Mount Alton Court is probably the most sought after location in the Knocklyon area, coveted by families with strong established local roots who need more space for growing families. But with just six unique detached homes in this quiet cul-de-sac, the opportunity to realise that dream of trading up to The Court is remote – until now. Number 2 was briefly for sale in the spring of 2020, but the not insignificant matter of a global pandemic caused a rethink at that time and it is only coming back to the market this year.
This is a spacious, well laid out, and fabulously well-finished home, brimming with quality features, from the lovely wood floors to the handcrafted kitchen and much more. Despite being almost 40 years old, it comes with an enviable B3 energy rating, thanks in the main to the warming influence of the triple glazed windows and solar panels.
EXPLORE INSIDE
The first impression is one of space, a generous porch leads to a large hall. The kitchen, to the right, is at the front of the house, with a large utility/cloakroom to the rear. The painted wooden kitchen fittings mean that the new owners can easily ring the changes without having to undertake a major refit project.
The spacious sitting and dining room run the length of the left side of the house, with a wood burning stove in the front-room fireplace. Patio doors lead to the garden at the rear.
At the rear of the hall is a cosy TV room – an ideal play room, or a chill space for teens and their friends, something many families value as a way to avoid the ‘teen-bedroom-cave’ situation. A guest bathroom completes the ground floor accommodations.
Upstairs the spacious landing leads to four generous bedrooms, with master ensuite, and a family bathroom incorporating both a walk-in shower and a bath. There is ample wardrobe space throughout.
EXPLORE OUTSIDE
Off-street parking to the front will accommodate at least two cars. The rear garden includes an attractive raised patio and a brick-built shed and boiler house. With direct access from two sets of patio doors, this space is ideal for the type of ‘inside-outside’ barbecue area that the Irish weather gifts us, or just for chilling with a glass of rosé on a sunny evening (as hard to picture as that might be now!).
Wider afield is a well-established community with a choice of sought-after schools within walking distance, and a wide variety of sports facilities nearby. Knocklyon Shopping Centre, a short stroll away, is well served with an excellent Super Valu and a range of small retailers as well as facilities such as a Café, Credit Union and Post Office.
Further afield the M50 is easily accessed, and there are multiple bus routes in easy walking range.
THE BOTTOM LINE
This is a family home that children will grow up in, gather their friends in, get married from, and return to for dinner on Sundays to show off grandchildren. It’s the kind of home that will anchor a family for many decades. It has done its duty once, and is ready to welcome its new forever people.
