5 Woodlawn Park, Churchtown, Dublin 14, D14NX77

This is a rare chance to acquire a beautifully cared for family home, full of warmth and possibility, in a prestigious and wonderfully convenient setting. Whether loved just as it is or reimagined into your dream residence, this is a property that truly shines. This charming, double fronted detached bungalow sits proudly on a generous site of approximately 1/5 acre, benefitting from a glorious westerly aspect to the rear. Built in the 1930s, homes in this much admired enclave are known for their character and balance—high ceilings, generous proportions, and a natural flow that adapts easily to evolving family life. The scope to extend is immediately apparent, with opportunities to build to the side, into the garage, or into the impressive 52m (170ft) rear garden—not to mention the potential for further development into the attic space (subject to planning). This is a home that truly has the potential to be your forever place. A stroll through Woodlawn reveals the pride of the community, with many beautifully refurbished homes enhancing the area’s appeal. It’s clear that this has been a much loved and exceptionally well maintained family home. Inside, bright, well proportioned accommodation includes an inviting entrance hall, a spacious kitchen/ living/ dining room, a separate living room, three generous double bedrooms, and a family bathroom at ground level. There is also a utility room and an adjoining garage. The walled and gated front garden offers generous off-street parking with mature shrubs and spring flowers around the attractive gravelled walkways. There is parking for two cars that gives access to the attached garage to the rear of the property. Undoubtedly, one of the finest features of this property, are the secluded gardens with the much envied and sought-after Westerly aspect. The glorious rear garden, 52m long approx. (170ft) is just simply a haven of peace and tranquillity, offering great scope to extend (subject to P.P), or indeed to simply enjoy. There is a wonderful rear porch area ideal for those summer evenings enjoying the garden views. It is both a children’s and gardener’s paradise alike, with an expansive manicured lawn area and a large sun-drenched patio, with a selection of perimeter shrubs, clematis clad walls and easily maintained gravelled flower beds. Woodlawn Park enjoys a superb location—close to Rathgar, Milltown and Dundrum—and just a short stroll from the LUAS, offering quick and easy access to the city and beyond. Dundrum Town Centre, with its wide choice of shops, restaurants and amenities, is only minutes away, while Churchtown provides excellent local shopping. Families will appreciate the rich choice of nearby primary and secondary schools and UCD is just a short cycle away. Recreational options are plentiful, with Milltown and The Castle Golf Clubs close by, alongside a wonderful selection of leisure amenities—including peaceful walks along the Dodder Linear Park, which links Bushy Park all the way to Herbert Park. Sports enthusiasts will also appreciate the proximity of Riverview and Brookfield Tennis Clubs. Transport connections are excellent, with the LUAS at Dundrum and Windy Arbour providing speedy access to St Stephen’s Green and destinations beyond. Porch Entrance Hall 4.41m x 1.74m.
