Description
In setting out to build their dream home, the owners of No. 5A sought to create a modern, comfortable family residence with a striking interior that would maximise every inch of this original south-east facing corner site. In achieving this, they have delivered far more than originally envisaged. Completed in 2019, this impressive detached home boasts an enviable A3 BER rating and offers a superb balance of style, functionality and energy efficiency.
As you approach No. 5A, nestled within a quiet residential setting, it is immediately apparent that this is a standout contemporary home that sits comfortably among its neighbours. The exterior is bold yet sympathetic, enhanced by attractive brick detailing at garden level. Thoughtful design elements reveal themselves on closer inspection, including dual-aspect corner windows to both the front and rear bedrooms, allowing natural light to flood the interior throughout the day.
Upon entering, a spacious and welcoming hallway sets the tone for the quality found throughout. To the front lies a separate living room with bespoke built-in shelving, beautifully illuminated by a large picture window and a cleverly positioned low-level window, offering views of arrivals at the front door while seated.
To the rear, the open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area is truly the heart of the home and has been exceptionally well designed for modern family living. The kitchen features sleek dark grey wall units and an island unit incorporating a dining area, all finished with elegant Calacatta quartz worktops. This space flows effortlessly, enhanced by a stunning slimline, triple-glazed Aumil sliding door system that opens directly onto the garden. A recessed ceiling with integrated lighting, along with a large glazed roof light, ensures exceptional ceiling height and an abundance of natural light.
Underfloor heating runs throughout the ground floor, complemented by clever understairs storage. A guest WC and neatly concealed utility room are accessed via pocket doors, ensuring all day-to-day practicalities are discreetly tucked away, with direct access to the side passage.
Upstairs, the first floor comprises three well-proportioned bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family bathroom with attic access. The principal bedroom is located to the rear and benefits from built-in wardrobes and a stylish en-suite shower room, while two further bedrooms are positioned to the front of the house.
To the front of the property, there is off-street parking for two cars, bordered by a high wall for privacy. Pedestrian access leads to the rear garden, which has been tastefully landscaped with a lawn framed by paving and planting. A patio dining area provides the perfect space for outdoor entertaining, while a large garden shed offers excellent additional storage.
The location is second to none, with a wealth of amenities both social and essential close at hand. Parke Point (accessed via a greenway through Honey Park), Blackrock, Monkstown, Dun Laoghaire, Deansgrange and Killiney Shopping Centre all offer excellent shopping and services. The N11, QBC and M50 are within easy reach, ensuring superb connectivity. Educational facilities are exceptionally well catered for, with Rathdown, Monkstown Educate Together, CBC Monkstown, Loreto Dalkey and Foxrock, St Joseph of Cluny and IADT all nearby, along with direct bus routes to UCD.
