On a 0.35-acre site with its original garage, Ferndown provides plenty of options for prospective buyers
Room to extend at detached four-bed on Glenageary ’s Marlborough Road for €2.25mHow can my house generate an income now that I’m living in a nursing home?
Currently extending to 192sq m plus an additional 15sq m in the garage – bringing the total area to 208sq m – the property has four bedrooms upstairs including a good-sized principal bedroom with the benefit of an en suite. Downstairs, a livingroom and study flank the front hall, with a sittingroom to the rear, while the central hub of the home is a large kitchen and dining area dating from 2012. Here a light-filled extension – thanks to lots of Velux in a vaulted ceiling – houses the dining space, where a wall of glazing brings plenty of light in and gives views to the garden. A good-sized utility with access to the garage and a loo also lie at this level.
While the home will need updating, its Ber is D2, and like most houses on this stretch of south County Dublin coastline it will be a home for life, as most of these trophy homes only come to the market when children have flown the nest.The property lies on a considerable 0.35 of an acre so has lots of potential to expand, subject to planning
Its grounds are really of interest and a quick search on Google Earth will give an indication as to what the neighbours have done. Most of the interwar houses measured about 120sq m initially, but some have since trebled in size thanks to their generous sites.
