Description
1 Avoca Terrace represents a truly exceptional opportunity to acquire a distinguished end-of-terrace, two-storey over basement Victorian residence, superbly positioned on Avoca Avenue—widely regarded as one of South Dublin's most prestigious and sought-after addresses.
Originally constructed circa 1850, this elegant period home was long ago subdivided into three generous apartments. Today, it offers immense potential to be reimagined and restored into a magnificent single family residence of considerable character and distinction, in a location of enduring appeal.
Extending to approximately 400 sq.m. (4,305 sq.ft.), the property boasts bright, generously proportioned accommodation laid out over three levels. Each floor benefits from excellent natural light, enhancing the sense of space and highlighting the many fine period features that remain intact. The existing layout provides notable flexibility, whether for continued use as an investment property or for comprehensive refurbishment into a substantial private home.
While the interior now requires modernisation, the property has been well maintained over the years and presents a superb blank canvas for a discerning purchaser. There is significant scope to restore original architectural details while seamlessly incorporating contemporary design and modern comforts to suit individual tastes and lifestyle requirements.
The property enjoys wrap-around, lawned gardens which are part bordered by cut stone granite walls and benefits from a most attractive outlook overlooking an open green. The generous patio area to the rear of the property has a west-facing sunny orientation further enhancing its sense of tranquillity and appeal.
Ideally located in the heart of Blackrock, 1 Avoca Terrace benefits from exceptional convenience. A wealth of highly regarded primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, making it an ideal choice for families. Blackrock Village is just a short stroll away and offers an excellent selection of boutique shops, cafés, restaurants and coastal amenities. The area is exceptionally well served by public transport, including the DART and numerous bus routes, ensuring swift and easy access to Dublin City Centre and beyond. Accommodation
