About Glencara, 5 Maryborough Hill, Douglas, Cork

Description

Introducing Glencara, 5 Maryborough Hill, a substantial four-bedroom detached dormer bungalow, boasting a most convenient location on a mature and highly private site on Maryborough Hill, one of Corks finest residential locations. The property has been carefully maintained by its current owner and comes to the market in very good condition, while still offering the prospective purchaser the opportunity to add their own personal touch. Internally, the property offers an excellent sense of space, with each room enjoying generous proportions. The layout has been thoughtfully designed, providing a well-balanced mix of accommodation. The ground floor comprises an entrance hall, living room, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, utility room, sunroom, four bedrooms and the main bathroom. The first-floor features two large attic rooms, each with its own ensuite and currently used as bedroom spaces by the present owner. Externally, a gated tarmacadam driveway leads down to the house and provides ample parking for several cars. The impressive front garden is a standout feature of the property, with mature trees, shrubbery and planting, mostly laid to lawn. Enjoying a south-facing orientation, this garden is an oasis of privacy and a paradise for gardening enthusiasts. The rear garden is fully enclosed and features a patio area accessible from both the kitchen and sunroom, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. From here, the patio leads to a low maintenance stoned area, softened with mature planting and continues to the lawned area, which is bordered by mature shrubbery, trees and boundary walls, offering excellent privacy. Glencara is just a short walk into Douglas Village, with all its amenities both essential and social on your doorstep.
