Lot 5488782, (2) 5 Ardee Terrace, Dundalk, Co. Louth, A91H9C7

Sale Type: For Sale by Private Treaty
Overall Floor Area: 98 m² Welcome to a fantastic blend of old and new at 5 Ardee Terrace. This period and listed home was built in the late 1800's by the Great Northern Rail (GNR) as part of their policy of creating a company of people and places: its chief and first engineer, William Hemingway Mills, was responsible for Ardee Terrace and adjacent Brook Terrace, and they stand now as wonderful examples of late 1800's housing. Mills was responsible for creating the GNR's brand of architectural style for the new railway company, and in turn created an identity: of company, place and people*.

Ardee Terrace enjoys a location that is within walking distance of town centre, schools, train station and all amenities, yet it is just far enough away from the high street to gain more space and quiet.
Number 5 is a mid terrace two storey red brick-fronted dwelling of immense character - it boasts many original features, but has been substantially refurbished with modern windows, heating, a high degree of insulation and rewiring, so it effectively operates as well – if not better than – a modern dwelling.

Extended to rear with a modern kitchen and dining area, and with the bathroom relocated to first floor, number 5 also has a lovely fully walled back garden with patio.

Entrance hall with lovely check tiled floor, archway and pitch pine doors. First reception room to left has lovely proportions, high ceilings, stripped solid wood floor and fireplace. Second reception has a modern fireplace and a modern feature of glazed panels which let natural light in.

The dining area and kitchen form the extension with French door to that gorgeous back garden. The fully equipped kitchen has tiled floor, roof window unit and a good use of space.
Note the fantastic extra storage space under the stairs.

Upstairs, some lovely original features including original cast iron fireplaces in bedroom 3 and bathroom. There are two double bedrooms and 1 single room. The bathroom is great with features red brick wall, panelling and bath.

The property enjoys a quiet spot adjacent to the Ardee Road and also has access to a shared rear laneway. Please note the property is a protected structure and is therefore BER Exempt.
