Description
A truly exceptional five-bedroom period residence, 20 Windsor Road is a meticulously restored and extended home of distinction, offering approx. 260 sq. m / 2,800 sq. ft. of elegant accommodation. Nestled on one of Dublin 6`s most sought-after tree-lined avenues, this superb property seamlessly blends timeless architectural detail with contemporary luxury.
A grand entrance hall sets the tone for this magnificent house, featuring an attractive fanlight above the hall door that allows for plenty of natural light. The hall leads to a central staircase connecting all floors, beautifully framed by bespoke wood panelling, distressed oak flooring, and adorned with ornate ceiling coving and an intricate ceiling rose all combining to create an atmosphere of timeless elegance.
To the left of the hall lies a gracious reception room, featuring an elegant marble fireplace, a sash window with working shutters, and a view overlooking the front of the property. Adjacent to this, the spacious family room mirrors the same sense of refinement with a marble fireplace, wall panelling, and matching distressed oak flooring. Continuing through the hall, one finds the fully fitted kitchen and orangery, both presented in a refined New England style. The kitchen features solid wood cabinetry, Carrara marble counters, and premium appliances. The adjoining orangery, crafted from rare Adigbo hardwood, opens onto the sun-drenched garden through six bi-folding doors. A spacious and practical utility room is fully plumbed for a washing machine and dryer, and features terracotta mosaic flooring, built-in presses, and ample countertop workspace. The home offers three luxurious bathrooms, adorned with Travertine marble from Antica, Hansgrohe fittings, and underfloor heating. There are five beautifully appointed bedrooms, including a generous principal suite with dressing room and ensuite, while all rooms are enhanced by distressed oak flooring and New England shutters.
To the rear, the garden provides a private oasis with tropical planting, granite pathways, an artificial lawn, and a mature apple tree, complemented by a sun terrace, BBQ area, and rear laneway access. The front garden completes the picture with granite steps, wrought iron railings, and manicured Buxus hedging that frame the elegant façade.
