PRIME DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY FOR A GRAND FAMILY HOME OR IN-FILL SITE
"Majella" presents a fantastic opportunity to create an impressive family home, or a new home on an impressive and highly-accessible corner site. Situated at the corner of Newtownpark Avenue and the entrance to the Ardagh Estate, the property is in a prized location close to the heart of Blackrock and also neighbouring Foxrock, plus with excellent access to the rest of Dublin.
The property consists of a four-bed detached dormer bungalow, currently extending to approx. 160 sqm net internal area over two-storeys, and sited on an approx. 0.23 acre (933 sqm) corner site.
The property has current road access from Newtownpark Avenue, but also extensive road frontage (approx. 22 metres) to a quieter side road, Ardagh Drive. Newtownpark Avenue brings you directly down to Blackrock, passing excellent local schools such as Newpark Academy and All Saints NS, while Ardagh Drive is a convenient back-route into Carysfort Avenue, taking you to Blackrock or Stillorgan, near schools such as Carysfort NS and UCD Smurfit Campus. Blackrock overall is famous for several excellent local schools including Blackrock College, Sion Hill and with also Loreto Girls and St. Patricks NS nearby in Foxrock.
The current house is a typical two-storey detached house, with part dormer style second floor. Upstairs consists of three bedrooms, main bathroom and extensive attic space. Downstairs includes an additional bedroom, front-facing living room and large rear living room overlooking the gardens. An additional extension was later added, consisting of a large 22.sqm kitchen and 22sqm rear storage shed/garage, with WC. The house has oil fired boiler and some additional electric heating, plus double glazing.
Coming outside, the garden wraps around the entire house on three sides. An extensive front garden provides plentiful off-street parking and mature borders protecting the house from the road. To the rear, the garden faces West and North, bringing ample sun into the property, especially in the afternoon. The garden extends approx. 10meters from the back of the house, and approx. 27metres across at the back fence. Overall, we estimate the size to be approx. 0.23 acres (933 sqM).
Development Potential - The original house is in great aesthetic and structural condition but could benefit from modernisation and tactful extensions to make it a tasteful modern home. Alternatively, there is the opportunity to either create a much larger single family home, commensurate with similar grand homes in the neighbourhood.
Additionally, with potential side access from Ardagh Drive, there would be the approximate space to add at least 2 additional houses, on the rear and/or side gardens, especially if the existing side extensions were removed and a more appropriate layout of the original house was designed.
