Detached dormer bunglaow with gardens on all four sides. This property sits on a site extending to approximately 0.15 acres (620 sq.m). giving enormous potential to modernize and extend it (S.P.P.) to create the home of your dreams in one of the most desirable areas of Dublin.

This home is still in it's original 1960's "as built" configuration.The floor area quoted of 132sq.m. does not include the exceptionally spacious attic which is living space in every other property of this type in Cherrygarth. This is currently accessed via a fixed ladder in one of the bedrooms, but there is plenty of room in the hall to fit a proper stairs.

The enormous living room across the front of the property is flooded with natural light from two large windows. In the evenings the fireplace made of distinctive local Dalkey stone provides a warm focal point.

The bright and spacious kitchen/breakfast room is on the south side of the property. There is plenty of room to extend this into the 5.5m wide side garden S.P.P. if desired.

On the north side of the property are two double bedrooms.

To the rear is a large main bedroom 5.2m (16ft 10iinches) long and 3.5m (11ft 4 inches) wide. The other bedroom beside this is currently used as a back lounge.

This property has double-glazed windows and has recently been rewired, Apart from that it is in close to original condition. Under the carpets there are high quality pine floorboards. These floorboards may be seen in the two back rooms,.where they have been finished and left uncovered.

The locatiion here is ideal, near the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. There is a walkway at the end of the road leading to all the amenities of Stillorgan Village. There is a great selection of highly respected schools and creche's in the immediate vicinity. The Mill House is just 5 minutes walk with Stillorgan Shopping Centre 5 minutes further.

Please note that this property backs onto Oatlands Primary School and the corner of the Beaufield Mews. The Beafield Mews site is currently for sale with full planning permission - granted by Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council under Planning Ref. D23A/0193 - for a very tasteful development of 30 high spec, low rise apartments with eight recessed penthouses on the fourth floor.. Directly over the wall from the SE corner of the garden of #11 there is planning for hedging, a bicycle shed and a stairwell with no windows. The four storey stairwell is 5,5m from the boundary (15m from the house), and the closest apartment is 10m from the boundary.The stairwell creates a solid block preventing overlooking. The roof garden is at the far end of the block - where it will have no impact on this property.
