Description
A pocket sized mansion hidden in plain sight, this period home is more akin to something you'd find in London than in a quiet corner of Monkstown. Charm personified from the moment you lay your eyes on it, it is an incredibly unique coastal retreat which comes with access to the private railed gardens enjoyed solely by residents of De Vesci Terrace, which was developed in the 1830's. The house itself extends to 72sq.m. approx. and the studio with shower room extends to a further 11sq.m approx. As you arrive at the property the rich hue of the deep scarlet Virginia creeper that clads the perimeter wall and softly frames the entryway sets the tone of the beauty this home has to offer. Stepping through the tongue and groove door from the footpath into the secluded courtyard you will find a pretty facade of a period mews topped with a weathervane. There is also access through to a separate double fronted studio with shower room that could be a fantastic guest suite/study or could imaginatively be connected to the main dwelling, creating a larger ground floor footprint, subject to planning permission. As you step into the mews the size of entryway, with feature ceiling dome and marble flooring, functions as a nicely appointed dining area that is open through to the living room which envelops you in comfort, elegance and warmth. The feature marble surround fireplace has a unique cast iron inset with a gas fire and the chimney breast is flanked by classic fitted storage and display shelving. The kitchen was recently modernised and has ample Shaker style units that are decorated in a lovely pale blue colour that wonderfully compliment the decorative tiled splashback behind the Aga. The elegant and sweeping staircase curves beautifully around the open well and is a standout feature in it's own right. The first floor, with storage on the landing, has a double bedroom with sliding sash windows and a tastefully designed bathroom sits perfectly within the character of this home. On the opposite side of the courtyard there is separate studio room with shower en-suite. De Vesci Gardens are opposite the property with 4 acres approximately of mature private parkland exclusively for the use of the residents. Also located in the gardens is De Vesci Gardens Tennis Club with floodlit clay courts. No.11 is a few short minutes' walk from Dun Laoghaire, Monkstown and the locality's scenic coastline. Residents will enjoy great ease of access to all the areas vast selection of amenities including specialist delicatessens, popular cafes and restaurants, boutiques and excellent transport links including the Dart. There are endless marine leisure facilities along the coastline including four sailing clubs and other sporting clubs that include hockey, tennis, golf and rugby.
