Description
Allen & Jacobs is delighted to present No. 14 Grand Canal Street, an exceptional Victorian residence that has been comprehensively and architecturally redesigned to create a truly impressive contemporary family home. Behind its handsome period façade lies a beautifully conceived residence extending to approximately 159 sq.m., where original character and proportions have been seamlessly combined with contemporary design, high-quality materials and meticulous craftsmanship. The current owners have created a home of exceptional quality, with carefully considered interiors, bespoke finishes and an impressive level of specification throughout. Smart-home technology and modern energy-efficient systems have also been thoughtfully integrated without compromising the character of the property. The accommodation is both generous and exceptionally well balanced, with bright, spacious reception rooms flowing naturally into an impressive open-plan kitchen and breakfast area. The result is a home equally suited to family living and entertaining, with excellent proportions, abundant natural light and a strong sense of connection between the various living spaces. A particularly noteworthy feature is the substantial commercial unit, measuring approximately 68 sqm, positioned to the rear of the property, accessed independently from Emerald Cottages Lane. The unit could be converted into a two-bedroom townhouse, subject to planning permission (an application is currently in progress), presenting an exciting opportunity for the new owner. Subject to the necessary consents, the space could alternatively be incorporated into the existing property to create an exceptionally large private garden and provide off-street parking or retained as a commercial investment providing a separate rental income stream. The main house itself comprises three bedrooms, including a superb principal bedroom with feature walk-in wardrobes and ensuite, together with a series of beautifully appointed reception and living spaces. The attention to detail throughout is immediately apparent, from the Italian Cosmopolitan Calacatta Gold flooring and underfloor heating to the extensive integrated technology and security systems. This is a substantial and highly individual Victorian home in one of Dublin 4`s most desirable locations, offering a rare combination of period architecture, sophisticated contemporary living and significant additional development potential.
No. 14 occupies a superb position on Upper Grand Canal Street, within easy reach of some of Dublin 4`s most sought-after residential, commercial and leisure amenities.
Grand Canal Square, Ballsbridge, Baggot Street and Sandymount Village are all within comfortable walking distance, offering an excellent selection of cafés, restaurants, bars, boutiques and everyday amenities. The area is particularly well served for dining, with popular local establishments including Paulie`s Pizza, The Old Spot and The Cow all close by. For sports and entertainment, the Aviva Stadium and 3Arena are both nearby, while the IFSC and Dublin city centre are readily accessible. Grand Canal Dock and Lansdowne Road DART stations provide excellent public transport connections, with the East Link Bridge also offering convenient access to the northside and Dublin Port. The combination of its elegant period streetscape, proximity to the city and excellent selection of amenities makes Upper Grand Canal Street one of the most desirable addresses in Dublin 4.
