Patricia Stokes Auctioneers & Valuers are delighted to present to the market 41 Aylesbury a spacious light filled three bedroomed home in a superb location.  When launched to the market the new development of Aylesbury tag line was “Appreciation for Living” followed with “a fantastic opportunity to purchase a truly special home in a highly sought-after location.  Built to the highest specification with a host of energy efficiency features from underfloor heating, heat recovery system and Daikin air to water system it is easy to see why this home returns an A2 energy rating.  Finished in St Ives cream rustica brick complimented by a smooth plaster painted in a pleasing colour trend scheme along with some punches out zinc elements this home is appealing from the off.

The property has been owner occupied since its purchase in 2020 and has been exceptionally well cared for over its short life.  Rooms are bright and spacious and all bedrooms are double in size.  The property extends to an impressive 1,525 sq. ft. approx. The owner spared no expense in the quality of fittings from kitchen to sanitary ware and robes to tiling.  The accommodation in brief offers and inviting entrance hall, open plan kitchen cum dining room, extensive lounge, utility room and guest bathroom.  The top floor enjoys three double bedrooms with main bedroom en-suite and a family bathroom.  The property is fitted with air to water heating giving comfort underfoot in all reception rooms with traditional radiators in the bedrooms overhead.  The use of floor to ceiling deep set glazed bay window as well as glazed doors to the rear patio enhances the natural light and solar gain.  A beautifully enclosed patio off the kitchen cum dining room caters for outside space and is perfect for morning coffee or evening dining.  The front of the property has cobble lock drive way with ample parking set inside low wall finished in the St Ives brickwork.

The open areas within Aylesbury were well thought out at the early stages and is now beginning to pay dividends.  The open greens are well tended as are the common planted areas when on the second Saturday of each month those who are available come together to tend.  Grants from city council are available to communities vested in maintaining their areas and Aylesbury has taken full advantage with a shed now well stocked with all tools required.  A professional designer assisted in the design of the green spaces and thousands of spring bulbs planted bring burst of colour that last through the summer months.

The location of Aylesbury is second to none nestled in the neighbourhood of Ballintemple with the parishes of Blackrock and Ballinlough on its doorstep.  For those who may not be familiar with the location the amount of open green spaces, recreational activities, sporting clubs and schools are probably the most expansive Cork has to offer.  The open greens range from the renowned Beaumont Park directly across the road from the scheme.  This park has meandering paths and big open greens set against the backdrop of the old quarry.  The Japanese Gardens with Gus Healy swimming pool along with the tennis club and community grounds at Ballinlough are all within an easy walk.  The adjacent bustling village of Blackrock offers cafes as well as its popular weekly farmers market.  There is leisurely recreation catered for at the 8km loop of the Blackrock greenway walking and cycling path which extends from the city to Passage .  Cork city with all that it has to offer is within walking distance of this home.

Viewing of this home is a must to appreciate all that it has to offer.
