Superb opportunity to acquire a unique period townhouse in a prime town centre location along with an established menswear shop with a sitting tenant.
This house enjoys an extremely convenient location with a wide range of amenities within touching distance. Located within 20m of Church Street, with views of the River Shannon, this property is a five-minute walk to the train and bus station serving Dublin and the West. Athlone Town Centre and Golden Island Shopping Centres are within a 5-10 minutes walk. Access to the Greenway is also less than 5 minutes and there is a great selection of excellent cafes, restaurants and bars within a short stroll.
As a terraced, two-bay, three storey house containing a recessed arch with an oriel window and unique brickwork, its most unique design and adds curiosity to the streetscape. This house was built by Robert Smith in 1895, who was a major local builder at the time. Behind its attractive facade this house features a much loved, character filled interior which could be lovingly modernised by the potential purchaser.
Separated into a 4-bedroom house and retail unit, the property still retains much of its natural beauty with its large open hallway, 10ft high ceilings in drawing room, ornate coving and rear courtyard. The courtyard yard includes a rear shed, opening out to Paradise Row in the back.
One would need to view to fully appreciate what this unique town centre home has to offer.
