Behind the recently renovated facade lies a deceptively spacious and meticulously refurbished four-bed home which has been virtually rebuilt and fitted out to an extremely high standard that will appeal to a wide range of tastes.

Having purchased the property in 2003, the current owners have completely renovated the detached home which now spans 1,758sq ft (163sqm) while maintaining the original exterior.

Among many state-of theart features, this house includes Danish windows and doors, high-spec insulation, quality Portuguese tiling, timber flooring, increased ceiling heights, underground heating and a bright spacious living room extension with velux roof light windows and four double doors to the decked patio and rear garden.

They literally raised ceilings, lowered floors and completely remodelled the house, " says Lisney agent John O'Sullivan. This is a strong price for Weirview Drive but it is showing what can be done with these homes. This is a really interesting and outstanding family home."

Accommodation at ground floor includes a tiled entrance hallway with cloakroom, a large drawing room featuring box-bay window to the front with timber flooring and a family-room with glazed double doors to deck and rear garden. Downstairs accommodation also includes a fourth bedroom. The kitchen includes a range of fitted cupboards with polished granite surfaces, an island unit with Franke sink, an American-style fridge and a Brittania double oven.

A new contemporary-style timber and glass staircase leads to the upper floor with three good sized bedrooms.

The master bedroom includes an en suite with shower, as well as a dressing room with fitted shelving and hanging area. A second bedroom includes fitted wardrobe. The bathroom includes Italian limestonetiled floor, part-tiled walls and bath with shower.

The property has cobble driveway with off street parking to the front and a large south-east facing lawned garden with decking and mature hedging ensuring privacy and sunshine to the rear.

Off Merville Road close to Stillorgan and all the facilities of this thriving, popular south side suburb, the property has all the amenties a growing family would need. A good choice of schools, the Stillorgan shopping centre, cinema and leisureplex and sports facilities are all within easy reach. Transport facilities include the Luas, as well as bus services making the city centre very accessible.
