Description
No.44 represents an extremely rare opportunity in South County Dublin to acquire a beautifully presented A3 BER rated detached red-brick Edwardian home. Recently renovated to the highest specifications whilst retaining all of its original period features, this 270sq.ft(approx.) family home boasts stunning decor throughout with an idyllic south-easterly facing, private rear garden. Offering a considered balance of practicality and desirability, finished with the owners' finely honed eye for interiors, a great sense of style and character is immediately evident and flows throughout. The entrance lobby, with original cream and red-tiled floor, leads through to the entrance hall with striking dark engineered wood floors, which are present throughout the majority of the ground floor accommodation. To the front of the property there is a library with an original feature fireplace, extensive bespoke shelving, and a secret bookcase door which leads through to a hidden home office/study; an extension to the original house. The living room is beautifully appointed with 'Rectory Red' painted walls creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, further complimented by the feature cast-iron fireplace with tiled inset. This room also provides further access to the office. To the rear of the house, the generously appointed kitchen/living/dining area is open plan yet in-keeping with the original style of the property and offers four access points to the wonderfully private, south-easterly facing garden. Surrounding the large dining area, clever wood-paneled walls conceal a bar cabinet and wine fridge. The deep navy, in-frame kitchen with large island unit, corner larder, and quartz countertops, incorporates top of the range appliances including a Bora induction hob and Quooker tap. The living area is dual aspect and enjoys a lovely outlook over both the garden and patio areas. A well-equipped utility room and a guest w.c. complete the accommodation at this level. Upstairs, there are four generously sized double bedrooms and a luxuriously appointed family bathroom. The principal suite features wall to wall wardrobes concealed by paneling, a walk-in wardrobe, and an en-suite. Enjoying views of the garden, it overlooks a sedum roof. Two of the further bedrooms feature original fireplaces and share an en-suite. At the top of the house there is a spacious attic conversion. To the rear of the property there is a wonderful, sunny 85ft and professionally landscaped garden a real haven of seclusion and an oasis of calm. Bordered by original granite walls, it is laid mainly in lawn and its borders are bursting with a variety of colourful flowers, plants, and mature trees including rare specimens such as a podocarpus and ginkgo. There are two oatmeal granite patios, one larger for al-fresco dining and another at the foot of the garden. To the front of the house there is a graveled off-street parking area for two cars behind electric gates plus a secured bike shed. The location needs little introduction. A wealth of amenities, both social and essential, lie within a short walk. There is ease of access to the beaches at Seapoint and Sandycove, for sea swimmers, and to walks along the seafront and both the East and West piers. Monkstown Crescent offers an excellent choice of specialty food shops, as well as fashionable clothes and interiors shops, bars and restaurants, including Avoca, Café du Journal and Cinnamon. Dun Laoghaire, meanwhile, has supermarkets, banks, and a multi-screen cinema, plus four sailing clubs. There are two tennis clubs within a few minutes' walk of the property. The locality is afforded great ease of access to the city centre, with excellent bus routes in the vicinity along with the DART, not to forget the Aircoach direct to Dublin Airport.
