Popular location will suit family or investor needs

BLINK and you’d miss Melbourne Court — it’s tucked in off the Model Farm Road close to the Tennis Village and has mix of townhouses and neat, detached houses.

Built some six years ago, No 25 Melbourne Court backs on to the access road to Boston Scientific in a location that gives fast access to CIT, CUH and UCC.

Now up for sale with Brian Olden of Lisney at €395,000, it’s a toss-up whether the house will be sold as a family home or investment property, as it’s suitable for both.

The location will certainly tempt investors as this is one of the best letting areas of the city, but the layout makes it an ideal family home and the enclosed nature of the development also makes it safe for children.

Although the site is snug, the house fronts onto a small, private cul-de-sac and it comes with four reception rooms and four bedrooms. The kitchen, dining room and living room interconnect and there’s a family room and TV room.

The upper level has four double rooms and an en suite master bedroom as well as a main bathroom.

Gas heating is installed, there’s private parking and the facade is low-maintenance.
