Description
The property has undergone a total renovation, remodelling and had a kitchen extension added since it was purchased by the current owners in 2012. The kitchen was custom designed and installed by Enigma Design who also installed fitted wardrobes in the four bedrooms along with custom designed desks in two of them and also in the Home Office. The five bathrooms were completely remodelled, three with showers and one which also has a free standing bath. There is a four-zone gas fired heating system with solar panels. Cast iron radiators were installed throughout along with wood burning stoves in both the Living and Family Rooms. Off street parking for two cars has been newly installed (following the recent Grant of Planning) and has been wired for an electric car charger.
Laid out over three floors, this particularly attractive period residence provides 319 sq. m. of stunningly elegant accommodation which has retained numerous period features including ornate and intricate coving and cornicing, panelled doors and architraves, tall sash windows and shutters, original Victorian wide plank wooden floors, gallery staircase and handsome fireplaces.
The generous accommodation briefly comprises a light filled hall, a Living Room, and a Home Office / Den along with a w.c. / shower room and bedroom at hall level. There are three further bedrooms and 3 bathrooms on the upper floors and return and at garden level a superb family room, dining/galley kitchen with atrium ceiling, utility / laundry room, guest w.c. and understairs storage.
The appeal of this very special property is the beautiful south facing rear garden which enjoys sunshine from late morning until evening. This area is laid out in paved patio with well planted and mature raised beds.
The location needs little introduction – located between Dalkey Town and Sandycove & Glasthule with their excellent shops, restaurants and sea front walks. The property is within 5 minutes’ walk of Sandycove Beach and the Forty Foot Bathing area and just a 10 minute walk from Dalkey or Glasthule both of which have DART stations.
