Description
Mullery O’Gara are delighted to present ‘Fairfield’, 61 Kenilworth Park - a most handsome red brick Edwardian residence boasting a striking façade, south-westerly aspect, and an enduring sense of warmth and character throughout. Extending over three levels, the property has been well maintained and offers a generous and versatile family accommodation. Period details abound, including high ceilings, ornate plasterwork, picture rails, and elegant joinery. Set behind an attractive red brick archway with off-street parking, the entrance sets the tone for the charm within. A bright and welcoming hallway leads to two gracious interconnecting reception rooms divided by double doors. The front reception enjoys a beautiful box bay window that floods the space with natural light, while the rear reception opens into a spacious breakfast room and a fully fitted kitchen. French doors open to a mature south-west facing garden extending to approximately 40ft. The upper floors are arranged with bedrooms over the first and second levels. The master bedroom features a striking bay window, original fireplace, and ensuite bathroom, while a generous family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms on the first floor. ‘Fairfield’ also enjoys a rich musical heritage. Current owners Pat and Ann Conway purchased the home from the O’Donnell family - whose son, Al O’Donnell, was a noted figure in the 1960s Irish folk revival and famously played banjo alongside Luke Kelly on the recording of Raglan Road. The Dubliners are said to have rehearsed here many times, filling the house with song and history. Pat Conway himself became well known in Irish music as a publisher and producer, creating the renowned Soodlum Ballad Books and the first Irish tin whistle. The location is second to none — ideally positioned on a quiet and highly sought-after road between Harold’s Cross, Rathgar, and Terenure, with an excellent selection of schools, cafés, restaurants, and local shops within easy reach. Superb public transport and road links provide swift access to the city centre and beyond.
