Located in a mature residential development within easy walking distance of Kilcoole village centre, this inviting three-bedroomed home comes to the market with the added bonus of a separate outbuilding providing generous and flexible living space in addition to that of the main house.
For those with an eye to potential, there’s also the opportunity (subject to planning regulation) to follow the example of neighbouring homeowners by extending to the rear of the house.
At the hub of the home is a large open-plan kitchen/dining room extending across the full width of the house, with fitted kitchen units with integrated appliances and double glass sliding doors opening directly onto the back garden.
To the front of the house and overlooking the front garden is a large living room, with fireplace featuring a polished marble mantelpiece with flame-effect electric fire.
A welcoming entrance hall, with composite front door and understair storage, completes downstairs accommodation.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms, including the main overlooking the back garden, with wardrobe, while Bedrooms 2 and 3 overlook the front garden. There is also a landing with family bathroom and hot press off, and access to the attic via a pull down ladder.
Back downstairs, the double glass doors from the kitchen/dining room lead out to a lawned back garden, at the far end of which is that outbuilding. Currently in use as a home office and gym, this versatile and spacious living area (not included in the floor area of the main house) could serve equally for a variety of purposes such a studio, craft room, teenagers’ den, games room or children’s playroom.
At the front, the property has a low-maintenance lawned garden with a driveway providing off-street parking for two cars.
The current owner has had various improvements made to the property, including warmboarding, replastering previously stippled ceilings to a smooth finish and repainting all rooms.
