Set at the western gateway to Cork city at Gaol Cross opposite the gates to UCC is the lovely four/ five bedroomed semi-detached home know as Santa Cruz. The property, part of a pair of semis built in 1950 has its accommodation laid out over two levels and sits on mature gardens front, rear and side. This home has the added benefit of a corner site with detached garage and shed to the side that could, with planning permission lend itself to conversion/inclusion into the house. The property retains many of the features expected from a home built at this time with spacious and bright rooms at both levels, picture rails and fireplaces in rooms at ground and first floor. The accommodation extends to approx. 128.22 sq. mt. (1,380 sq. ft.) and in brief offers recessed entrance, reception hall, lounge, open plan kitchen cum dining room, home office/bedroom 5, and guest WC all at ground floor level. The first floor is home to four bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The property is appealing from the off, painted in neutral appealing colours with redbrick reveals. The unusual feature of a balcony at first floor level with its southerly aspect captures all day sunshine. The property is fitted with triple glazed windows throughout and boasts a C3 energy rating.
The location is second to none positioned in one of Cork’s most convenient and well-connected residential locations and is an outstanding opportunity for families, professionals, and investors alike. The property sits on the doorstep of University College Cork (UCC). It is also incredibly convenient for working professionals at Mercy University Hospital, the Bon Secours Hospital, and the Tyndall National Institute. For recreation as you step out the front door you are connected directly onto the Mardyke framed by mature trees, the River Lee, and beautifully landscaped grounds with Fitzgerald's Park, featuring stunning rose gardens, the Cork Public Museum, and the iconic Shaky Bridge.
The property is well set back from the road giving it exceptional privacy. The rear garden is extensive, lawned and enclosed with plenty of maturity in the trees surrounding its boundary. To the side there is a detached garage that lends itself to upgrading depending on the purchasers’ requirements. The front garden is lawned and enclosed with extensive driveway giving lots of parking.
