No. 29 Leinster Square is an elegant double fronted 1929 Art Deco residence enjoying a superb south-facing position in the heart of Rathmines. This impressive five-bedroom family home is rich in character and history, with beautiful original period features throughout and truly magnificent front and rear gardens that have been lovingly maintained and landscaped by the current owners. Dating from a bygone era, the property seamlessly combines timeless charm with spacious and practical family accommodation in one of Dublin's most sought-after residential locations.

Beyond the front gate, a wonderfully mature garden filled with vibrant flowers, shrubs and trees creates an immediate sense of tranquillity, providing a private oasis in the heart of Rathmines. The accommodation extends over two floors and comprises a welcoming entrance hall which gives access to the principal reception rooms. The elegant drawing room, complete with picture rails and decorative coving, interconnects with the formal dining room creating an ideal space for both family living and entertaining. To the rear, a tiled kitchen and spacious breakfast room enjoy pleasant views over the garden, while a playroom, shower room and guest bedroom further enhance the versatility of the accommodation at ground floor level. Rising upstairs, there are four well-proportioned bedrooms comprising three doubles and one single bedroom, together with a shower room and a large family bathroom.

The accommodation perfectly complements the rich heritage of the home, with original features including chrome plated window handles and door handles with fingerplates, picture rails, dado rails, ornate coving, timber flooring, and beautiful fireplaces with traditional wooden surrounds and a trio of quite unique stained-glass windows. The care and attention invested in the property by the current owners is evident throughout, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that has been enjoyed for over three decades. The exceptional gardens to both the front and rear are a particular feature, bursting with an extraordinary collection of flowers, plants and mature trees that provide colour and interest throughout the seasons.

The location is second to none, situated in the heart of Rathmines with an unrivalled range of amenities on the doorstep. Rathmines Village offers an excellent selection of cafés, restaurants, shops, and leisure facilities. While nearby Ranelagh, Rathgar and Harold's Cross provide further choice.

Rathmines is a vibrant suburb on the southside of Dublin, about 3 kilometres south of the city centre. It effectively begins at the south side of the Grand Canal and stretches along the Rathmines Road as far as Rathgar to the south, Ranelagh to the east and Harold's Cross to the west. Rathmines has thriving commercial and civil activity and is well-known across Ireland as part of a traditionally known "flatland" - providing rented accommodation to newly arrived junior civil servants and third level students coming from outside the city since the 1930s.
