Description

Located in lovely tree-lined Elton Park, just a short stroll from Sandycove promenade, from the moment one steps over the original granite doorstep onto the original tiled porch floor, the eminent style of Kyletawn is set. This is a handsome five bed Edwardian semi detached family home set within delightful mature landscaped gardens with off-street parking, with a valuable integral garage ideally positioned for conversion (STPP). Complemented by a wonderful sunny, private aspect to the rear, this charming home with its generous proportions and welcoming feel offers an exceptional opportunity to live on this convenient, sought after road and is sure to offer wide appeal. The practical light filled, elegant accommodation has been lovingly cared for and exudes utmost character and comfort, so while the property offers further potential, it is indeed ready for immediate occupation. The integral garage, wide side entrance, large attic and rear garden could, subject to PP, provide huge opportunity to enlarge and extend the already generous well proportioned space. Comprising arched red brick porch leading to welcoming reception hall with guest cloakroom and under-stairs storage, the two substantial inter-connecting reception rooms (both with fireplaces), benefit from the original pocket doors. The lounge to the front, from its attractive bay window, enjoys a terrific vista to the front garden. To the rear the dining room leads through the lovely original steel framed double doors to the relaxing Victorian style conservatory, with its own special view and connection to the outdoors. Recently fitted by Blackrock Kitchens, the homely bright kitchen/ breakfast room, with its stylish range of painted units and Silestone countertops, also enjoys access to the wonderful mature rear garden. On the first floor the sun drenched landing, with its original feature window and galleried view to the hall, leads to the master bedroom with extensive fitted wardrobes and a shower room ensuite. Four further generous bedrooms, two with views over the rear garden and beyond to the tennis club, and a family bathroom with separate WC complete the internal accommodation. The extensive mature gardens, with their herbaceous borders, fine planting and high degree of privacy evident in the back garden are all particularly pleasing features. To the front, the lawn is bordered by a wonderful selection of mature trees and colourful shrubs. Off-street parking for multiple cars is provided in the cobblelock driveway. Of course the garage with its double doors provides further parking or storage or is perfect for conversion ( STPP) A practical side entrance (c 2.85m wide) leads to the rear garden where a bounty of pear and apple trees, a selection of fruit bushes and an abundance of shrubs create an unexpected colourful and constantly changing vista, depending on the time of the year. With such a changing seasonal based back-drop, both patios and the garden enjoy an amazingly quiet and private oasis of calm. Divided by a selection of fruit bushes, the rear garden is almost reminiscent of a secret garden. To the side, an external utility/laundry room, a storage shed and Barna garden shed provide ample storage. Occupying an unrivalled location, with every service and facility on the doorstep, shopping is well catered for with a varied selection of specialist and gourmet shops, boutiques, cafes, bars and restaurants in Sandycove, Glasthule and Dalkey. Along the coast, these and other lovely local villages provide excellent amenities - each village seeming to come with its own unique atmosphere. Leisure opportunities abound with Sandycove Beach nearby and Sandycove Tennis and Squash Club adjacent. Marine pursuits are well catered for with the extensive marina at Dun Laoghaire Harbour and the varied sailing and yachting facilities offered by its four sailing clubs. Wind surfing in Monkstown, swimming at the Forty Foot, White Rock and numerous other locations, together with the most glorious seaside walks along the coast from Sandycove, through Dalkey and onwards to Killineys hills and dales make this a location of note. Coliemore Harbour, Bullock Harbour, Dalkey Island, the Peoples Park and many other local attractions combine to make Sandycove a highly regarded and prime residential suburb. . Many hospitals including St Michael’s, St Vincent’s, the NRH and Blackrock Clinic are within easy distance. So too are some of south Dublin’s best schools, including Castlepark, Loretto Abbey Dalkey, Holy Child, Rathdown, Harold National School, Monkstown CBC and the Michael Smurfit Business School. With unparalleled convenience, the area is well served by public transport with numerous bus routes available locally. The DART service operates to and from Sandycove, Glasthule and Dalkey.
