An absolute treasure trove and full of character, 3 Carlisle Terrace is a wonderful two bedroom terraced house extending to c. 81 sq.m. 872 sq.ft. and is located within a 5 minute stroll to Bray promenade and seafront and just 300m to Bray DART station. Beautifully presented and well maintained throughout, it is not surprising that the vendor is a well-respected artist and conservator with evidence of creative flair, artwork and wonderful use of colour apparent in every room.
Set on Duncairn Avenue, a quiet lane off Seymour Road, the original house dates to c. 1890 and demonstrates many original features of the Victorian period including 10-foot-high ceilings, cast iron fireplaces and decorative ceiling plasterwork. The property has been substantially upgraded to include triple glazing, attic insulation, updated oil fired central heating system, solid oak timber flooring along with the use of tasteful décor throughout.
Briefly the accommodation comprises of a welcoming entrance hallway with storage units and a handy guest WC with its very own stamp collection on the walls. A semi glazed door leads from the hall to the rear courtyard garden. To the left is the comfortable living room which is dual aspect. Replaced by new triple glazed windows, the original front window frames were preserved and custom stained-glass windows designed by Enda Hannon have been set within the frames making for a lovely feature. An open fireplace and built in bookshelves help to make for a warm and restful environment. This room leads into the kitchen with its solid oak countertops and range of bespoke cabinetry. Two of the cabinet doors feature the vendor's own exquisite botanical casting reliefs in graphite and resin. The splash backs are Fired Earth marble, and the kitchen offers a range of integrated appliances along with a cast iron fireplace.
Rising to the first floor, there are two fine bedrooms, with views of the sea. The main bedroom is decorated with botanical reliefs wallpaper. The family bathroom includes a bath and electric shower unit and features a wildflower bathroom cabinet and mural dipicting Roy Lichtenstein's Water Lilles. The hot press is located in the bathroom.
Outside there is a magical rear courtyard garden laid with gravel and hosting a lovely variety of shrubs and climbing plants including a mature jasmine. There is on-street parking to the front of the property.
The location of the property really is second to none. Set on a tranquil avenue and yet is within a stone's throw to the Bray town centre, the seafront, the DART, and a host of amenities and facilities including cafés, restaurants, shops and local businesses. There is a terrific choice of sporting facilities and clubs nearby along with excellent schools and public transport links.
Early viewing of this wonderful property is highly recommended.
