Hatchet falls on Barstown asking price

Originally on the market with a guide price in the region of €625,000, the vendors of Barstown, near The Hatchet between Summerhill and Dunboyne, have taken the falling market into consideration with its current asking price of just €525,000 for an impressive four-bedroom bungalow. The property is only about eight kilometres from Dunboyne on a quiet road located just off the Dunboyne-Summerhill route at The Hatchet. A full brick-built house with double glazing and uPVC fascia boards and soffits, there is no external maintenance needed with the property. Internally, accommodation includes a well-proportioned lounge with dining area, a large games room which will make the children (or even the dad!) the envy of all their classmates, not to mention the sunroom and a large family kitchen with open fireplace. Four double bedrooms, with the master en-suite and all bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, as well as the family bathroom, complete this exceptionally well-presented family home. Both bathroom and en-suite have been newly upgraded with top-of-the-range suites and are fully tiled. The hallway with its solid timber flooring and cloakroom leads to the large, bright and spacious lounge with Amtico flooring, coal effect gas fire, ceiling coving and rose, recessed lighting and door from dining area to kitchen. The games room is suitable for a multiple of uses - playroom or office, and is accessed from the kitchen. Also accessed from the kitchen is the sunroom with its tiled floors and door to an easily maintained rear garden. The impressive kitchen with its excellent range of high and low level presses has Amtico flooring and tiled splashback, and an open fireplace with brick surround. There are tiled floors and a door to the rear of the utility room, which is plumbed for all conveniences. The master bedroom features wall to wall built-in wardrobes and a newly upgraded en-suite. There are built-in wardrobes in the other three bedrooms, and the family bathrrom is also recently newly decorated. The property includes an integrated garage. All the carpets are newly laid, while the kitchen and lounge also have new Amtico flooring. The gardens and grounds are well defined with mature hedgerows and trees, and the outside area is easily maintained due to its clever planting of shrubs and trees and boasts a large secluded deck area which can be accessed from the sunroom. With the imminent opening of the rail line from Dublin to Dunboyne, this could be the purchase of the year, according to Maureen Rafter of Sherry Fitzgerald Sherry, Dunshaughlin.
