Description
Wonderfully elegant Victorian residence of considerable style and character on Elton Park which is widely regarded as one of Dublin's premier residential roads.
Laid out over three floors and an ancillary mews this particularly attractive period residence, which underwent extensive modernisation and refurbishment in 2015, provides 2,615 sq. ft. of stunningly elegant accommodation. It has retained numerous period features including restored tall sash windows and shutters, original Victorian wide plank wooden floors, gallery staircase and handsome fireplaces.
The generous accommodation comprises a light filled entrance hall, two stunning interconnecting reception rooms, a study, and guest w.c. at hall level. At garden level there is generous under step and under stair storage, entrance hall with access to the front garden and parking area, a family room, a superb bespoke in-frame fitted kitchen with Carrara marble countertop, laundry room and guest w.c.. The kitchen area opens out into the rear garden.
Upstairs at first floor level, there are three double bedrooms, a bathroom and a family bathroom.
The appeal of this incredibly special property is that it is complemented by a stunning mews property to the rear. With a floor area of 91 sq. m. it comprises of a double car garage with excellent storage and an overhead loft area with a self-contained one bedroom living space ancillary to the main house.
The grounds to the property are beautifully maintained and to the front there is car parking for one car on a gravelled forecourt with wonderfully planted mature borders and paved seating area. There are granite steps up to the hall door and there are also steps giving access to the basement entrance where there is a south facing sunny patio area. The rear garden is a wonderful tranquil oasis. Mostly laid in lawn with herbaceous borders and mature trees, there is an Indian sandstone paved patio ideal for al fresco dining.
The location needs little introduction - close to both Dalkey and Sandycove with their excellent shops, restaurants and sea front walks - the property is within walking distance of the renowned multi-denominational Castlepark School, the DART and a bus route. Also close by are amenities including sailing, golfing, Killiney Hill and tennis. Accommodation
