Dundalk townhouse is a real style-setter
An end-terrace home of just over 960 sq ft, this two-bed has had over 20,000 hits and viewings on Daft.ie in the ten days or so since it came to market, and got extra social media traction on Facebook.
It has had 80 viewings, including one from an Irish woman who flew over from London to see it, and it’s under offer, well and truly.
And, given the proximity to Oriel Park, and the current UEFA league profile of Dundalk FC, a European buyer mightn’t be ruled out either. Or a Cork City player, on the transfer list?
Done up over a decade ago by a local Louth architect Martin McCormick as his own Dundalk base, it featured in 2008 in the pages of Ireland’s Homes Interiors and Living, and also won an Institute of Designers in Ireland Award for its interiors around the same time.
It’s still a style-setter, and is impressing all comers, from FTB’s to traders down and relocators, says selling agent Brian Carroll of Sherry FitzGerald Carroll.
He says the architect-owner had emigrated to Australia for a period, had it rented out, and has now returned to an improving Irish economy, and has decided to sell as he’s now based in Carlow.
No 14 hit the market this month guided at €165,000, and this has had to be swiftly changed to an upwards-revised asking of €200,000-plus, given a current offer of €205,000.
A wedge-shaped home at the back, it has as a scene setter a central, open tread stairs in the open plan living/dining kitchen, with two overhead bedrooms one of which is en suite, plus first floor chic, fully tiled bathroom and a mezzanine study.
Location wise, it is within 500 metres of Dundalk town centre, has the main garda station almost alongside, as is Dundalk Grammar School, and the M1 motorway is a kilometre away.
Style will out - and, design pays dividends.
