What you'll like:

  • Spacious green aspect: The property fronts directly onto a spacious and mature green area, providing a pleasant outlook and an enhanced sense of openness for residents.
  • Private rear garden: The enclosed outdoor space benefits from open green fields directly behind it, meaning the back garden is completely private and not overlooked.
  • Modern solid stove: A wood-surround solid fireplace featuring an inset solid fuel stove was added in recent years, boosting the cozy living area appeal.
  • Open plan layout: The ground floor features a functional open-plan living and dining area with modern laminate flooring that easily connects to the kitchen.
  • Integrated kitchen appliances: The kitchen is fully equipped with built-in wall and base units, tile splashbacks, and integrated appliances including an oven and dishwasher.
  • Dual window bedroom: The main front bedroom benefits from two separate windows, flooding the generous double-sized room with abundant natural light.
  • Substantial double bedrooms: Both upstairs bedrooms are substantial double rooms complete with built-in wardrobes, offering ample hanging rails and storage space for residents.
  • Off-street parking: The exterior provides convenient and secure off-street parking via a neat brick-paved cobble-lock driveway bordered by a lawn.
  • Practical outdoor shed: A block-built detached shed in the rear garden offers useful secure storage for bicycles, tools, and general outdoor gear.
  • Stira attic access: A folding Stira stairs leads to additional attic storage space, making it easy to access the overhead area without hassle.
  • Convenient location: The home is positioned within a short stroll of local amenities, including the popular Lees Road Sporting Complex for recreation.
  • Easy commuter access: The address offers exceptionally easy access to both the inner relief road and the main Lahinch Road for local travel.
  • Nearby schools: National and secondary schools are conveniently located close by, making the property highly practical for growing families with children.
  • Town centre proximity: Ennis town's main business district and commercial hub are situated just a short distance away from the residential development.
  • Stable asking price: The asking price has remained stable at two hundred sixty thousand euros without any recorded upward adjustments during tracking.
  • Efficient gas heating: The dwelling is serviced by a mains gas central heating system, ensuring reliable warmth and temperature control during winter.
  • Mains utilities connected: The property is fully hooked up to standard mains water and mains sewage infrastructure for hassle-free daily living.
  • Gated side access: A secure gated side entrance provides convenient thoroughfare between the front driveway and the private back garden area.
  • Low maintenance garden: The rear outdoor space has been finished with gravel and a patio area, minimizing the need for intensive garden upkeep.
  • Motorway proximity: The address provides swift connectivity to the M18 motorway, facilitating straightforward commuter links to wider regional employment centers.

But keep in mind:

  • Compact floor area: With a total floor space of approximately sixty-nine square meters, the two-bedroom accommodation is relatively compact for growing family needs.
  • Single bathroom setup: The home relies on just one main family bathroom upstairs, which could create morning bottlenecks for occupants of both double bedrooms.
  • C1 energy rating: The current C1 building energy rating indicates that the home may benefit from further thermal upgrades to optimize heating efficiency.
  • Asking price stability: The asking price has remained entirely unchanged at two hundred sixty thousand euros, suggesting the seller may currently hold firm views on value.
  • Limited ground floor WC: The floor plan does not feature a dedicated downstairs guest toilet, meaning visitors must use the upstairs family bathroom.
  • Timber bathroom flooring: The main bathroom features timber flooring rather than fully tiled wet surfaces, which buyers should inspect for potential water wear.
  • Stove compliance check: Buyers should verify that the recently added solid fuel stove complies fully with local building regulations and current safety standards.
  • Attic insulation verification: While the attic has Stira access, buyers should inspect the exact level of thermal insulation present to ensure optimal heat retention.
  • Window glazing checks: A professional survey should confirm the exact age, condition, and acoustic insulation performance of the existing window glazing units.
  • Boundary fence inspection: Buyers should carefully examine the legal boundaries and the condition of the garden walls shared with adjacent semi-detached properties.
  • Maintenance history review: Requesting service records for the gas central heating boiler and integrated kitchen appliances is recommended prior to final purchase.
  • Drainage inspection: A thorough CCTV drain survey should be considered to check the condition of the private and shared mains sewage connections.
  • Ventilation check in kitchen: The kitchen and bathroom ventilation systems should be inspected to ensure adequate moisture extraction and prevent condensation buildup.
  • Storage limitation check: Apart from bedroom wardrobes and the shed, overall built-in storage is modest, requiring reliance on attic space for bulk items.
  • Traffic noise evaluation: Buyers should visit the area at peak commuting times to evaluate local traffic flow along the Lahinch Road and relief routes.
  • Local development checks: Due diligence should include checking local planning registers for any future residential or commercial developments nearby.
  • BER certificate review: Buyers should review the detailed advisory report attached to the C1 BER certificate to identify cost-effective energy improvements.
  • Roof space inspection: A surveyor should inspect the roof timbers and rafters from the attic hatch to check for any signs of dampness or structural wear.
  • Property tax verification: Buyers must verify the precise local property tax band applicable to this specific address with the Revenue Commissioners.
  • Title and covenant review: Legal representatives should thoroughly check the property title, estate management covenants, and any rights of way relating to the development.

Price positioning

?
This comparison depends on limited public and listing evidence, which may be incomplete, outdated or not directly comparable. The score is not a percentage, professional valuation or guaranteed estimate. Ask an independent qualified valuer before relying on a property value.
The asking price looks slightly undervalued compared with the available evidence.
  • The asking price for this property appears surprisingly modest relative to recent local transactions on the same street, suggesting potential undervaluation or an aggressive initial marketing strategy designed to stimulate intense competitive bidding.
  • Signals pointing towards undervaluation include a stable listing figure that matches historical precedent in the immediate estate while broader regional town markers show higher achieved values for comparable floor areas.
  • Factors that could support such an accessible price point involve the compact two-bedroom layout and C1 energy rating, whereas strong local demand and proximity to Ennis town amenities might easily push final bids significantly higher.
  • Overall, the asset is positioned slightly below prevailing market averages for similar suburban dwellings, reflecting a strategic pricing approach by the vendor to attract maximum interest in a competitive housing climate.
