Rarely does a home come on the market with such eye-catching details as Lisnalea.

Located in The Vinery on Summerville Avenue in Waterford City, this charming three-bed bungalow has a 1930's period style and oozes charm and character both inside and out.

The property stands out the minute you clasp your eyes on it due its colour-filled mature gardens with the inside beautifully decorated in a style, which only amplifies its appeal.

Lisnalea is located in the beautiful, leafy private cul-de-sac of The Vinery, which is home to just seven private homes, fronted by the Victorian Summerville House.

One of the most sought-after locations in Waterford City, this fantastic home offers 112sqm of living space.

The accommodation comprises of an entrance hallway, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, dressing room, two double bedrooms, together with a third bedroom / home office.

Upon entering the property, the entrance hall greets you with moody blue tones with contrasting deep wooden flooring. All rooms are accessed off this central hallway, with the living room being the first.

This bright and airy reception room has a dual aspect from the window and French doors with garden views from both aspects.

The sitting room is decorated with original wood flooring, sophisticated brown wall colours with picture rail border and cream upper walls, a Portland stone fireplace and Roman blinds to the windows.

The dining room comes complete with original wood flooring, a wallpapered finish and handmade curtains, together with a slate fireplace.

The kitchen is presented in an earthy green colour with contrasting terracotta floor tiles. 

Above the kitchen table is an oval-shaped feature window, with other kitchen features, including an oiled fired Aga cooker.

The current layout allows for two bedrooms and a sizable home office, which would make for a very comfortable double bedroom. All three rooms have garden views, and access to the main bathroom, which is sympathetically decorated in keeping with the stylish interior of the property.
