5 bedroom house

A hugely attractive five bedroom family home extending to approx. 213 sq. m / 2,292 sq. ft. over two floors with the addition of a sizeable attic room (approx. 54 sq. m / 590 sq. ft.)

Well set back from the road behind a low brick wall and landscaped front garden with ample off street parking, the well-proportioned accommodation comprises an entrance porch opening into the staircase hall to the left of which is a cosy tv room / study overlooking the front garden with a guest WC adjacent. To the right is a large living room with bow window and feature fireplace interconnecting via double doors through to a dining room overlooking the back garden. The dining room in turn leads through to the contemporary, recently fitted eat-in kitchen with centre island and a range of high quality appliances - with French doors opening onto the garden.

This deceptively spacious home benefits from five good-sized bedrooms on the first floor, all with fitted wardrobes. The sizeable main bedroom has a well-appointed en-suite shower room while a family bathroom and hot press completes the first-floor accommodation. From the first floor landing, the staircase contunues up to the expansive converted attic rooms providing an abundance of additional space. Laid out as two rooms, each with a velux window, this space could be further enhanced (subject to planning permission).

No. 20 is a highly attractive detached family home that has benefited from some recent upgrades to include an air to water heat pump and a newly fitted kitchen. The incoming owner will undoubtedly make further improvements in time, but the property can be comfortably occupied immediately.

The low maintenance rear garden is easterly facing laid out in patio, a cobble lock path and gravel bordered by mature planting and shrubbery. The exceptionally private garden also has the added benefit of a sizeable brick-built garden shed - which could be converted to a home office. Finally, there are gated side passages either side of the house.

Ardilea is a well sought after mature residential enclave. Ideally located close to Deer Park, a lovely, landscaped parkland providing excellent recreational facilities including a tennis club, playground and delightful walking areas in which to enjoy the elevated views over Dublin Bay & city. Stillorgan, Blackrock & Dundrum are all within easy reach and local amenities of Mount Merrion village are within easy walking distance.

There is an extensive & excellent range of local schools within walking and cycling distance, to include; Scoil San Treasa, Mount Anville Primary/Secondary, Colaiste Iosagain, Colaiste Eoin, Our Lady's Grove, Oatlands College & St. Kilian's, to name just a few. UCD is on your doorstep with excellent walking / running / cycling routes. There are bus routes nearby on Roebuck Road, Fosters Avenue & the QBC is available on the N11 with the M50 within minutes' drive.
