Scale the Heights with this city bungalow

A FINE, big bungalow and one that’s a few minutes commute to the city, is on offer in Ardagh Heights through Sinéad Twohig of Property Choice.

Up Dublin Hill, to Dublin Pike, turn right and there’s Ardagh Heights, a private and mature residential development of bungalows to the front and two-storeys to the rear.

And it drops downward and has what Sinead Twohig describes as a ‘meandering layout’. Quiet and private, it was laid out to resemble a village close, she says, and retains that feel.

St Joseph’s is a well presented, four-bedroom bungalow in Ardagh Heights and it sits on a lovely, half acre site which, when you consider how close it is to Blackpool, is a big attraction.

Priced at €625,000, it’s going to appeal to locals looking to trade-up, she says, particularly from the Kinvara, Mervue and Meadowlands estate. And the big site means there’s plenty of scope to add-on, with lots of playing room for children and teenagers.

The house may need a makeover, especially for younger buyers who prefer wooden floors, but it’s in good condition and has 1,700 sq ft of space. Very private, it has countryside views. It comes with two reception rooms, a kitchen, utility, master ensuite and three other bedrooms and a bathroom.
