Description

30 Saint Annes Drive is a character-filled 1930s three-bedroom semi-detached home in one of Montenotte's most established residential settings, within easy reach of St Luke's and Cork city centre. Carefully restored and upgraded by its current owners, it balances original character with the comfort needed for modern family life. The ground floor includes a welcoming entrance hall with restored terrazzo flooring, a generous bay-windowed living room, a bright sitting/dining room overlooking the garden, a separate kitchen, guest WC and rear hall. Upstairs are three genuine double bedrooms and the family bathroom - an unusually generous bedroom layout for a house of this era. Recent improvements include a new gas boiler, zoned smart heating controls and thermostatic radiator valves, upgraded timber sash windows including triple glazing, new flooring and extensive redecoration. A completely new guest WC has been created beneath the stairs and finished with Burlington sanitaryware, while the main bathroom now benefits from a newly installed, high-quality electric shower. The block-built garage roof has also been newly re-felted. These works have been undertaken with respect for the house's original fabric and distinctive 1930s details. A particular highlight is the large, private south-facing rear garden. Sheltered, exceptionally peaceful and a genuine suntrap, it is a family-ready outdoor space with a striking historic stone wall and ample room to play, entertain and garden. Saint Anne's Drive is a notably quiet residential street with very little through traffic, many young families and generous green spaces nearby. It offers the peace and privacy of country living while remaining within walking distance of the bustle of Cork city. St Luke's Cross, well-regarded primary and secondary schools, bus routes and everyday amenities are all close at hand. An award-winning butcher is located at the end of the road, with a shop selling local produce a short walk away, while health-club membership is available at the nearby Montenotte Hotel. The Northern Ring Road and Dunkettle Interchange are also within convenient reach. This is a warm, individual home with generous rooms, a superb garden and substantial recent upgrades - ready to enjoy now, with further potential for its next owners to make it their own.
