Description
A beautifully presented 1930's Crampton built home that retains many of the original features of the era ideally situated on highly regarded and sought after road only minutes from the seafront, DART, Booterstown and Blackrock Village. The property further benefits from full planning permission for a double storey extension to the side, single story to the rear and a dormer attic conversion as well as an immensely private rear garden with a sunny aspect measuring c.23m (75ft) in length.
80 St Helens Road is approached by a pillared gated entrance to a gravelled driveway with cobble border providing off street parking for twp cars and access to the garage. The remainder of the front garden is laid out in lawn bordered by mature hedging.
On entering the home, the elegant reception hall immediately sets the tone with high ceilings, polished hardwood floor and carved timber staircase. To the left are two beautiful interconnecting reception rooms, a living room with bay window overlooks the front and a dining room overlooks and opens into the rear garden, both rooms retain their original features with timber fireplaces, ceiling coving and picture rails. A kitchen breakfast room to the rear is flooded in natural light with triple aspect windows and rooflight, this in turn leads to a rear lobby with access to the garden and garage, off this is a utility room and storeroom. At first floor level of a wide landing are four well-proportioned bedrooms with the main bedroom availing of a bay window overlooking the front. A family bathroom completes the internal accommodation.
The stunning and immensely private garden is a real feature of this home measuring approx. 23m (57 ft) in length it is laid out mainly in lawn with a patio area directly outside the dining room and a further patio with timber cladding to the rear of the garden.
