Sherry FitzGerald Quain is delighted to present No. 12 Retreats Height to the market. This exceptionally well-located four-bedroom detached dormer bungalow occupies a mature, leafy residential setting and offers an ideal combination of space, comfort and convenience. The property boasts a host of attractive features for family living, including a beautifully landscaped, south-facing rear garden, a secluded front garden and a garage with potential for extension or further development, subject to planning permission (SPP). The tastefully presented accommodation is further enhanced by its proximity to a wealth of local amenities, including schools, public transport links and neighbourhood shops.

Internally, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of space and natural light throughout. The accommodation extends to 173 sq. m (1,862 sq. ft), briefly comprises an entrance hallway, a spacious front living room with dual-aspect windows, and an open-plan dining and sitting area to the rear. This inviting space overlooks the stunning south-facing garden and features a charming wood-burning stove. The adjoining, well-equipped kitchen provides direct access to the rear garden. Completing the ground-floor accommodation are two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a shower room.

Upstairs, there are two further generously proportioned, light-filled double bedrooms. One benefits from a walk-in wardrobe, while the other features a walk-through dressing room and an en-suite bathroom, providing excellent additional space and comfort.

The exterior is equally impressive. The landscaped front garden is set behind gates and offers ample off-street parking, together with access to the garage. To the rear, the magnificent south-facing garden is a true highlight of the property. Mainly laid out in lawn and paved areas, it is bordered by mature hedging and established shrubbery and features an attractive water feature with pond, complemented by raised cut-stone flower beds. This private and beautifully maintained outdoor space provides an ideal setting for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying the sunshine.
