Description
Well set back from the road lies this most impressive family home which has been completely transformed in recent times. Originally built in the early 1930's this fine, bay windowed, part red brick family home has been renovated and extended to exacting standards and is presented in turnkey condition throughout. The current owners worked closely with architects "Optimise Design" in creating this truly desirable residence in this most sought-after location.
Wonderfully positioned overlooking Clontarf promenade and the local landmark “The Baths” one gets to enjoy the ever-changing vistas from the comfort of this C1 rated home. Internally much focus has been given to creating a warm, stylish and inviting home where the charm and proportions of the older home marry seamlessly with the comforts and conveniences of the new extensions.
One could not ask for a more convenient location where a short walk will bring you to Clontarf village with its myriad of local boutique shops, cafes and restaurants and the Wooden bridge giving access to the nature reserve and Dollymount strand. A short distance in the opposite direction brings you to the heart city centre in less than 15 minutes. Sporting enthusiasts can enjoy many recreational facilities and sports clubs including Clontarf Rugby & Cricket Club, a selection of golf clubs (including The Royal Dublin and St Anne's golf clubs). Commuting further afield is also easily accessible with both the M50 and the M1 motorways located very close by, Dublin airport is within 15 minutes' drive. The area is very well serviced by public transport with a selection of bus routes with Clontarf DART station a 20-minute walk away.
Garden

A gated side entrance leads to a large rear garden which measures 155ft approx. in length and features an expansive patio area with Italian porcelain non-slip tiles, opening onto a large lawn area bordered by mature shrubbery and trees.
