8 Hillcrest is on the market for €575,000.
8 HILLCREST MIGHT be the sort of house that will make moving in look hassle-free and straightforward. This four-bed semi-detached home has already been upgraded by its current owners, combining a smart, contemporary interior with a particularly appealing south-facing back garden.
Offers by Daft are now live on this property, meaning you can place and track offers in real time, from anywhere. This handy online platform creates a fair and transparent process so that buyers can make decisions with confidence.
For sale by private treaty and brought to market by Russell Estate Agents, this 101 m² home is B3-rated and has seen a host of improvements in recent years. These include upgraded attic insulation, new kitchen appliances, a Palladio composite front door, Hive heating controls and a Ring security system with wired cameras and exterior lighting.
Inside, the layout works well for family life. The entrance hall opens into a generously-sized sitting room, where a broad window draws in plenty of daylight and a feature fireplace provides a natural focal point.
To the back is the bright open-plan kitchen and breakfast room, with sliding doors creating an easy connection to the garden. A discreetly incorporated guest toilet and useful downstairs storage complete the ground floor.
There are four bedrooms upstairs, giving the house a degree of flexibility that should appeal to families and those working from home. The principal bedroom, positioned to the back, has built-in wardrobes and its own en suite shower room. A second double bedroom is joined by two singles, one of which is currently arranged as a home office, while a family bathroom serves the remaining rooms.
Outside, Hillcrest really comes into its own. The private garden benefits from a sunny south-facing orientation and has been landscaped to make the most of both entertaining and quieter moments outdoors. A substantial porcelain-paved terrace provides ample room for dining furniture, while pebble pathways, mature planting and established borders soften the space.
Lattice fencing maintains privacy without making the garden feel enclosed, and a wired 10ft by 10ft steel shed offers considerably more than somewhere to stash the lawnmower, with potential for use as a practical workshop or additional storage space.
At the front, mature laurel hedging frames a neat pebble-finished driveway with parking for two cars.
Hillcrest also puts plenty within easy reach. Templeogue and neighbouring Rathfarnham offer a broad choice of shops, cafés, schools and green spaces, while sporting facilities include tennis, swimming, GAA and football clubs. Golfers have several courses nearby, including Rathfarnham, Castle, Grange and Edmondstown.
For commuters, access to the M50 and N81 is convenient, while regular bus services connect the area with Dublin city centre.
With its energy-efficient upgrades, adaptable four bedrooms and garden designed to catch the sun, 8 Hillcrest is a well-finished home – which means all the next owners really need are the keys.
