Lynch auctioneers presents to the market this recently modernised three bedroom family home. No 22 Costello Road is a superb three bedroom end-of-terrace property, measuring approximately 100 sq metres, located in the increasingly popular area of Shantalla.
Costello Road boasts an admirable community spirit with a wonderful neighbourhood sentiment. It is within walking distance of Galway city centre, Salthill, and University of Galway, while University Hospital Galway is just across the road.
This property was constructed in the mid-1940s and has been owner occupied since its construction. It has benefited from recent renovations and restoration works, bringing it up to modern day standards, including fitting of new solid oak shaker style doors throughout, skirting and architrave, new windows and flooring throughout and a new bathroom.
On entering this beautiful home, you are greeted with a bright entrance hall; to the left is the main living area with original feature fireplace. To the rear of the ground floor is the dining room which boasts a lovely fire surround and solid fuel stove, and the kitchen is situated just off the dining area, through an open doorway. There is a back door exit leading out on to an enclosed south facing garden, which is a sun trap on sunny days.
On the first floor there are three spacious bedrooms, two of which boast the original small fireplaces, and there is a fully tiled main bathroom which has recently been completely modernised. Externally the property boasts a front tarmac driveway with space to park two cars, a large side garden and a south facing spacious rear garden. There is also a concrete storage shed to the rear. The advantage of the large side garden lends itself to a variety of uses and extension, subject to planning permission.
This impressive family home is a leisurely stroll from Galway city centre, a variety of primary and secondary schools, and all amenities. Also within easy reach are a variety of famous restaurants in Galway’s West End and Latin Quarter. Salthill Promenade is a relaxing stroll away, as are a number of shopping centres including Westside Shopping Centre, West City Centre which houses Aldi, and the shopping centres on the Headford Road are also within easy reach.
No 22 must be viewed to really appreciate its spacious living accommodation. Although the house has been modernised in recent times, it still holds on to some of the distinctive character with original features, giving it a comfortable and cosy feel. This property would be an ideal purchase for a first time buyer, family, or as a gilt edged investment. Viewing is highly recommended.
