Much and all as they would like to claim sole selling rights to that great cheese ball in the sky, city agent DNG Maxwell Heaslip and Leonard is instead highlighting a lunar flavour to its latest offering in the exclusive Taylor’s Hill area.
Langrenus, for those less associated with lunar matters, is named after one of the most striking landscapes that can be seen when observing Earth’s moon via telescope. Just in the past week DNG Maxwell Heaslip & Leonard has launched the third of a succession of premium properties in the Taylor’s Hill area, and already the enquiries are flowing to selling agent Alan Maxwell. “Our two previous sales in the area have been quite different and appealed to different markets, but both have proved that when the location is right, there are multiple parties out there looking to buy,” Mr Maxwell said.
Langrenus, which is an imposing property directly opposite the Dominican secondary school, is one which he says has many of the essential ingredients on everyone’s wish list. This property has one of the best locations in the city with both primary and secondary schools across the road, and every other facility within a very short distance. Both NUIG and UHG are a manageable stroll, and children can easily walk to GAA facilities, swimming pools, leisure centre, and a host of other amenities.
This three storey home was built in the early 1970s on a site of one third of an acre. Quite a site when you consider a plot of this size would easily accommodate two or three sizeable properties in more recent housing developments. The original construction provided for a two floor family home over a ground level garden flat, which was quite common for the time. Both the living room and kitchen/diner run the full depth of the house with extensive use of large windows in both, which provides a spacious and light filled feel to the property.
With a total build of 3,100sq ft this is an impressive floor area, and with eight bedrooms this home really could accommodate any family. Undoubtedly this is a home that will be considered for renovation, or indeed there are those who have looked with a view to a total reconstruction project to build a modern home on this large site. Either way, those who are keen observers of the Galway property market know that when a property such as this is offered for sale, the savvy buyers raise their antenna and take notice.
Viewing is strictly by appointment with agents DNG Maxwell Heaslip & Leonard, phone 091 565261, and Alan Maxwell is looking after this sale.
