Description
An exceptionally stylish and beautifully restored original coach house dating from circa 1822, Purbeck Mews is a rare fusion of period character and contemporary architectural design. Originally the coach house to Purbeck Lodge, this remarkable early 19th century property has been comprehensively renovated, remodelled and extended by the current owners to create a light-filled home of immense charm and sophistication extending to approximately 140.5 sq.m. / 1,512 sq.ft. Throughout, the property retains a wonderful sense of heritage with exposed granite walls, original porthole windows and elegant curved detailing, all seamlessly balanced with high quality modern finishes, bespoke joinery and excellent energy-efficient upgrades. There is a heat pump and underfloor heating downstairs. Behind wrought iron gates there is generous off-street parking, EV charging facilities and beautifully landscaped wraparound grounds with two seating areas enjoying a sunny south-facing orientation to the rear.
The accommodation is exceptionally well designed with superb natural light throughout. A dramatic entrance hallway with extensive glazing and gallery-style landing sets the tone for the interior. The magnificent dual aspect living room features a striking curved wall and opens through patio doors to the south-facing terrace and garden. The dining room is elegantly appointed with bespoke cabinetry, Crittall style glazing and oak pocket doors, while the superb kitchen/breakfast room, designed and fitted by Kerwood Design, is beautifully finished with Silestone worktops, Siemens and Neff appliances, Quooker tap, an Insinkerator, a Cabel integrated single zone wine cooler and exposed granite detailing. The sink is Villeroy and Boch. A separate utility room and guest w.c. complete the ground floor accommodation.
Upstairs, a stunning light-filled landing/home office space leads to two luxurious double bedroom suites, both with extensive fitted wardrobes and beautifully appointed ensuite shower rooms featuring premium sanitary ware and tiling from Bathhouse, Monkstown. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive with exposed granite walls, original porthole window and feature arched stone window.
Perfectly positioned on Monkstown Road, Purbeck Mews enjoys one of South County Dublin's most sought-after residential locations just minutes from the heart of Monkstown Village with its renowned cafés, restaurants, boutiques and excellent amenities. The property is within easy reach of Seapoint and Dun Laoghaire, while excellent transport links including the DART and numerous bus routes provide swift access to the city centre and beyond. The area is home to excellent recreational and coastal amenities, making this a superbly convenient and highly desirable location. Accommodation
