Description

' Varradene' is a substantial and immensely appealing, double fronted, four bedroomed semi-detached family home enjoying a mature, well established residential location. With a wealth of bright, carefully proportioned and versatile family sized accommodation, a great rear garden, and a practical side entrance, valuable off street parking in the cobble lock driveway accommodates a number of cars. Indeed should one so wish, the study / home office on the ground floor could be used as a 5th bedroom. Its' higher than average ceiling heights ( c 2.7m on the ground floor and c 2.55m on the first floor of the original house) add to it's wonderful sense of space and light. With a hugely generous rear garden and a large attic, ample opportunity and scope exists to extend this lovely home still further if desired ( StoPP). In the proud ownership of the same family for a long number of years, the lovingly maintained original house has been extended to the rear and now houses the kitchen. The original garage now comprises a study/ home office / playroom or as above a possible 5th bedroom and a guest wc, over which has been built a bedroom. Set out over two floors, the welcoming entrance porch and hallway with guest cloakroom leads to a particularly spacious dual aspect, reception room extending from front to back of the original house. Previously two separate rooms, a fireplace in the front section of the room makes for a cosy sitting area and with a door to the garden, the rear section of the room offers much flexibility of use. This room, could of course be restored to provide separate / interconnecting reception rooms. The breakfast room which enjoys access from both the hall and the main reception room leads to the kitchen which in turn leads to the lovely rear garden. The study/ home office benefits from a private door via the side passage and so lends itself to easy access. On the first floor, the two original front bedrooms now comprise the master bedroom and ensuite which was recently refitted. Two further large double bedrooms and a generous single bedroom along with a bathroom and separate wc make up the first floor. A large attic ( floored and with Stira access) provides an opportunity for conversion ( StoPP) . A practical gated side entrance leads to the substantial well enclosed rear garden which is sheltered by magnificent mature trees providing an amazingly quiet and private oasis of calm. Benefitting from an exceptionally private aspect, this super family sized rear garden with its expansive lawn could easily provide a new owner with ample opportunity to further extend ( StoPP). 'Varradene' enjoys an enviable location with a vast selection of educational, recreational and shopping amenities nearby. Neighbourhood shops are just a few minutes stroll on Bird Avenue/ Dundrum Road. Dundrum Town Centre, Stillorgan SC and the Beacon SC are easily accessible. Renowned for some of Dublin's best and most highly regarded schools and colleges - those within easy reach include UCD, Our Lady’s Grove, Goatstown Educate Together, Eurocampus ( St. Killians German and Lycee Francais International French schools) , Alexandra College, Muckross Park, Mount Anville, Sandford National, Sandford Park and Gonzaga.

Ranelagh, Donnybrook, Rathmines and Rathgar are all within an easy commute as indeed are Stillorgan and Sandyford Business / Office Parks. A wonderful selection of parks, many with children's playgrounds abound in the area - Airfield, Palmerston Park, Bushy Park, the lush leafy 32 acres of Deer Park and the walkways of the Dodder Linear Park make this a truly enviable location. The outstanding Marlay Park encompassing the historic 18th Century Marlay House, Demesne and Regency Walled Garden which also offers super kids playgrounds, cycling / walking trails, and various sports facilities including tennis courts, football pitches and cricket grounds is within easy reach.
