Description
Originally built in 1965 and thoughtfully extended circa 1980, the property has been meticulously maintained and significantly upgraded by its current owners, including the addition of external wall insulation (wrap) in 2019. The result is a turnkey home of immense warmth and character, while still offering excellent scope for future extension or modernisation, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Eligible purchasers may qualify for the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant of up to 50,000. This grant can contribute toward approved refurbishment works, helping reduce overall renovation costs and accelerate your plans to modernise and personalise the property. This grant is additional to various other home improvement grants on offer from SEAI.
The ground floor is particularly noteworthy, offering a rare dual-reception layout of outstanding breadth. A generous formal living room and adjoining family room are interconnected by a wide timber-framed opening, creating an impressive reception space that runs the full width of the house and overlooks both the front and rear gardens. A separate dining room previously used as a bedroom to the rear provides a quieter retreat, while the bright and well-fitted kitchen/dining with breakfast bar opens to a sitting room area. There is also a generous utility room with guest W/C and access to the rear garden, completing a highly versatile ground-floor layout that suits both family life and entertaining. Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a family shower room. The primary bedroom and the principal second bedroom each benefit from full-width built-in mirrored wardrobes, maximising both storage and the sense of light and space. A generous single bedroom completes the first-floor layout.
Balally offers an outstanding family lifestyle in one of South Dublin`s most sought-after residential locations, just minutes from Dundrum Town Centre and the Balally and Kilmacud Luas. The area is renowned for its exceptional choice of schools, including Mount Anville, St. Benildus, Wesley College, Alexandra College, and several highly regarded primary schools, while UCD and Trinity College are also easily accessible. Residents enjoy superb transport links with the Luas, multiple bus routes, and the M50 all close by. Leisure amenities are equally impressive, with nearby parks, Airfield Estate, Ticknock, the Dublin Mountains, leading sports clubs including Kilmacud Crokes and Naomh Olaf, and some of Dublin`s finest golf courses, creating the perfect balance of convenience, recreation, and family living.
