Goatstown/€1.295m: It's all about the garden at 10 Roebuck Park, a pretty four-bedroom terraced house in a quiet gated development off Larchfield Park in Goatstown, Dublin 14 where it is easy to imagine spending long summer evenings on the terrace.
Sherry FitzGerald is asking €1.295 million for the four-bedroom house built around 11 years ago and greatly enhanced by its owners. The development has a mix of detached and semi-detached houses and apartments built around communal grounds. Number 10 is part of a terrace of three-storey houses, each of which has parking for two cars and steps leading down to a private front garden. A porch gives shelter to the front door with its glazed panels allowing light into the timber floored hallway. It's a good-sized house with 177sq m (1,900sq ft) that includes plenty of reception space and a main bedroom that was originally two rooms under the eaves.
The hallway leads to a spacious livingroom which, unusually, has French doors opening onto the front garden. An archway opens through to a dining area which in turn opens to the maple floored family room which has access both to the garden and the airy kitchen with it handsome timber and stainless steel design. Integrated appliances are to be included in the sale. An adjoining utility room also has a door to the garden.
The first floor has a big landing leading to three bedrooms, one of which is en suite, and to the large family bathroom. The top floor is given over to the main bedroom, a large room with excellent storage, and a marble tiled en suite shower room. Roebuck Park is in an excellent catchment area for schools and for UCD while the Dundrum Town Centre is within easy reach
