Having successfully concluded its final spring auctions, Galway city based agents Property Partners Maxwell & Heaslip is preparing for the first of the summer auctions tomorrow in the Imperial Hotel in Eyre Square. Two more properties are expected to fall under the hammer in what is expected to be a busy afternoon.
The second of the spring-time auctions will see two completely different properties go under the hammer in what director Alan Maxwell promises will be an engaging event. “Both properties offer a mix which will appeal to a range of buyers from across the spectrum, but the one thing that the properties have in common is that they are very attractively priced and have generated unprecedented viewings between them,” he said.
The first property to go under the hammer will be No 128 Laurel Park, Newcastle. A neat and compact three bedroom semidetached house, presented in tip-top condition, No 128 offers a great opportunity to either the first time buyer or a canny investor. An excellent location within a short distance of both NUIG and UHG, Laurel Park is close to the city and on a main bus route and is a popular rental area. Close to schools, shops, and recreational amenities, it will appeal equally to single people and young families. An off street parking space is enclosed by double gates, and a side entrance gives access to a well kept west facing rear garden. Internally No 128 is in perfect condition and well maintained, with oil-fired heating and PVC double glazed windows and external doors. The AMV of € 200,000 represents exceptional value for money. The solicitor handling the carriage of sale is Susan Egan of Emerson & Conway solicitors, Francis Street.
The second property to be offered to the market is No 62 Windfield Gardens, Clybaun Road. An outstanding detached family residence, located in a well established development of similar style homes, all with well-kept mature gardens, with no through traffic and offering a wonderful overall ambience of a settled community with pride in its surroundings. No 62 is beautifully presented both externally and internally; the neat paved entrance drive and front garden create a favourable first impression, and the rear garden is equally attractive with a large paved patio area set off by the trim lawns and mature shrubberies. Raised beds are an added feature and make for easy maintenance.
Inside No 62 all is well ordered and easy on the eye. Polished solid timber floors are warm and family friendly and proportions are generous and well appointed. Three reception rooms and five bedrooms make this a super home for a growing family and the substantial kitchen accommodates a large table. In addition to the en suite master bedroom, there is a superb family bathroom, fully tiled in a warm cream finish, and an invaluable generously sized downstairs wc. As would be expected in a house of this standard, there is a full oil-fired heating system and double glazing throughout. The standard of décor and of fixtures and fittings is first class. Built in the 90s by Inchagoill Builders, No 62 is a fine example of a well-built, solid, family home and is being offered for auction with a very reasonable AMV of €400,000. Elizabeth Cazabon of Cazabon solicitors is overseeing the carriage of sale.
The auctions will take place at 3pm in the recently refurbished Imperial Hotel, Eyre Square, Galway. Further particulars in relation to this auction can be had from Alan Maxwell or James Heaslip of Property Partners Maxwell & Heaslip at 091 565261.
