Description
Forge House presents a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a substantial residence on a superb site of approximately 0.2 acres in the heart of Blackrock. Situated off Newtownpark Avenue, the property is within easy reach of every amenity the area has to offer, representing enormous potential for those seeking either a family home to modernise and extend or a development opportunity in one of South County Dublin’s most desirable locations. The property itself enjoys off-street parking and access to the front of what was the original Forge, now a 150 sq metre self-contained unit with WC, situated to the left of the main house and offering the possibility of incorporating the original Forge into the main house, or redevelop it for a variety of uses and opportunities. The property has vehicular access to the side, further enhancing the scope to extend or reconfigure subject to the necessary planning permissions. The generous level garden offers great width and is mainly laid out in lawn and offers wonderful privacy and an excellent canvas for landscaping or further development. The existing accommodation is well proportioned and, briefly, comprises a welcoming reception hall leading to a large living room to the front, complemented by a separate sitting room and a bright kitchen/breakfast room overlooking the rear garden. The ground floor also includes a bedroom, the main bathroom and a shower room. Upstairs there are two comfortable double bedrooms, one with a substantial dressing room. Forge House is positioned in an area long associated with quality homes and strong demand. Blackrock Village, with its excellent choice of boutiques, cafes, restaurants, and shopping centres, is within easy reach, as are a wide variety of highly regarded primary and secondary schools and of course UCD, the Scenic coastal walks along Dublin Bay. The excellent transport links, including various bus routes, the Luas, the DART, QBC and N11, place the city centre and beyond within easy commuting distance. Forge House offers a superb opportunity to create a bespoke family home or pursue a development project on a wonderfully private, level site in a prime Blackrock location. Properties of this nature and potential are seldom offered to the market and Forge House will appeal to both families and developers alike seeking to make their mark in this prestigious address.
