A dormer bungalow with a lot of privacy

LOOKING as good as a computer generated drawing, number 14, Doire Loin is a pretty, dormer bungalow that’s as good inside, says auctioneer Colm O’Donovan.

Number 14 is on the Fenit road, one of the better locations in Tralee, he adds, and is one of a small development of houses in the Doire Loin estate, but it still comes with great privacy.

Sherry FitzGerald O’Connell give a guide price of €475,000 for the house and say it will appeal to those relocating to Tralee, or to trader-uppers in the town.

The ground floor accommodation includes an entrance porch, a lounge of 14’ x 19”, a separate dining room in Victorian style, a sunroom and a kitchen with larder as well as utility. The family room could make the fourth bedroom and it adjoins the ground floor bathroom.

All of the ground floor rooms have wooden floors and both reception rooms come with marble and cast iron fireplaces.

The upper level has three bedrooms, one of which is en suite, and a main bathroom.

Outside the grounds are beautifully tended and the back garden in particular should wow the viewers. Though still not fully mature, its surrounded by high walls and is bounded at the rear by tall, old trees, giving the property a rustic feel.

All a new owner will have to do is keep it tidy and watch it grow.
