19 Bellevue Avenue, Glenageary, Co. Dublin

MIXED USE RESIDENTIAL / COMMERCIAL PROPERTY IN FAMILY AREA
19 Bellevue Avenue is a wonderful opportunity to create a family home in a highly desirable residential neighbourhood. Or a perfect place to combine business and a home in one location, for an owner occupier or an investor.

19 Bellevue Avenue is one of a row of shops in this former local shopping street, formerly the local pharmacy. The house is the end-of-terrace, part of an semi-detached pair of 2-storey houses. It includes a former shop entrance (currently unused) entering into a large main shop area, currently used as a living room, and into a spacious storeroom to rear, recently used as a bedroom, with attached shower room/WC attached.

A second main door to the street front brings you through a porch into the main hallway of the residential part of the property. It accesses the living room to the right and then leads into well-appointed family kitchen to rear. A second part of the kitchen is used as a utility area, and finally a covered sun-room creates a dining/breakfast area.

Upstairs the first floor is laid out like a full-sized family four bedroom home. To front there is a large main bedroom, previously used as a living room. To the back there is another large double bedroom overlooking the garden. There are two further single bedrooms and a main family bathroom. Above the first floor, these houses have large attic spaces. While currently just storage space, many neighbours have had these attics converted into another level of accommodation (Subject to Planning Permission).

To the back of the property, accessed via the sunroom or side passage, is a massive 80’ (25m) rear garden. This sunny, South-facing aspect is beautiful and features a selection of lovely mature trees and shrubs, plus storage sheds. There would be ample space for the main house to be extended further at ground floor level (S.T.P.P.) and still have a generous family-sized garden.

The property is presented in excellent condition, walk-in ready for a family home. There is double-glazing throughout and a gas-fired boiler powering the central heating. The property would quickly benefit from energy upgrades, supported by generous government grants.

PLANNING
The property is currently subject to planning for a mixed commercial and residential use. The ground floor front room, rear room and bathroom area is planned for commercial. It has however been used as a living room and bedroom for some 20 years. The remainder of the house is designated as residential accommodation. The property might be suitable for a purchaser looking for mixed-use or for a project to moderise, extend or change the house in design or use (Subject To Planning Permission).

PARKING
The legal title and siteplan of the property includes an area of the front concrete/hardstanding of the path and road immediately outside the front door. This has been taken to include a carparking space, either on the road or the hardstanding/curb, however it is not explicitly stated as such.
