Description
Quillsen is delighted to present to the market this stunning, renovated period home built circa 1896, combining elegant original character with a superb contemporary extension. Behind the handsome façade lies a beautifully proportioned residence that has been thoughtfully upgraded to create a stylish and highly functional family home, rich in period detail and modern comfort.
Upon entering, a welcoming hallway immediately sets the tone, featuring wainscoting wall panelling, decorative plasterwork, feature archway and ceiling roses. From here, the accommodation flows into a series of elegant reception rooms. To the front, a gracious reception room enjoys a deep bay window and runs seamlessly into the adjoining dining room, creating an excellent sense of flow and connectivity, before continuing through to the rear of the property. Both rooms retain superb original features including feature fireplaces with gas fire insets, ornate coving, ceiling roses, picture rails and original stained and varnished floorboards.
To the rear, the heart of the home is a superb architecturally extended open-plan kitchen/breakfast room. This impressive space features a painted fitted kitchen with central island, marbled worktops, double larder cupboard and a full suite of quality integrated appliances including a Nexus Rangemaster, Fisher & Paykel double-drawer dishwasher, Bosch fridge freezer, Neff microwave and double-bin refuse system. Finished with elegant pendant lighting, Belfast sink and stylish stone tiled flooring, the space flows seamlessly into a generous dining area and onward to a rear family room complete with a wood burning stove and all opening out to the landscaped garden and central courtyard. This entire area benefits from underfloor heating and includes general fixtures and fittings, kitchen appliances and light fittings. Practicality is further enhanced at ground floor level by excellent built-in storage, including extensive understairs storage and utility provision, further adding to the home`s day-to-day functionality.
Upstairs, the first floor comprises a luxurious primary bedroom suite with Sash window overlooking Vernon Avenue, plush carpeting, a separate walk-in dressing room and a beautifully appointed ensuite shower room. There are two further well-proportioned double bedrooms on this level, both finished with fitted wardrobe storage and plush carpeting, offering comfortable and versatile accommodation suitable for family use, guests or home office space. A stylish family bathroom completes the floor.
At attic level, a large converted space currently in use as a fourth bedroom provides excellent additional accommodation, complete with Velux windows, eaves storage and an ensuite shower room, ideal for guests or growing families.
The bathrooms throughout the home are finished to a high standard, featuring stylish tiling, walk-in shower enclosures with double-headed power showers, vanity storage units, heated towel rails, WC facilities and contemporary finishes.
Outside, the landscaped rear garden is a particular feature bright, private and designed for both relaxation and entertaining, offering excellent outdoor space with a seamless connection to the living accommodation, as well as the added benefit of access to a secure gated rear lane.
Clontarf is one of Dublin`s most desirable coastal suburbs, offering an exceptional blend of seaside living and city convenience along the scenic Dublin Bay seafront, with stunning walks and cycle routes taking in views towards Howth and Bull Island. The area is particularly well known for St Anne`s Park, a superb expanse of parkland with woodland trails, formal gardens, sports facilities, playgrounds and a popular weekend farmers market, alongside nearby Dollymount Strand. Vernon Avenue provides a vibrant café and dining scene with an excellent selection of restaurants, coffee shops and traditional pubs, while a strong range of schools, sports clubs and everyday amenities make this a highly regarded and very family-friendly location.
