Description
Owen Reilly is delighted to present 8 Gilford Drive to the market—an exceptional 1930s three-bedroom semi-detached family home with bay windows and an integrated garage, ideally positioned on a leafy and mature residential road just off Park Avenue. This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a property in one of Dublin’s most sought-after residential locations, offering a perfect balance of village charm and urban convenience. The home is tastefully presented and retains many original features. A new gas boiler was recently installed and the attic was insulated. It benefits from a secluded front garden with off-street parking and a west facing rear garden which is ideal for families laid out in lawn with mature hedging, shrubs, and a sun-drenched patio—perfect for al fresco dining. The accommodation is bright and spacious throughout and briefly comprises an entrance hallway, a front living room with pocket doors to the dining room, and an extended kitchen/family room to the rear with a separate utility room and WC that connects to the garage which could be converted. Double doors lead out to the generous rear garden. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. This exceptional home is within walking distance of Sandymount Village, Sandymount Strand and Sandymount DART Station. It is also close to many of Dublin’s top schools and an excellent selection of sports clubs, including Pembroke Cricket & Hockey Club, Monkstown Rugby Club, and the Aviva Stadium. The RDS is also nearby. Major commercial hubs such as the IFSC and South Docks IT corridor are within easy reach, and the Port Tunnel offers direct access to Dublin Airport in just 15 minutes.
