Description
This is an exciting opportunity to acquire an elegant Victorian (circa 1850) family home of exceptional character, located on this particularly handsome terrace, providing 240sqm / 2,583sqft (approx.) of wonderfully elegant and tastefully appointed accommodation with rear access to the garage and garden.
This is without question one of Dublin 4’s most convenient addresses being so close to the city centre and a range of local amenities. Anglesea Road is within walking distance of some of Dublin's finest junior and secondary schools, while both UCD Belfield and Trinity College, Dublin, are just a fifteen -minute bus ride away.
This warm and welcoming family home retains its pure Victorian (Circa 1850) interior, with fine original cornicing and ceiling roses, creating a wonderful sense of elegance and symmetry throughout. The large sash windows and the gracious proportions of the reception rooms provide quality natural light throughout.
At hall level, which is entered through the original hall door with fanlight, the accommodation briefly comprises a wide entrance hallway, and a drawing room which interconnects to the dining room. Both reception rooms retain their original marble fireplaces.
At garden level, there is separate access, with a boiler room/storeroom situated under the front steps. The large kitchen/ breakfast room has modern kitchen units supplied by Ryan Kitchens of Gorey, with elegant marble worktop/backsplash and marble surround counter. Double doors lead from the kitchen to the family room / bedroom 4 with wide plank Trunk flooring, and a Dover stove. Rational glass doors lead from the family room to the very spacious, sunny back garden. There is similar Trunk flooring in the basement hallway, together with additional understairs storage. A fully tiled shower room with double shower, wc and wash hand basin, together with utility room complete the accommodation at this level. On the first floor, there are three double bedrooms, two with original cast iron fireplaces, one with ensuite shower room, plus a family bathroom. A second laundry room is located on the top floor return.
To the front of the property, there is a beautifully landscaped railed garden with original granite steps to the hall door. The westerly facing back garden is 142ft long and laid out mainly in lawn with manicured flowering borders. A rear garage, with remote control shutter provides ample off-street parking, and would easily adapt to an EV charger. The garage space could be extended (subject to planning) to provide parking for four or more cars.
The property benefits from one of Dublin’s most convenient locations with an extensive choice of amenities within comfortable walking distance. Just some of these amenities include the excellent boutiques, speciality shops, restaurants and hotels in Ballsbridge and Donnybrook. Also close by are the extensive recreational amenities of Herbert Park and the Aviva stadium, the RDS (home of the Dublin Horse Show and Leinster Rugby) and numerous other tennis, rugby, and cricket clubs. The city centre is within 15 minutes’ drive with Dublin Airport being within 20 minutes’ drive via the Port Tunnel.
