  • Active Planning Permission: Comes with full planning permission granted under reference 25/96 for ground and first-floor extensions.

  • Nearby Shopping Amenities: A wealth of shopping options are located just a short distance away for everyday convenience and groceries.
  • Recreational Facilities Closeby: Local parks and sports amenities nearby support an active lifestyle for families and individuals alike.
  • Compact Efficient Layout: Measuring approximately 79.1 square meters the layout is easy to heat and maintain economically.

  • Three Practical Bedrooms: Includes three well-sized bedrooms accommodating family members or home office requirements effectively.
  • Strong Resale Value: Properties with established planning permissions in popular developments traditionally retain robust market liquidity and value.

But keep in mind:

  • Moderate BER Rating: The C energy rating indicates that insulation or heating upgrades may be required to achieve optimal energy efficiency.
  • Single Bathroom Constraint: Having only one bathroom could create morning bottlenecks for a busy family of three or more occupants.
  • Compact Total Floor Area: At approximately 79.1 square meters the baseline footprint is relatively small before any extensions are built.
  • Extension Construction Costs: Capital will be needed to execute the approved planning permission if the buyer actually wants to expand the home.
  • Planning Condition Compliance: Buyers must carefully verify all specific conditions attached to planning reference 25/96 before commencing construction.
  • Expiration of Planning: Check the exact timeframe remaining on the granted planning permission to ensure it has not lapsed or is near expiry.
  • Party Wall Considerations: Side extension plans may impact boundaries and require formal agreements with neighboring property owners.
  • Potential Disruption from Works: Undertaking the permitted extensions will cause significant noise dust and living inconvenience during construction phases.
  • Limited Master Bedroom Size: The master bedroom measures 3.1m by 3.0m which leaves restricted space for large wardrobes or extra furniture.
  • Small Third Bedroom: Bedroom three is quite compact at 2.9m by 2.2m limiting its versatility as a full double bedroom.
  • Ground Floor Constraint: The current ground floor lacks a dedicated utility room meaning laundry facilities must share kitchen or bathroom space.
  • Parking Congestion Risk: Although guest parking is opposite high neighborhood density could occasionally restrict available visitor spaces.
  • Corner Plot Maintenance: A larger corner site naturally demands more frequent gardening effort and exterior boundary upkeep.
  • Energy Performance Figure: The specific indicator of 152.38 kWh/m2/yr suggests moderate heat loss that could increase winter utility bills.
  • Heating System Age: Buyers should investigate the age and efficiency rating of the existing boiler and central heating infrastructure.
  • Window Glazing Check: Verify whether the current windows are double or triple glazed to gauge future replacement budgeting needs.
  • Roof and Attic Insulation: Inspect the current attic insulation depth to see if it meets modern standards for heat retention.
  • Local Market Price Comparison: Ensure the asking price of €295,000 accurately reflects recent comparable sales within the immediate development.
  • Drainage and Servicing: Verify that existing drainage connections can adequately handle the planned kitchen and bedroom extensions.
  • Future Expansion Limits: Even with permission buyers must ensure structural foundations can support the proposed first-floor side gable extension.
