A comfortable family home in south Dublin near the mountains and the sea

We are a family of 3 who live in a quiet residential area of Dublin. Our house was built in 1974 but has been modernised to a very high standard. Downstairs there is a large well equipped kitchen with a dining area that seats up to 7 people. If you are interested in cooking there is a big selection of cookery books. There is also a living area with TV and DVD player which looks out onto the garden. To the front of the house we have a sunny sitting room with TV. There is a downstairs bathroom with a shower. We have a garage with washing machine, dryer, and 3 bikes. Upstairs there is a twin bedroom, a master bedroom with a king sized bed and a single bedroom. There is also a family bathroom with bath and shower.
Outside there is a very generous garden with a patio area.

Nearby you will find two parks. St Enda’s park is within walking distance and has a small café and a museum and Marley park is a short drive and is known for its weekend food market and also for it lovely walks.

You will be in the city centre within 20 minutes and can visit the historic sites of Trinity College, Dublin castle. St Patricks cathedral and many more. The house is also close to the mountains and Wicklow known as “the garden of Ireland” has a variety of interesting mountain walks to offer. The picturesque sea side town of Dunlaoghaire is also close by as is the beach at Killiney.

There are a large number of activities for children of all ages: the zoo, Imaginosity Ireland first children’s museum, Jump zone and zip wiring in Tierbradden to name a few.

We look forward to hearing from you and are very excited about exchanging our house and welcoming you to Dublin.
