Great pre-Christmas value in Oakfield

John Barry of Keane Mahony Smith is going well below the average price guide for the area with his €340,000 asking price for 8 Oakfield Lawn.

One of those solid mature semis which are in strong demand, this three-bed offers well above the average space at 1,368 square feet. The house is an executor’s sale, which means it’s a committed process and there is scope to sweep it out from under the noses of other buyers.

A major selling point will be the long back garden — all 50 feet of it, which comes with high hedging, an ideal south-west facing aspect and it’s not overlooked.

Average prices in the area are in excess of €400,000, and while this property may need work, it’s good value at the asking price. Also, it has full insurance cover in the event of subsidence, says John Barry, so it ticks a number of boxes for prospective buyers.

Rooms includes a living room, TV room, dining room, kitchen, sunroom, three bedrooms and a main bathroom.

The attached garage could be pressed into use as a fourth bedroom/playroom or built over, as part of a larger extension.

Either way, this is great pre-Christmas value.
