Description
Sherry FitzGerald is delighted to present 11 The Crescent, an elegant and beautifully proportioned Georgian residence, ideally positioned on one of Clontarf's most iconic terraces overlooking Crescent Park. This distinguished four-bedroom, three-bathroom home blends refined period charm with generous, light-filled accommodation extending to approx. 214 sq. m (2,303 sq. ft).
Constructed in 1792, The Crescent holds a unique place in Dublin's architectural and literary history. The Crescent development is believed to be the birthplace of famed Gothic writer Bram Stoker, and is the perfect example of Georgian urban planning, characterised by its harmonious terraces and landscaped setting adjacent to the coast. Today, this leafy and tranquil address remains one of Clontarf's most desirable locations, offering proximity to the city centre, stunning coastal walks and a vibrant community atmosphere.
No. 11 offers an abundance of period features including sash windows, stained glass, ornate ceiling coving, decorative roses and exquisite cast-iron fireplaces, all thoughtfully preserved and restored to reflect the home's heritage. The elegant reception rooms to the front of the property are flooded with natural light and framed by high ceilings and classic proportions, ideal for both everyday family living and formal entertaining.
The accommodation is arranged over four levels and offers exceptional flexibility and space for modern living. The main entrance on the ground floor opens to a gracious hallway, with interconnecting reception rooms. This level also includes a family bathroom. The stairs lead you down to the basement level where you will find the spacious kitchen and living area with separate utility room. Access to the basement level is accessible from the ground level to the front and rear. Upstairs, four generous double bedrooms are accompanied by two bathrooms, one of which is an ensuite. Externally, a particular feature of this fine home is its extensive rear garden — a rare and valuable asset in this setting. Mature and private, it offers ample space for outdoor dining, play or even further landscaping potential for the keen gardener and benefits from having rear lane pedestrian access.
Located within walking distance of Clontarf Village, residents enjoy immediate access to a wealth of amenities including coastal walks along Clontarf's promenade and ever-popular St Anne's Park. There are a host of amenities close by including specialist boutique, shops, excellent schools, cafes, restaurants and recreational facilities such as Clontarf Yacht & Boat Club, Westwood Fitness Club and a selection of sports clubs. The area is well serviced by public transport with a choice of bus route on the Howth Road and the Clontarf DART Station is within a short 500 metres providing swift access to the city and beyond.
This is a truly special property in a historic and sought-after setting — a rare opportunity to acquire a home of character and scale in one of Dublin's most prestigious addresses.
