Silverwood Road is a superb location in the heart of Rathfarnham, offering an ideal setting for family living. This mature and well-established residential road is within easy reach of Rathfarnham Shopping Centre and Village, with their excellent selection of shops, cafés and everyday amenities, while Bushy Park and St Enda’s Park are also close by. There is a wealth of excellent schools, sporting facilities and recreational amenities in the surrounding area, with Nutgrove Shopping Centre and Dundrum Town Centre also within easy reach. The location is further enhanced by excellent transport links to Dublin City Centre and surrounding areas.

No. 26 Silverwood Road is an attractive four-bedroom semi-detached family home which offers generously proportioned and versatile accommodation throughout. The property combines many of the traditional features synonymous with homes of this era, including ceiling coving, ceiling roses, stained-glass detailing and a feature marble fireplace, with practical additions including a converted garage, conservatory and multiple shower/bathroom facilities.

Without doubt, one of the real gems of this home is the wonderful rear garden. Extending to approximately 80ft in length and enjoying a coveted south-facing aspect, the garden is exceptionally private and is not directly overlooked. Beautifully manicured and lovingly planted, it is a delight throughout the seasons, with a profusion of mature shrubs, flowering plants and colourful borders, complemented by mature trees which provide excellent natural screening. The result is a wonderfully tranquil, sylvan outlook rarely found in such a convenient suburban setting. A generous lawn provides excellent space for children and outdoor activities, while a patio area immediately adjoining the house creates the perfect spot for outdoor dining and entertaining.

To the front, the property has an attractive half-red-brick, half-pebble-dash frontage, with a walled garden laid mainly in lawn and bordered by well-stocked flower beds. A generous driveway provides off-street parking, while the former garage has been converted to provide an additional versatile space with its own independent access and shower room.

Internally, the accommodation is both well-proportioned and highly versatile. The wide entrance hall leads to the principal reception rooms, with the dining room to the front opening through double pocket doors into a generous living room, complete with feature marble fireplace and open fire. The living room in turn leads to a bright conservatory which enjoys beautiful views over the rear garden. A well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room completes the main living accommodation on the ground floor, while upstairs there are four bedrooms, a family bathroom and an additional shower room serving the fourth bedroom.

The combination of its excellent location, generous and versatile accommodation, exceptional 80-foot south-facing rear garden and converted garage makes this a particularly appealing family home in one of Rathfarnham’s most established residential settings.
