The property opens into a long hall, lined with spring green coloured cabinetry, offering storage for every family member.
It includes a utility area which is plumbed for a washing machine and a dryer.
A set of Crittall-look doors open through to the open plan kitchen cum living room.
This is simply furnished and light-filled. It opens out to a south-west-facing, low-maintenance garden.
The room has a good layout, zoned to maximise the space.
The dining area is set into a bay that overlooks the exterior.
Clerestory windows bring more light into this part of the room.
The living area is directly ahead and is minimally decorated, allowing the light to bounce around.
It features a stylish shelving, a grey suede-look L-shaped sofa with side tables and a footstool and shelving below the TV for media boxes.
The kitchen is in another bay and is lit from above by a large rooflight.
Its Shaker door cabinetry is topped with quartz counters and is set in a C-shape.
Underfoot, a chevron-pattern timber floor knits the hall and living spaces together, creating a delineation between the living and accommodation.
The sleeping quarters are set up perfectly for family life.
Of the four bedrooms, two make perfect children’s rooms.
The principal has an ensuite shower room and opens out to the garden, ideal if the dawn chorus happens to wake you - you can wander out on these mornings and enjoy the birdsong.
The adjoining bedroom is currently used as a home office.
It could also double as a guest room.
The four-bedroom, two-bathroom property, which extends to 110 square metres and has a C1 Ber-rating, is seeking €1.15 million through agents Mullery O’Gara.
