Final phase of fine infill scheme near city and the sea

Clontarf: from €399,000The MKN Property Group is set to continue its run of successes today when it launches the final phase of houses and apartments at 118 Howth Road in Clontarf, Dublin 3.

Agents Hooke & MacDonald will be taking bookings for six three-storey, three-bedroom houses costing from €635,000 and a one-bedroom gate-lodge at €399,000.

There are also a small number of two-bedroom apartments on sale in Auburn from €430,000 and €555,000, depending on sizes which range from 63-100sq m (680-1,075sq ft). There are a few three-bedroom atrium houses with 160.7sq m (1,730sq ft) priced from €887,500. Car -parking is included.

There are advantages in buying into an infill scheme such as this one; the relatively small number of homes are in a mature setting within easy reach of the seafront and city centre. The development is named after the large period house on the site, Auburn, which was the home of Mr and Mrs Denis Guiney, owners of Clerys department store.

The six houses now being released have a floor area of 114.5sq m (1,145sq ft) including a livingroom on the ground floor with double doors into a kitchen and dining area. There is an impressive Alno German kitchen with dark granite worktops and splashbacks and a range of stainless steel integrated electrical appliances. At first floor level there are two double bedrooms along with the main bathroom. The top floor is given over to a fine main bedroom with en suite.

Bathrooms have been completed to a high standard with an attractive Shires Remo range of sanitary ware. The built-in ivory Shaker-style wardrobes in the bedrooms were supplied by Cawleys. The impressive fit-out of the houses includes oak doors, wiring for home audio visual system and gas central heating.
