Description
Sherry FitzGerald is delighted to present a wonderful opportunity to acquire a substantial red brick period family home on Rathfarnham's premier road, Willbrook Road, right in the heart of the hustle and bustle of village life.
Set on a winding residential road just two minutes from Rathfarnham Village and a short stroll from wonderful parks, number 16 was built by the Walker family in 1925 and exhibits all the style and spaciousness of the period, coupled with wonderful gardens both front and rear, ideal for growing families.
The current owners have upgraded this fabulous home whilst retaining many of its period features. Their clever combination of both original and new features have made this a truly enviable home.
There is a great feeling of brightness and space in this substantial residence with two formal reception rooms and a kitchen and dining room to the rear with a utility room off the kitchen. Upstairs there are 3 fine bedrooms, bathroom ensuite and a modern family bathroom.
The large front garden is bordered by mature hedging. It has a pebbled driveway and a paved pathway.
There is a gated side entrance leads to the private east facing rear garden. It is mainly in lawn and has two paved patio areas.
The location needs little introduction as it is wonderfully convenient with every conceivable amenity within easy reach including St. Enda’s and Marlay and Rathfarnham Castle parks and all the shops and facilities in Rathfarnham Village and also Rathfarnham Shopping Centre. Nutgrove Shopping Centre and Dundrum Town Centre are all within a short commute, as well as numerous local and highly regarded primary and secondary schools within walking distance - perfect for the growing family. Public transport is also extremely well catered for and with the M50 road network and LUAS within a short drive and numerous bus routes on the doorstep.
For those looking for a spacious period home with every amenity on the doorstep - the search stops here!
