Description
South County Dublin boasts some of the most stunning period residences and one such gem can be found on one of its premium roads, Marlborough Road in Glenageary. The incredibly handsome, picture perfect facade of this imposing period home has the ability to draw you in with its aesthetic appeal and its external beauty harmoniously aligns with its elegantly appointed and perfectly presented interior. Generous proportions, exquisite original detail, an enviable layout and a large private south-facing garden make this property truly exceptional. Sensitively refurbished and extended under renowned architect Paul Brazil, this is a shining testament to the timeless architectural grandeur of the past, seamlessly blended with a meticulously crafted extension that caters for the demands of modern day living.
The residence's overly generous proportions provide ample space for comfortable living. The large entrance hall with guest w.c. gives access through to two exquisite bay windowed formal reception rooms with tall ceilings complimented by intricate coving and large feature fireplaces, coming together to create comfortable grandeur. To the rear of this level, the excellent layout maximises both functionality and comfort with a family room, snug and study all connecting to the strategically placed kitchen/ dining room which also connects to both the formal dining room and the garden, making it an ideal home for entertaining guests. There is a shower room, boot room, utility room and plant room off the kitchen along with a side door through to a pedestrian side passage. Upstairs the bedrooms are all unquestionably double rooms, three of which are en-suite and the principle bedroom also has a walk in wardrobe.
The large private south-facing garden to the rear of the residence is a true oasis. Whether it is hosting a summer barbecue, enjoying outdoor activities or simply enjoying a quiet afternoon in the sun, this garden is the perfect retreat. The south-facing aspect ensures it receives sunlight throughout the day, making it an ideal spot for gardening enthusiasts or those who simply enjoy basking in the warmth of the sun. The privacy of the garden allows for a peaceful and serene environment, creating a perfect balance between indoor and outdoor living. To the front of the house there is ample secure off street parking with pedestrian side access. It is bordered with a profusion of plants and shrubs, along with garage access and pedestrian side access.
A tranquil escape just 12 kilometers south of Dublin City Centre, the location enjoys the best of both worlds, with peaceful surrounds and swift access on foot to the bustling coastal village of Glasthule, boasting a selection of award winning restaurants, luxury day spas, specialist delicatessens and popular boutiques. The seafront provides scenic coastal walks and easy access to a wide variety of marine leisure facilities including four yacht clubs. Glenageary Tennis Club is just around the corner on Silchester Road, and there are also numerous other popular sports clubs nearby. Glenageary Dart Station is a few short steps away allowing for a swift commute to the city centre and there are many notable schools close by including Rathdown, Holy Child Killiney and Loretto Dalkey and the dart line allows for easy access to St Michael's College, St Andrews and Blackrock College.
