Four-bed in Rathfarnham for €585,000

Semi-detached house located in a quiet, leafy cul-de-sac off Butterfield Avenue

This article is over 10 years old

Kilvere is a quiet, leafily rambling enclave of houses built in a cul-de-sac off Butterfield Avenue in the early 1990s. The years since have been kind: gardens and landscaping have matured nicely and there’s a quiet confidence about the place.

Number 10, for sale through Sherry FitzGerald with an asking price of €585,000, has had its kitchen revamped, extended and opened up to striking effect. Entirely in shades of cream and wood, the almost white porcelain floor tiles have been extended to cover the hallway, a style touch that creates a sense of expansive space.

The kitchen, which leads on to a rear family room, has marble counter tops, a light oak dining counter, good range of storage presses and integrated fittings. Both kitchen and dining room, the latter separated from the kitchen by the dining counter, get the full benefit of the light pouring from three large velux over the family room.

The front-facing sittingroom is kept private from the kitchen/dining area by double doors with glazed glass panels. It has a box-bay window, oak floor and good-looking cream marble fireplace with cast-iron inset. Altogether, number 10 has 135sq m (1,453sq ft) of floor space.
