DUBLIN 6W/€1.95M:TWO LARGE family homes in a great 6W location come to the market this week. Numbers 28 and 30 Fortfield Grove are in a small upscale scheme at Fortfield Grove, adjacent to Fortfield Square off Fortfield Road in Terenure.
Both schemes are being developed by Jackie Green Construction and Sherry FitzGerald New Homes is handling sales.
Fortfield Grove was first launched in October 2006 and two of the four houses in the cul-de-sac scheme sold. One house is now occupied. Now Sherry FitzGerald is relaunching the two remaining houses and prices have been pared back significantly. The five-bedroom detached houses now cost €1.95 million, compared to €2.8 million in 2006 - a 30 per cent drop of €850,000.
The 232sq m (2,500sq ft) houses are designed for family living. They have a dramatic three-storey entrance hallway. Off this is a formal drawingroom with a limestone fireplace. Double doors lead to the diningroom which has French doors opening into landscaped gardens.
Much of the living will be done in the spacious family kitchen/living area, which spans almost the full width of the house. This room has a bright kitchen area, a vaulted ceiling with skylight and lots of glazing. There is also a family room, utility room, toilet and cloakroom downstairs.
There is an en suite guest bedroom and three bedrooms on the first floor; the main bedroom is on the second floor. Both this and the guest bedroom downstairs have triangular windows giving lots of light. There are good private rear gardens and off-street parking.
28 & 30 Fortfield Grove, Terenure, Dublin 6W
