High spec home and good location great combination

HALF an acre, a location on the Curraheen road and a high standard of accommodation not suprising that 'Jalna' comes to the market with a price tag of €635,000.

Michael O'Donoghue of McKenna O'Donoghue Clarke has seen some heavy viewing in the two weeks this house has been on, but has no offers so far.

However, he's confident the five-bed bungalow is a winner, not just because it has a city end location, (it's quite near the local Centra), but also because it has two access points, from the Curraheen road and from a laneway at the rear.

Which also raises the question of development potential: there are a number of infill schemes in the area, not least the new student apartments on the Curraheen road by O'Flynn Construction.

This could add significant weight to the sale, but so far all of the interest has been from families looking to trade up, says Mr O'Donoghue. The house has been extended to the rear and this includes a conservatory: it also has two reception room, and a large kitchen dining room with breakfast bar and oak units.

There are five bedrooms and a bathroom and the master comes ensuite. Grounds are gorgeous, with mature hedgerows, a water feature and shrub beds.

All the usual services are included and the house comes with a large, detached garage.
