Description
Montpelier is a truly exceptional, carefully restored, delightful and beautifully curated family home of distinction built circa 1860. Beyond the handsome façade lies a very special and unique home. As you drive through the entrance gates you know this is a home of real distinction, with the beautifully landscaped forecourt and the recently re pointed facade, this sets the tone of what is to follow.
On entering any buyer will be captivated by the light and space within the house. The 3.6m ceiling heights and room proportions are gracious and the contemporary kitchen extension and family room blend seamlessly together creating a truly special family home.
The bespoke kitchen area with aged oak herringbone flooring and large island unit/breakfast bar with overhead atrium is delightful and opens into the breakfast room via concealed pocket doors. Bi-fold doors open to reveal the amazing family room with rustic oak mantle and multi fuel cast iron stove. The large utility room leads off the family room. French doors from both the informal dining area and family room open into enclosed courtyards.
The beautifully proportioned formal drawing and dining rooms with their original ornate ceilings and antique marble fireplaces are beautifully appointed and are ideal for entertaining at home.
Overhead there are five generous double bedrooms (three of which are ensuite) and a family bathroom. The main bedroom enjoys superb sea views across Dublin Bay to Howth.
Montpelier sits on a site of approx. 0.6 acre – there is a private enclosed courtyard which is further complimented with a one bedroom, cut stone coach house. The coach house like the main house is beautifully curated and offers extremely flexible accommodation. The courtyards themselves have power points and additional storage.
A flight of steps leads up to the expansive southwest facing rear garden, where you have two paved terraced areas ideal for alfresco dining. There is also a large outbuilding suitable for many uses. Also, there is vehicular and pedestrian access to the rear onto a laneway accessed off Cunningham Road. This area of the garden could very well offer long term potential for an additional house, subject to the necessary planning permission.
Situated on Ardeevin Road, it enjoys an elevated vista over Dublin Bay across to Howth Head. Montpelier not only presents itself as an exceptional superior residence with its unrivalled location, which will have great appeal to discerning buyers seeking an outstanding family home in turnkey condition.
