Description

No. 20 Mulgrave Terrace is a timeless villa residence of exceptional charm situated on the tranquil fringes of Dun Laoghaire. There are homes that make a wonderful first impression, and then there are homes that simply take your breath away. From the moment you arrive at the gates, this elegant villa-style home captivates. Immaculately presented and overflowing with kerb appeal, the approach sets the tone for everything that follows. A neat, gravelled driveway is framed by beautifully manicured lawns, with mature hydrangeas tumbling gracefully from well-stocked flower beds and elegant acer trees providing year-round colour and structure. Two perfectly matched bay trees stand proudly on either side of the front door, creating an entrance that is as welcoming as it is memorable. Stepping inside, a wide entrance hall immediately conveys the warmth and character that define this exceptional home. Richly stained wide-plank timber flooring draws your eye toward the split level staircase, a hallmark of this distinctive villa design. Off the entrance level, the home's wonderfully flexible layout becomes apparent. One of the enduring attractions of these classic villa homes is their versatility, allowing owners to tailor the accommodation to suit changing lifestyles. To one side of the hall, the elegant drawing room is a magnificent reception space. High ceilings, beautifully stained timber flooring and an original open fireplace combine to create a room of timeless character, while bespoke built-in shelving frames the fireplace beautifully. A large sliding sash window floods the room with natural light. Double doors connect seamlessly to the formal dining room, another wonderfully proportioned space featuring its own handsome fireplace and exquisite stained-glass detailing above the garden doors. Opening directly onto the rear garden, it offers a wonderful setting for entertaining both indoors and out. On the opposite side of the hall are two exceptionally generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is an elegant retreat, complete with a charming original fireplace, fitted wardrobes and an abundance of natural light. The second bedroom is almost equal in size, also benefiting from built-in wardrobes and peaceful garden views and feature cast iron fireplace. Upstairs, a further bedroom continues the home's thoughtful design. It features bespoke fitted joinery in the form of a cleverly designed raised sleeping platform and excellent integrated storage beneath, making an ideal bedroom/home office. A beautifully appointed family bathroom incorporating a hot press and generous storage cupboard completes the first floor, finished with Fired Earth sanitary ware and centred around a stunning antique roll-top bath, creating a luxurious space in which to unwind. Descending to the lower level reveals a nicely appointed shower room and a truly outstanding kitchen/dining room. Boasting a thoughtfully designed Shaker style kitchen with solid hardwood worktops, elegant display cabinetry and an abundance of storage and preparation space, it is a kitchen created equally for everyday family life and entertaining. Double doors open onto a wonderfully private, low-maintenance patio garden that wraps around the kitchen, seamlessly extending the living space outdoors. Designed for effortless entertaining, the garden is bordered by raised planting beds, currently alive with spectacular agapanthus, creating a peaceful and colourful setting throughout the warmer months. Steps up from the patio lead to a lawn area that wraps around the kitchen and then meets the double doors from the formal dining room. Few locations in South Dublin continue to evolve as successfully as Dun Laoghaire. Perfectly positioned on the fringes of the town centre, this home enjoys all the advantages of living within walking distance of every conceivable amenity while remaining peacefully removed from the bustle. Dun Laoghaire offers an exceptional lifestyle, with an impressive selection of cafés, restaurants, boutiques and everyday shopping, together with two shopping centres, the DART, a renowned theatre and cinema, and the spectacular coastline with its scenic walks, piers and four yacht clubs. Adding further appeal, the charming coastal villages of Glasthule and Monkstown sit on either side of Dun Laoghaire, offering an even wider choice of artisan cafés, acclaimed restaurants and independent shops that have made this stretch of Dublin Bay one of the capital's most sought-after addresses. Families will also appreciate the excellent selection of highly regarded primary and secondary schools nearby, together with superb transport links providing easy access to Dublin City Centre and beyond. Combining timeless architecture, beautifully maintained gardens, versatile accommodation and an unrivalled coastal location, this is a home of exceptional quality that effortlessly balances classic elegance with comfortable modern living.
