Description
27 Cambridge Terrace is a most attractive red bricked period property enjoying an enviable position within this handsome terrace of homes set back from York Road. Combining timeless architectural appeal with exceptional versatility, this substantial residence is currently arranged as four self-contained apartments, offering an excellent investment opportunity, while also presenting obvious potential to be reconfigured into an impressive family home or a family residence with an income-generating apartment, subject to the necessary consents.
Behind the handsome red brick façade lies a property of immense character and charm, with well-proportioned accommodation extending over multiple levels. The flexibility of the existing layout allows purchasers to tailor the property to their own requirements, whether as a long-term investment, a multi-generational home, or a substantial family residence in one of South Dublin's most desirable locations.
A flight of granite steps leads to the front entrance, opening into a welcoming entrance hall rich in period detail, immediately setting the tone for the elegant accommodation that lies beyond.
At entrance level, the current one-bedroom apartment offers exceptional flexibility and could easily be reconfigured to create two gracious reception rooms, both centred around stunning period fireplaces. Off the living area, in the return of the house, is a kitchen with direct access to the rear garden, together with a shower room. On the first-floor return is a room ideally suited for use as a family bathroom. The first-floor apartment comprises a spacious bedroom with a generous ensuite, lending itself perfectly to a principal bedroom suite, while the adjoining living/kitchen area could readily be repurposed as an additional bedroom if required. The top floor is currently arranged as a one-bedroom apartment and similarly, could be easily reconfigured to provide further bedroom accommodation. At garden level, there is a well-appointed two-bedroom apartment comprising a living/kitchen area, a large double bedroom, a generous single bedroom, and a shower room. This apartment enjoys direct access to a private courtyard, from which steps lead up to the rear garden.
A particular feature of No 27 is the large West facing rear garden, benefiting from access onto Knapton Lane. The garden offers exciting potential for development, subject to planning permission. This unique feature adds a further dimension to the property's already considerable appeal.
The convenience of the location is second to none. Monkstown Village is just a short stroll away and offers an excellent selection of chic boutiques, artisan cafés, renowned restaurants, speciality shops and everyday amenities, creating a vibrant village atmosphere that has made the area one of Dublin's most desirable addresses. Dun Laoghaire town centre is equally accessible, providing an even more extensive range of shopping and leisure facilities, together with excellent transport links including the DART.
The area's coastal setting further enhances its appeal, with the seafront, marine walks and several prestigious yacht clubs all within easy reach. Families will appreciate the superb choice of highly regarded primary and secondary schools nearby, while sporting and recreational amenities are abundant, including rugby, tennis, golf, sailing and a wide range of waterfront activities.
Combining a prime coastal location, exceptional flexibility, development potential and a charming period setting, 27 Cambridge Terrace offers exceptional flexibility of use, whether retained in its current layout or restored to a magnificent single-family home Accommodation
