Description
An exceptionally attractive semi-detached family home, ideally situated on the sunny side of one of Monkstown's most popular roads, boasting an immensely private sunny west facing rear garden of approx. 29m (95ft). Richmond Avenue is located within a short stroll of Monkstown Village with its vast array of amenities, as well as the DART Station and coastline with its popular sea swimming and lovely coastal walks.
13 Richmond Avenue is approached by a pillared entrance opening onto a wide Indian sandstone driveway providing excellent off-street parking with cobble bordered gravel flower beds, with mature planting. Gated side access from here leads to the sunny west facing rear garden. Internally a double stained-glass door opens into a welcoming reception hall with high-ceilings, original picture rail and understairs storage. To the left is a living room with a limestone fireplace with slate insert and hearth with gas effect fire and a bay window overlooking the front. To the rear is a dining room overlooking and opening into the sunny rear garden. A kitchen/breakfast room to the rear has an arch to utility room with access to the rear garden. A family room/home office overlooking the front completes the accommodation at this level. At first floor level off a bright landing with Stira to attic are four well-proportioned bedrooms all with excellent wardrobe provisions and the bedroom to the front with a lovely bright bay window. A separate shower room and WC complete the internal accommodation.
The mature rear garden offers an enviable sunny west facing aspect, is immensely private and not overlooked in anyway. It is laid out mainly in lawn bordered by an abundance of mature planting, shrubbery and trees all measuring approx. 29m (95ft) in length. The garden avails of an outhouse with two garden stores and the original external WC. To the rear is a block-built garden shed.
This impressive home enjoys a mature setting on this hugely popular road within minutes of all the amenities that Monkstown Village has to offer to include boutique shops, bars, cafes and highly regarded restaurants. Recreational and leisure facilities are excellent with a range of sporting clubs close by as well as Seapoint bathing place and the coastal walks along the seafront to both Blackrock Village and Dun Laoghaire Town Centre. There are several highly regarded schools close by including CBC Monkstown, Rockford Manor, Blackrock College, Loreto Foxrock, Newpark, Scoil Lorcain and Carysfort National school to name but a few.
