Description
The development of Rathgar as a village followed the establishment of the Rathmines and Rathgar Township in the mid-1800s. At around this time Christ Church, still prominent at the junction of Highfield and Rathgar Road, was constructed, giving a focus to the growing hamlet. Rathgar quickly became a very desirable location for the professional classes in Dublin who were seeking to leave the crowded city for a more agreeable situation. Garville Avenue is, to this day, one of the most desirable addresses in Dublin 6. Many of the original Victorian homes, including No. 45, have been well preserved and come with original period features and a genuine sense of history, making them enduringly attractive to discriminating purchasers. EXPLORE INSIDE An elegant granite stairway leads to a spacious hall with high ceilings, original coving, architraves and doors. To the right you find the elegant and spacious dining and drawing rooms, again featuring many of the original features that date back to the 1800s. On the upstairs return there is a generous, bright, family bathroom, with bath and shower. Up another flight there are three bedrooms, two large doubles and a good-sized single. The downstairs return features the first of two well fitted kitchens, with a second larger kitchen found at the garden level, along with a large reception room, shower room and WC. This home offers infinite flexibility to its new owners, with the possibility of using the garden level for a play space, for day -to-day family living, or as a private, but still inclusive, accommodation option for a family member. EXPLORE OUTSIDE There is a large sunny patio to the rear, along with a well landscaped garden and a garage. The rear of the property has access from a lane that runs between Garville and Coulson Avenue, offering the possibility of off-street parking in the garage if needed, and convenient for bicycle access or deliveries. Garville Avenue is within easy walking distance of not just Rathgar, but also Terenure, Rathmines and Harold’s Cross. There are a number of excellent secondary schools in the area, as well as a large selection of shops, restaurants, cafés, playgrounds and sports clubs. Multiple bus routes pass nearby, reaching as far as the Airport, UCD and various points in the City Centre. THE BOTTOM LINE It is 150 years since the first families settled on Garville Avenue; a lot has changed since then, but the homes that launched those long ago families are still delivering a fantastic family home experience and No. 45 offers a superb opportunity for a new family to create the next chapter in their story.
