Address: 72 Gate Lodge, Castle Road, Blackrock, Cork This is a very bright four-bedroom end-of-terrace home nicely situated within Gate Lodge in a quiet cul-de-sac overlooking a green in the rear of the development and with no passing traffic. The rear garden has a westerly aspect and enjoys the sun throughout the day and into the evening. Gate Lodge is a very popular location because of its proximity to Blackrock village and its convenience to Cork's ring road network and Cork city centre. The Castle Walk along the waterfront is on the doorstep. The downstairs has an entrance hall with semi-solid wood flooring, a guest wc off, a wooden-floored lounge with an open fireplace piped for gas, a kitchen-breakfast room, and a dining room. The kitchen is fully fitted with floor and eye level units and is plumbed for washing machine and tumble dryer. The cooker is included in the sale. The floor is tiled, as is the work area. An arch opens to the dining room which has a tiled floor and overlooks the rear garden, with patio doors opening onto a patio. There are also glass-panelled doors which may be erected to close off the reception room from the kitchen if one wishes. Upstairs, the landing, with a solid painted wood floor, has a hotpress. The main bedroom is situated to the front and has a solid wood floor and double built-in wardrobes. The other double bedroom is to the rear of the house and has a laminate wood floor. The other two bedrooms are single, one with a built-in wardrobe. The bathroom is fully tiled and is fitted with a three piece bathroom suite with electric shower over the bath. The front garden has a lawn and drive. There is gated access to the rear garden, which is walled and fenced in and well planted with trees and shrubs as well as having a lawn. |
