Description

A charming detached period home of immense character perched on a spectacular elevated site overlooking the picturesque village of Howth. Mount St Mary’s is surrounded by generous mature gardens providing excellent privacy and seclusion while the interior currently extends to an impressive c 2,700 sq ft / c 250 sq m. The well maintained gardens occupy a large corner site where Thormanby Road meets Nashville Road, a favoured elevated location just a short walk from Howth village below. Spectacular views over the city, Irelands Eye , Lambay Island and the northern coastline towards Skerries and beyond are enjoyed from almost every room. The views are equally spectacular by day and night as the cities lights shimmer in the distance from dusk. The local fishing port and yachting marina provide plenty of marine activity to gaze at as vessels sail to and fro across Balscadden Bay below. The wonderful interior is well balanced with four principle rooms on either floor. Each is perfectly proportioned and ordained with features synonymous with architecture of this era. Notable features include generous floor to ceiling heights in all rooms, ornate decorative plaster coving & centre roses in most rooms, original timber joinery throughout and six remarkable original marble fireplaces with cast iron insets- all in excellent condition. Wide Bays with long timber sash windows offer breathtaking views out over the village and the bay below while the symmetry and balance between each internal space set this home apart. The kitchen is located in its original position at present with access to the outside stores and pantry via a few small steps. This space, along with other areas will require general upgrading and modernising. Mount St Mary’s has been maintained in excellent order over the years although it is now dated by modern standards. This is a unique home with a distinguished classical appearance. Combining its natural aesthetic appeal with its extraordinary convenience and its splendid views provide its fortunate new owner with a once in a lifetime opportunity to create something truly magical here. Viewing can be arranged by contacting Gallagher Quigley at 01-8183000.
