When you turn into Dalton Drive off Dr Mannix Road, you immediately see why so many people would love to call this home. Dalton Drive is in the heart of Salthill just a stroll from the Promenade and is a beautiful tree lined avenue with wide footpaths and large grass verges in front of each house on both sides of the road. Such residential developments are a thing of the past, built when large gardens and spacious living accommodation were not additional extras. No 3 Dalton Drive is one of the very few homes to be offered for sale on Dalton Drive since its construction just over 45 years ago. Number 3 has been lovingly maintained and is ready to move into.
The entrance hall is extremely wide and bright with an original solid timber parquet floor. Off the entrance hall there is a sitting room, separate dining room, and kitchen. The sitting room, which is to the front of the house, is bright and spacious and has an open fireplace. The dining room also has a marble fireplace and sliding patio door opening onto a huge west facing back garden. In addition to all this ground floor space, there is a new ground floor bedroom with new shower and toilet, ideal for a dependant relative or as a play room, study, or a den for the children.
The space and brightness of this home continues upstairs where there are four bedrooms, three double rooms and a spacious single. The bathroom is fully tiled and fitted with electric shower. The attic has a folding attic stairs for ease of access and offers the potential to convert, subject to planning. If you have not already fallen in love with this home the back garden will certainly swing it. The incredible 80ft x 40ft back garden is west facing, and is perfect for summer barbecues where your guests can soak up the summer sun all day.
The most important thing about any house is the location and the independence that location can give a family as it grows. With Dalton Drive everything is within walking distance, from excellent primary and secondary schools for both boys and girls to every sport facility from Gaelic football, hurling, soccer, camogie, tennis club, golf club, Leisureland, parks, beaches, Promenade, church, and shops — no more sitting in traffic bringing them to and fro.
