An instantly appealing semi-detached family home positioned to the rear of this popular sought after cul-de-sac close to the junctions with Watson Drive and Oakton Park and next to a large open green area.
42 Ralahine was featured on the Dermot Bannon Room to Improve show on RTE in 2009 (Season 3: Ep 3), and the brief given was to adapt the owner-built family home for disabled access and home living. The finished product now really speaks for itself.
Gated off street parking leads to wheelchair access to the double folding hall doors that open into the generously proportioned reception hall. The property had a reception room converted to a large double downstairs bedroom with en suite facilities. It was extended to the side creating a bright open plan family, kitchen and separate dining area. This is an exceptionally bright open space infused with natural light with the unexpected views at eye level in the kitchen of the Dublin Mountains (a specific design feature of Dermot Bannon).
Upstairs off the landing there are three excellent bedrooms, an en suite and family shower room with good storage in the attic via a pull down ladder.
42 Ralahine is a wonderfully presented family home positioned in a very family orientated location which is surrounded by a host of excellent primary and secondary schools, a regular bus service and a superb road network with the N11 and M50 making commuting to and from the city centre and nationwide very convenient. Within the immediate area there is easy access to a selection of shopping centres and supermarkets with Tesco on Churchview Road, Dunnes Stores at Cornelscourt and the thriving Dundrum Shopping Centre just off the M50. Dun Laoghaire, Glasthule and Dalkey are close by and have a wide range of local and boutique shops, two shopping centres, pubs and some of the finest restaurants in South County Dublin.
There is an abundance of recreational and leisure facilities on the doorstep with Seapoint RFC and Cabinteely FC positioned in the grounds of Kilbogget Park literally down the road with Cabinteely Park and the stunning walks over the Dublin Mountains slightly further afield. Cherrywood Business Park and Cherrywood Village is within close proximity and there will be many park amenities, shopping outlets, cafes and restaurants when complete.
