- Three storey layout: Spanning 103 square meters across three levels, the home offers an excellent separation of living and sleeping spaces for growing families.
- Attractive red brick: The classic exterior facade delivers strong visual appeal and traditional kerb charm from the quiet residential street.
- Upgraded main bathroom: Renovated in 2020, the first-floor bathroom features modern finishes like underfloor heating, a heated towel rail, and a large standalone shower.
- Chalet garden room: An insulated and heated outdoor structure with electricity and an alarm offers a ready-made home office or private gym space.
- Ample parking options: Dedicated parking directly to the front ensures you and your visitors will never struggle to find a secure vehicle space.
- Desirable St Mary parish: Located within a highly respected local parish boundary, making this an attractive option for buyers prioritizing school catchment areas.
- Walking to village: You can easily stroll into Lucan Village on foot to access local cafes, pubs, shops, and essential community services.
- Proximity to shopping: A short drive brings you to the massive retail selection at Liffey Valley Shopping Centre for all major grocery and fashion needs.
- Fast motorway access: Quick proximity to both the N4 and M50 ensures streamlined commuting by car across Dublin and beyond.
- Plumbing and heating updated: The central heating system and plumbing infrastructure have recent updates, helping to reduce immediate maintenance risks for the buyer.

- Private enclosed garden: Block-built walls and timber fencing fully enclose the rear lawn, providing excellent safety and privacy for pets and children.
- Dedicated outdoor sheds: Alongside the main garden room, a separate Barna shed provides extra utility space for storing bicycles, tools, and garden gear.
- Generous bedroom sizing: All three bedrooms are spacious doubles, avoiding the typical tiny box room found in many standard three-bedroom terrace layouts.

- Top floor bedroom retreat: The third bedroom occupies the entire top floor, complete with dual Velux windows, built-in storage, and its own wash hand basin.
But keep in mind:
- C2 energy rating: A C2 BER rating indicates average energy efficiency, which could mean higher winter heating bills compared to more modern A-rated builds.
- Three storey stairs: Living across three levels means navigating multiple flights of stairs daily, which might prove inconvenient for households with mobility issues.
- Kitchen at front: The kitchen faces the front entrance, meaning less privacy when cooking while ground-floor front windows look directly onto the public green.
- Top floor heat loss: Attic-level bedrooms with Velux windows can sometimes experience higher temperature fluctuations, becoming overly warm in summer or cool in winter.
- Shared side access: Pedestrian access to the rear garden is via a shared side route, potentially limiting privacy and ease of moving large items.
- Garden room permits: The buyer should verify if proper planning permission and building regulations were obtained for the insulated chalet style garden room.
- Plumbing timeline typo: The listing mentions plumbing and heating updated in 2026, which is a future date, so the buyer must verify the true installation year.
- Potential traffic noise: Being located close to major transport corridors like the N4 and M50 could introduce distant ambient road noise to the neighborhood.
- Compact front kitchen: The front kitchen measures just 2.2 meters wide, which might feel slightly narrow for multiple people preparing meals simultaneously.
- Staircase furniture limits: Moving bulky wardrobes and beds up multiple flights to the first and top floor bedrooms could prove challenging during the house move.
- Parking congestion risk: Ample parking at the front is communal or unassigned, meaning spaces directly outside the door might occasionally be filled by neighbors.
- Balancing hot water: With two separate showers and multiple occupants, the buyer should check the hot water cylinder capacity to ensure it meets peak demand.
- Upkeep of timber elements: The exterior timber fencing and interior solid timber floors will require regular maintenance, staining, and varnishing to prevent wear.
- Single door sliding patio: The living room opens to the garden via a single set of glazed sliding doors, restricting the wider indoor-outdoor flow of French doors.
- Velux window maintenance: Top-floor Velux roof lights require periodic cleaning of exterior glass and seals to prevent potential weather leaks over time.
- Potential boundary overlaps: The buyer should review the property deeds carefully to ensure the garden room and Barna shed sit entirely within the legal title boundaries.
- Limited ground floor WC: The floor plans indicate bathrooms on the upper levels, meaning guests may need to walk upstairs from the living areas to use facilities.
- Commuter rush hours: Local roads feeding into Lucan Village and motorway links can experience heavy congestion during typical morning and evening rush hours.
- Attic storage clearance: The top floor offers floored attic storage space, but the buyer should inspect the roof insulation depth to ensure modern standards are met.
- Future retrofit costs: Upgrading the property insulation and windows to reach a modern B or A energy rating will require significant future financial investment.
