DESCRIPTION:
An exceptional and genuinely rare opportunity to acquire a fully detached, three-bedroom home in the heart of Balbriggan, North County Dublin.
This property stands out in the current market for three reasons that rarely combine in a single listing: immediate rental income, substantial development potential, and a superb lifestyle location just ten minutes' walk from a beautiful sandy beach.
THE PROPERTY
The home extends to approximately 107 sq/m arranged over two well-proportioned floors.
On the ground floor, a generous entrance hall leads to a bright separate living room, kitchen/dining area , and a substantial downstairs guest W/C — a feature rarely found at this price point.
Upstairs, a wide landing leads to three bedrooms, including a master bedroom with private en-suite, served by the main family bathroom.
The attractive red brick façade to the front and side gives the home excellent kerb appeal and timeless character.
The rear and left side elevation has been recently UPGRADED with modern thermal external insulation, significantly improving energy performance and reducing running costs — an upgrade buyers typically have to fund themselves after purchase.
DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL — TWO SEPARATE OPPORTUNITIES
This property offers not one but two independent routes to expand and add value, making it exceptionally attractive for buyers looking to grow into a larger home over time.
Side Extension: The substantial side garden has the potential for a large apartment two-storey extension.
Architectural drawings have already been prepared showing a full double-storey side extension across four elevations — front, rear, and both sides — designed to match the brick exterior and roofline of the original house seamlessly.
This could add two to three additional rooms and significantly increase both the floor area and the market value of the property. Planning drawings are available to view. (Subject to planning permission.)
Attic Conversion: The property features an unusually high roof profile, making it an ideal and cost-effective candidate for attic conversion — adding a fourth bedroom, home office, or studio without the need for a ground-level extension and with no impact on the gardens. Subject to planning requirements.
