Description

Welcome to 5 Ard Na Greine, an exceptional three-storey terraced residence situated in historic St. Luke's. The terrace is elevated above and set back from the road, which minimizes traffic noise. It also fosters a sense of community among those living there, and provides a safe play area for children. This Edwardian home has high ceilings and large windows, timber, and tiled flooring (some original), and other classic period features. It has great character and a pleasing layout. The front door opens to an encaustic-tiled entrance hall that is well lit during the day by a traditional fanlight. To the left is the living room, with a large bay window overlooking the front garden. That room opens onto the rear-facing dining room, which looks out onto a private courtyard and a long, sloping garden. Beside it is a well-designed galley kitchen with a large window to the side, including a windowed door to the courtyard. Moving upstairs, the first-floor return has a shower room and hot press, and a window overlooking the courtyard. The first floor has a large Master bedroom (or second reception room) facing front, and another good-sized bedroom to the rear. The second floor has two double bedrooms (one with built-in bookshelves), and a large bathroom. The roof was recently replaced, and there are excellent controls for zoned heating and hot water. A pull-down ladder in the second-floor hallway provides access to the attic. Two sheds adjoin the rear courtyard. This home is a stone's throw from St. Luke's Cross, a vibrant mini village offering essential and recreational amenities plus a community garden. In the centre are convenient shops, bars, a wine tavern, and a coffee cafe, while nearby are excellent primary and secondary schools. St. Luke's Cross is well serviced by public transport and is only a 10-minute walk from the city centre and Kent Station. No. 5 combines period style and city living, a rare find in today's market. Viewings are highly recommended.
