Description

JB Kelly presents this distinctive red brick period residence, dating from circa 1896, set along a mature and well-established terrace in the heart of Howth Village. This is a property of notable character, retaining a wide range of original features associated with the late Victorian and early Edwardian era. Behind its attractive red brick façade with feature bay windows, the interior is defined by generous proportions and high ceilings throughout. Original plasterwork, ceiling detailing and joinery have been preserved, while a sweeping staircase rises from the entrance hallway to the upper level, forming a central feature of the home. The accommodation extends over three floors, typical of period homes of this type, with external steps down to the lower level which also provides access to a private garden at the rear. At entrance level, an imposing entrance hall leads to two spacious reception rooms to the front and rear, both well-proportioned and enhanced by high ceilings and decorative coving, typical of that era. A generous sash window on the return to the upper floor floods the spacious landing with natural light. On the upper floor, there are three bedrooms, one of which has views towards Ireland’s Eye. The principal bedroom is positioned to the front of the property and has a large bay window and attractive fireplace. The return level between the ground and lower ground floor features a bathroom and separate WC, reflecting the original layout of the house. The lower ground floor offers additional accommodation including a large traditional kitchen, a fourth bedroom, a further reception room and another bathroom. The kitchen is located to the front and has separate access to the front via an external entrance with gated pedestrian access, providing further flexibility. To the rear, the property enjoys a tranquil west-facing garden laid mainly in lawn, offering a pleasant outdoor space with a good degree of privacy. The location is an integral part of the appeal. This wonderful property is in the heart of Howth Village and is walking distance to a wide selection of shops, cafés and well-known restaurants, together with the harbour and marina. Public transport is readily available with nearby DART and bus services, while the surrounding area offers access to coastal and hill walks, making this one of Dublin’s most established and desirable seaside locations. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period home in a prime coastal setting, with clear potential to modernise and tailor to contemporary living.
