Description
Sherry FitzGerald are privileged to welcome you to this elegant double-fronted villa style residence dating from 1836. Superbly located on one of South Dublin’s most sought after roads and within walking distance of Blackrock village. The property which stands on 0.3acres of wonderfully sunny and secluded south west facing gardens offers the discerning purchaser approximately 350sq.m. / 3,767sq.ft. approx of elegant and generously proportioned accommodation which is richly appointed throughout and is full of character and charm.
Pipers Lodge has been tastefully extended to the side and rear and has been well maintained over the years by the current owners. Externally the property is instantly impressive and appealing; granite steps from the beautiful gravel driveway lead to the elegant reception hall and two large reception rooms perfect for entertaining on a grand scale. Both reception rooms boast original marble fireplaces, detailed cornicing and ceiling roses. Steps lead down to the lower level where you have a well fitted kitchen with gas fired AGA, this in turn leads out into a wonderful light filled Dining room and Sun room taking full advantage of the views over the glorious gardens. Continuing around you have a family/ TV room with fireplace. A corridor leads to a Library and an office / study with door out to the side garden area.
To the front of the house at lower level there is a double bedroom, a large playroom/ bedroom, a bathroom, utility room and a wine cellar under the front steps.
Upstairs
There are three bedrooms overlooking the rear garden, the main is a very fine room with extensive built in wardrobes, dual aspect and has a large ensuite bathroom off. There is an additional family shower room at this level.
Waltham Terrace lies just off Mount Merrion Avenue, just moments from Blackrock village. The convenience of this location cannot be overstated. There is an abundance of highly-regarded restaurants and bars within walking distance, as well as cafes, shops, and shopping centres. Some of Dublin’s finest schools are also within walking distance; including Blackrock College, St. Andrew’s College, Willow Park and Sion Hill, while UCD is also close by. There is a wealth of leisure facilities in the area also, with golf, sailing, tennis and rugby clubs all within close proximity.
All in all, this is a home steeped in history and exuding quality, located at one of the most sought after addresses in South Dublin – early viewing comes highly advised.
