Description

‘621 Howth Road, Blackbanks’ is a captivating detached home situated on an elevated South facing site with panoramic views of Dublin Bay. This art deco style home extends to approx. 3,000 sq ft at present and was of cutting edge design when it was originally created back in the mid 1930’s. Advances in modern home technology and vast improvements to insulation standards have given this style of 1930’s architecture a new lease of life. Now, homes of this era can be easily enhanced in terms of their aesthetic appeal and their energy efficiency. The future of '621 Howth Road' will be for its new owner to decide, as there is no denying the unique potential of this truly astonishing site, over-looking Dublin Bay. The site area comprises a square 0.3 acres with access off the Howth Road via a long private driveway. One of its most endearing features is that few know the property even exits, such is its unique location hidden well back and behind the more traditional family homes along this stretch of the favoured Howth Road. Naturally, the potential exists to enhance the existing home although due to the neat symmetrical shape of the grounds, there appears to be obvious potential to create one or more spectacular new home (s), subject to planning permission being obtained. Homes rarely become available along the southern side of Blackbanks, where viewing is imperative to fully appreciate the utterly mesmerising panoramic views of Dublin Bay. The vista from is quite simply breath-taking and equally so by night, as the city’s skyline lights up and Dublin port welcomes each ocean liner to its harbour. The accommodation briefly comprises at ground floor level, a reception hall, a dining room, a kitchen cum breakfast room, a family room, open plan to a sun lounge overlooking the rear garden and Dublin Bay and a study and store. Upstairs off the landing are four generously proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom is a marvellous size with its own walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, three more bedrooms and four bathrooms complete the accommodation inside and there is a detached self-contained garden room which houses a snooker room, study & store, ideal as a home office or children’s den. Breath-taking views are enjoyed from most rooms as the original design ensured the width of this home took best advantage of the elevated south facing views. The convenient location is within a short walk of the local village, a brief commute to the city and the endless local amenities are easily accessed on foot. A regular bus route passes by the end of the driveway and the local Dart station is within a short stroll. Opportunities such as this come along once in a lifetime which is why viewing is highly recommended!
