D4: €1.1M:A LARGE three-bedroom apartment in the popular St Ann's development in Donnybrook has come on the market at €1.1 million through Gunne Residential.
The 185sq m (1,991sq ft) apartment, number 49, is on the third floor, with a balcony and views over Donnybrook Church towards the Dublin mountains.
Number 49 will be of interest to those looking to trade down from large houses in the area. It’s been maintained to a high standard though new owners will most likely redecorate.
St Ann’s is popular with retirees because not only are its apartments built on a generous scale, but it also has the reputation of being a well managed block.
This apartment comes with its own lock-up garage and heating and hot water is included in the annual service charge of around €7,000.
It has a great layout with a wide central hallway leading to large, well-proportioned rooms. Thanks to its location at the end of the block, it has windows on three sides.
The hallway, which is over 12ft wide, has a number of floor-to-ceiling cupboards. To the left is a very spacious livingroom with a wall of windows, and a Victorian- style fireplace fitted with a gas fire. Glazed double doors lead through to a separate diningroom which in turn opens onto a balcony, also accessed from the livingroom.
The kitchen is also bigger than average with space for a table for four beside a tall picture window.
There are three good-sized bedrooms. The main bedroom has an ensuite and a family bathroom serves the other two.
