Good value can still be found for those willing to live a short run from Dublin, as a substantial four-bedroom home in Dunshaughlin village, Co Meath, proves.
Douglas Newman Good is handling the sale of 5 Supple Park by private treaty, with a price expected to be in excess of £300,000 (#380,921).
This home has many exceptional features, including a striking open-plan split-level lounge/diningroom, hand-crafted wooden fireplaces, a conservatory with tiled floors and a spacious family room.
The house sits in a quiet cul-de-sac development and is in showhouse condition throughout. The large 22 feet by 12 feet kitchen/ breakfastroom is fully fitted with lime oak wall and floor units and a tiled floor with partly tiled walls. Double patio doors lead to the sunny rear garden and patio. There is also a utility room.
The lounge/diningroom is an eye-catching feature. It has ceiling cornices, maple flooring and double doors opening into the tiled conservatory. There is a separate family room, again with maple flooring and feature fireplace, plus a bay window.
The master bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and is en suite with fully tiled walls and a Triton shower unit. All the other bedrooms have built-in wardrobes.
The gardens are fully landscaped and the rear garden is walled. The large garage can double as a workshop.
The home enjoys all the amenities of Dunshaughlin village, with its shops, pubs and easy access to the countryside. Yet it is a relatively short 30 to 40-minute run into the city for those willing to commute.
