By using Templeton Robinson we had more viewings in the first week than we ever had. Moreover the feedback was tremendous with all viewers being telephoned the next day for their opinions, with these comments then being relayed to us. Not only that, all first viewings were conducted by your staff, only second viewings being conducted by ourselves. Also all phone calls about the property were logged and sent by email to us.
The strange thing was, all the companies were charging the same commission! All in all a fantastic service, don't try the rest, use the best.

Neil, just to say a big thank you for all your and your team’s help with selling our property. A few tricky and stressful moments but with your help, we got there in the end! We’ll be sure to give you a ring when we decide to downsize.

I have dealt with Neil Templeton re the sale and purchase of various homes over a period of almost twenty years and can thoroughly recommend him. His professional, pragmatic and friendly approach has always made what can be a stressful and daunting process as smooth and painless as possible. The sale of my most recent home has just successfully completed and he provided me with excellent service and communication throughout. (The TR photographer also deserves a special mention for producing a beautiful series of pictures of my home). The eventual selling price far exceeded my expectations so obviously I am delighted. Thank you again to Neil and the Templeton Robinson team at Ballyhackamore!

Description
Modernised to an exacting standard by the current owner-occupiers within the past three years, this delightful, double-fronted semi is beautifully presented throughout.
Fully re-wired and re-plumbed (including new water mains connections), "Dunkeld" still exudes the warmth and character associated with a property dating back to 1888.
In addition to two new ensuites and a family bathroom, the insulation has been much-improved throughout. This along with ethernet connections for superfast broadband will appeal to those now working from home.
Externally this is complemented by ample driveway parking behind electric gates and a lovely, good-sized back garden which enjoys a south-westerly orientation.
A short stroll to the heart of thriving Ballyhackamore Village, leading schools for all ages are also in the vicinity.
Early, internal inspection is an absolute must.
