a direct bus route to UCD. Leisure options abound with Gym Plus, St. Enda's Park, Marley Park, Ballinteer St. John's GAA, Leicester Celtic FC and Meadowbrook Leisure Centre all easily accessible.

Early viewing is highly recommended.
