Description

Seafield House is a stunning mid-terrace Victorian period residence, boasting five bedrooms and a wealth of charming features that is positioned on Burdett Avenue one of the premier roads in Sandycove. This property offers a perfect blend of traditional character and modern living, with an array of excellent amenities nearby and breathtaking sea views. Renovated to exacting standards in 2009/2010, Seafield House exudes timeless elegance and impeccable craftsmanship, blending contemporary modern living with the stunning period features of the Victorian era. The property is presented in excellent decorative order, ensuring a turnkey experience for any discerning purchaser. As you first approach Seafield House, you are greeted by a double fronted, two storey over basement level period residence with impressive granite steps leading up the front door and valuable off street parking for two cars with a provision to create a third. The spacious reception hall boasts an abundance of natural light, thanks to an inspired two storey return of glass at the rear returns. Interconnecting rooms on either side of the hall, include a contemporary minimalist design kitchen and family room which is equipped with high-quality appliances and ample storage space with double folding French doors opening into the rear garden. On the other side of the hall are two further reception rooms, a formal dining room and drawing room both with generous proportions and exceptionally bright. The lower ground level hosts a double bedroom, cloakroom, bathroom, and a generous living room, perfect for relaxation or entertaining. From the living room a door opens to a utility room and in turn to a self-contained two storey unit with its own hall door to the front, a kitchen/ living area and a double bedroom complete with a shower room upstairs. Upstairs in the main house, there are two generous double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a magnificent main bedroom (which was originally two rooms) offering breathtaking panoramic views over Dun Laoghaire Harbour, Scotsman�s Bay, Howth and Sandycove Point from the tri-aspect multipaned sash windows. This room has to be really seen to appreciate the stunning views that it enjoys from all the windows. The property benefits from a well-maintained garden, providing the perfect setting for outdoor activities and al fresco dining. For added convenience, off-street parking is available, ensuring hassle-free parking in a notoriously problematic parking area. The generous natural stone patio and artificial grass area require minimal maintenance, allowing you to spend more time soaking in the coastal ambiance. A pedestrian gate provides convenient access to the rear lane, adding to the property�s practicality and charm. Seafield House enjoys a privileged location surrounded by exceptional facilities and amenities. Dalkey Town Centre, Sandycove/Glasthule, and Dun Laoghaire Town Centre are just moments away, offering an abundance of shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions. Explore the nearby Sandycove Harbour, the iconic Forty Foot Bathing Club, and the scenic cycle track linking Sandycove to Blackrock. With easy access to primary and secondary schools, bus routes, and the DART service, Seafield House ensures convenience and connectivity for all residents. Embrace an active lifestyle with access to a myriad of recreational and leisure facilities. From the renowned Sandycove Lawn Tennis Club to Cuala GAA & Dalkey United, there�s something for everyone. Enjoy leisurely strolls along the seafront or explore the picturesque east and west piers at Dun Laoghaire Harbour. The four yacht clubs and an extensive marina at Dun Laoghaire Harbour with its two Piers, make Seafield House a haven for the marine and sailing enthusiasts.
