This townhouse that stands out from the crowd in north Co Dublin could be yours for €699k
Harbour View is a spacious two-bed in the seaside village of Rush.
A HOME ALONG the harbour of Rush that certainly has the wow factor, this contemporary townhouse is no wall flower. You may be surprised to learn that although it has a floor area of 151 m² and is set over three floors, it has just two bedrooms. In that respect, it would be ideal for a small family or a couple looking for a comfortable and modern home that’s close to the city as well as the sea.
Harbour View was built 15 years ago with an aim to make of the most of its seaside location – and that it does. Each floor has large windows that frame the coastline.
Although the house is ready to walk into, there is renovation potential, which could be music to the ears of a larger family who doesn’t want to pass up the opportunity of owning this house. The garage and outdoor space could be converted to create more bedrooms, if needed.
As it stands, the house comprises a courtyard that leads to the main entrance where you are greeted by the hall. The house’s interesting layout means the large utility room, a double bedroom and the garage make up the ground floor.
There is a bathroom on every floor, so each bedroom has its own for added privacy.
The first floor is home to the living room, kitchen and dining areas – a large space that’s bright and continues to take advantage of the harbour location, this is a luxurious and contemporary level that’s sure to see lots of guests. The ceilings are high, the finishes are high-end and the joinery is bespoke.
The first floor also has access to an outdoor terrace which only adds to the luxury and unique hosting opportunities. The top floor is left to the main bedroom with its fabulous en suite bathroom and doors to its own terrace.
Rush us a busy town in North Co Dublin that’s just a short drive from Dublin Airport and an easy commute from the city centre.
The town has everything anyone needs every day, a choice of primary and secondary schools with options in the towns of Skerries, Swords and Howth all close by. For anyone who wants to leave the car at home, the town has a train and bus service to the city.
As is, Harbour View is a luxury option for a small family or couple, but with some creativity and a bit more money, it has potential if two bedrooms just won’t suffice.
Harbour View, Harbour Road, Rush, Co Dublin is on the market for €699,000 through DNG McKenna Healy.
