Description

As pretty as a picture inside and out! 213 Rathmines Road Upper is a very attractive 4-bedroom Edwardian residence, which has been comprehensively refurbished inside and out and now presents with extended living space, a clever attic conversion and stylish contemporary interior, which showcases many of the original features, all of which is further complemented by a private south-westerly rear garden. Well set back from the road and approached via a formal landscaped garden with an abundance of greenery and pretty quarry-tiled footpath, it is hard not to be impressed by the handsome façade of this Edwardian terraced red brick home with its dark windows and stained-glass hall door. Once inside, you will be equally taken with its light-filled, well-appointed interior, which retains many original features to include cornicing, centre pieces and 10ft high ceilings downstairs. Extensively refurbished and modernised in 2013 by its current owner, with continual upgrades to the cosmetic and decorative specifications - most recently to include a new kitchen and shower room the neutral palette of this stylish home serves as a wonderful backdrop to highlight the many beautiful features. The well laid out accommodation comprises welcoming entrance hallway with guest w.c., gracious interconnecting drawing and dining rooms (the dining is currently in use as a living room), fantastic light-filled open plan kitchen/breakfast/family room complete with Stovax stove and French doors to the sun-trap rear patio and garden with 4 bedrooms (3 good doubles, one with ensuite) and shower room upstairs on the first floor and return. A clever attic conversion (248 sqft approx.) completes the accommodation and provides for a variety of uses to include the much-needed home office. Description of this stunning home would not be complete without mention of the landscaped gardens, which really enhance the property given their sunny aspect, use and aesthetic appeal. Superbly located with local shopping a two-minute stroll away on Rathmines Road Upper to include The Grocer on the Green, Fresh and Wild, Tesco Express, Fothergills, Lawlors' Butchers and Feeney's fish shop both of which people travel to from far and wide. The walkways and floral displays of Palmerston Park are a few minutes away as is Brookfield Tennis Club and Dartry Health Club. Rathgar village and Rathmines town centre are equal distance away, whilst the LUAS at Cowper Road is a 7/8 minute walk away. 213 Rathmines Road Upper offers the complete package to the discerning buyer location, aspect, size and condition viewing is highly recommended.
