5 Larch Wood, Woodlawn Avenue, Santry, Dublin 17, D17N636

A spacious own-door duplex with a south-facing balcony, exceptional attic storage and an impressive B2 energy rating.. Description No. 5 Larchwood is a well-presented two-bedroom duplex apartment with own-door access, generous internal storage and the feel of a small house rather than a standard apartment. Set within a quiet, secure gated development off Woodlawn Avenue, the property is positioned over two floors and offers very practical accommodation with a private south-facing balcony to the rear. The property has now been freshly painted and has been very well maintained over the years. The home is entered through its own front door, accessed by external steps, which raises the property above ground level and adds a greater sense of privacy. To the front is a generous kitchen and dining area with a bay window overlooking the car parking area. The kitchen includes a range of fitted base and wall units, tiled splashback and appliances to include oven, electric hob, extractor hood, full-size dishwasher, washing machine and a relatively new fridge-freezer. The Ideal Logic gas-fired central heating boiler is relatively new and also positioned in the kitchen. The living room is positioned to the rear of the property, a well-proportioned room with wood flooring, downlighters and direct access to the balcony. A full-size door also opens into a useful under-stairs storage area, which is very a useful everyday feature and particularly valuable in apartment living. The balcony itself is a strong selling point, measuring approximately 5.24m x 1.1m, finished with decking slats and cast-iron safety railings. It enjoys a south-facing rear aspect and offers an outdoor space which is not overlooked by other properties. Upstairs, a wide staircase leads to the first-floor accommodation where there are two bedrooms, main bathroom, ensuite and another very useful designated storage closet. The main bedroom is positioned to the front and includes built-in wardrobes and a large landscape-style window. It also has the benefit of an ensuite shower room with tiled flooring, tiled shower enclosure and a mains-fed pump boosted overhead shower. The second bedroom is an L-shaped room positioned to the front of the property, offering a more flexible layout with an additional section incorporating wardrobe space. One of the most impressive features of this home is the attic storage. Accessed by a pull down aluminium ladder from the landing, the attic is floored, insulated and fitted with a light. The overall floor area measures approximately 5.1m x 7.6m, with a usable stand-up section of approximately 5.1m x 3.66m and further accessible storage into the eaves. While not suitable for conversion into habitable accommodation, it is a superb storage space and a rare asset in an apartment or duplex property. The impressive B2 energy rating is another important feature, particularly for a property of this type. This may assist purchasers seeking green Mortgage options, subject to the qualifying criteria of individual lenders. The annual management fee is approximately €1,300, which is reasonable and includes items such as communal bin services, building insurance and maintenance of the common areas. Owners should arrange their own contents insurance. Larchwood is a quiet and well-maintained gated development with electronic fob access and ample private parking for residents and visitors. The location is very convenient, with easy access to the M50, Dublin City, Dublin Airport and surrounding north Dublin suburbs. Astro Park is positioned directly across the road and is home to Suntree and Starlights GFC, offering excellent sporting and leisure facilities nearby. No. 5 Larchwood is a very practical and appealing duplex home, offering own-door access, two bedrooms, two bathrooms plus guest wc, gas-fired central heating, a south-facing balcony, excellent storage and a generous attic space for storage. Combined with its B2 BER rating and reasonable management fee, this is a home that should appeal to buyers looking for a secure property with more space than expected, making it a particularly strong option in this price range. We look forward to hearing from you.
