Description
Sherry FitzGerald present’s to the market a most exquisite, semi-detached family home which occupies a haven of idyllic privacy and seclusion within the wonderful surroundings of Sandymount & Ballsbridge.
No. 8 extends to 2,874 sq ft (267 sq mt) approx. of perfectly appointed accommodation which is bound to appeal to a wide audience. It is complemented by a beautifully landscaped front and rear garden, which is completely secluded. An excellent and rare opportunity to acquire a truly magnificent family home of distinction.
As you walk through the hall door of this stunning home, the attention to detail and the fully restored period features are evident. It boasts high-quality workmanship with beautiful fittings, high ceilings, large light-filled rooms, a fully fitted kitchen and a landscaped front and rear. The house is in turnkey condition.
The accommodation is second to none and comprises on the ground floor of an entrance hall, guest w.c. A large elegant drawing room featuring an original fireplace, built-in custom bookcases on either side and one of the house's many fully restored sash period windows (paired with wooden shutters). Ideal for entertaining, this room also has original double doors connecting it to the large dining room, complete with a fireplace, restored period ceiling moulding and matching custom-made bookcases.
A light-filled family kitchen/utility/breakfast room is off the dining room. The kitchen provides access to a sunroom and to an enclosed rear garden through sliding doors. Off the kitchen area is an additional large family room /study with a fireplace and coloured glass window. This floor also boasts exterior side access to both the back garden and a separate corridor into the kitchen (allowing for ease of accessibility when gardening or simply for when getting the groceries delivered straight to the fridge).
On the first floor are three double bedrooms (main en-suite), a single bedroom /office, a sizeable family bathroom, and a linen closet. Custom built-in under-stair units also provide additional storage on this level.
On the second floor, there is a double attic room with an en-suite, walk-in wardrobe and a separate storeroom (currently laid out as a TV den/ home office recording space). Velux windows provide sunlight and are fitted with remote control black-out blinds.
The garden/outdoor areas are also a real feature of this home, with ample off-street parking for up to four cars to the front behind remote-controlled electric gates. The landscaped rear garden has side access and measures approx. (10.2m x 6.7m) it is low maintenance with raised flower beds, mature shrubbery and ample space for outdoor BBQ and relaxing. The front garden is mainly laid in gravel with a large patio area measuring approx. (15m x 7.2m) which catches the sun in the late morning and matured well-maintained trees and hedging surround the space for privacy. It also has two sizeable purpose-built storage sheds for tidying away all the items that come with family life. The road itself is wide, quiet, with on-street parking available on both sides.
The house is perfectly located between the villages of Sandymount and Ballsbridge and close to the city centre. All amenities are on the doorstep. Close to the Aviva stadium, the RDS, the DART, the Strand, Herbert Park and all the shops and restaurants of Bath Avenue, Ballsbridge, Grand Canal Dock and Sandymount. The house is directly across from the boutique family-run Sandymount hotel. Within easy reach of the Airport tunnel and the M50. The property is close to a number of popular schools in the locale from primary options such as Educate Together, St Mathews, St Conleth’s, Teresian’s School etc. To secondary schools like St. Michael’s College, Muckross Park, Gonzaga, St. Andrew’s, Loretto on the green, Sandymount Park ETSS, and a private feeder bus from the nearby Dart station goes to Sandford Park School. While a short dart ride away lies Blackrock College. The house is also ideally situated to access all third-level institutions within Dublin and is within walking distance of Dublin’s Silicon Docks and City centre firms.
