The expectation is that this red brick bungalow at Knockalisheen in Meelick in County Clare will appeal to a Limerick City buyer with its space and gardens.
For its guide price of €370,000, the four-bedroom property offers over 2,100 square feet of accommodation and has a self-contained studio as well as a wooden summer cabin and almost a half- acre of lawned gardens with a pond and patio area.
Gillian Dunne of DNG Cusack Dunne says this very significant property built in the 1970s has been significantly improved and modernized by the current owners in recent years.
“They redecorated and also did some insulation and installed a modern gas boiler,” she reveals.
During the renovations, the owners laid semi-solid walnut floors in most rooms, including the four bedrooms, and also merged the living room and dining room to create a large reception room which they completed with a strikingly tall concrete chimney.
At one end of the bungalow there is a self contained studio which has kitchen units and a shower and could be converted into a granny flat or home office.
In the gardens around the property there is a long patio, several seating areas on different levels in addition to a children’s hut and a play area.
Seeking offers of £370,000, Ms Dunne says the property is ideally located for commuters to Limerick city, around four miles away.
“It’s close to a good road network and the future northern distribution route,” she adds.
: Nicely modernized and very spacious.
