Description
McGuirk Beggan Property are delighted to present No. 26 Long Lane, a truly exceptional end-terrace late Victorian red-brick residence, reimagined and extended by award-winning architect John Duffy to create a striking, contemporary home of remarkable quality and design. While retaining its charming period façade, this stunning property has effectively been rebuilt from the ground up with the original front exterior wall the only remaining original feature, and everything else meticulously renewed including a new roof, wiring, plumbing and complete internal reconfiguration. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a period property in this area finished to such an exacting standard and presented in truly 100% turn-key condition.
Upon entering, the property immediately impresses with uninterrupted sightlines from the front hall through to the main living accommodation, enhancing the sense of space and light throughout. The interior is beautifully finished, featuring striking herringbone solid wood flooring with underfloor heating, creating both warmth and elegance underfoot. The accommodation flows effortlessly into a bright and spacious open-plan living area, where a modern fitted kitchen combines sleek functionality with refined style. A contemporary wood-burning stove within the living space provides a cosy focal point, complementing the clean architectural lines and stylish finishes throughout.
The rear extension is flooded with natural light thanks to ample roof windows and expansive glazing, while bi-fold doors open out to the rear garden, perfectly blending indoor and outdoor living. A beautifully designed central courtyard is a true focal point of the home, featuring a remarkable 160-year-old olive tree, carefully imported from Italy, adding a unique sense of character and Mediterranean charm.
The property comprises two well-proportioned double bedrooms, the main bedroom featuring walk-in wardrobe space, along with a beautifully appointed modern bathroom. Additional benefits include a high-efficiency combi boiler and thoughtfully designed storage solutions throughout.
The location is simply superb. Situated in the vibrant and highly sought-after area of Portobello, residents can enjoy a unique village atmosphere right on the doorstep of the city centre. The area is renowned for its cafés, restaurants, and artisan food spots, while the nearby Grand Canal offers scenic walks and cycle routes. Camden Street and Rathmines are both within easy walking distance, providing an abundance of amenities, shops, and entertainment options. The property is also well serviced by public transport, ensuring easy access to all parts of the city.
No. 26 represents a rare opportunity to acquire a turnkey, architect-designed home of exceptional quality in one of Dublin`s most desirable and dynamic locations.
Early viewing is highly recommended.
