DNG Maxwell Heaslip & Leonard are proud to present to the market this most impressive townhouse located on Newcastle Road in Galway City. Located just minutes from the city centre, this outstanding two storey residence with rear extension is one of the finest city homes to come onto the Galway market in recent months.
Originally built in the 1930s, the property has undergone many upgrades over the years and while in excellent condition and move-in ready, it would require some upgrading to bring it up to modern living standards. However, as it currently stands, it is bright and spacious and has great potential for those looking to live in one of the most desirable parts of the city.
The house is one of eight similarly styled houses in a row, set back far enough from the street so that passing cars don’t become the main focus. The house has front and back gardens and a passageway that gives the entrance an otherworldly feel, as if from a bygone era.
Stepping over the threshold into the wonderful lobby area, the first thing you notice is the polished concrete floor. The high ceilings, cornices and vaulted ceilings and original staircase date back to when the property was built.
There’s a larger living room with a bay window that offers views of the cathedral’s copper dome, and the original kitchen is now the living room, serving as a passageway to the extended kitchen area.
The first floor has three good sized bedrooms, the larger of which has its own ensuite shower room. The loft has been cleverly converted into storage but could also double as a home office or bedroom.
There is a west facing back garden to the rear of the house which has great potential with a little attention. It is a real blessing to have such a sundeck in the heart of the city and a keen gardener will make the most of this space.
Selling agent James Heaslip commented: “Having recently overseen property sales in the area, I can safely say that this impressive property has huge potential. Although currently used as a rental property, the layout and design could be further improved without much expense.
“Due to the area’s proximity to hospitals and universities, demand for housing is currently at an all-time high. With good transport links, close proximity to the city centre, a great selection of schools and a host of amenities, the area is sure to appeal to those who want to enjoy city living in a home full of charm and character.”
Number 18 Newcastle Road is on the market for €510,000.
