Description
Peering out over the picturesque four-acre park is this impressive mid-terraced Victorian home. Built circa 1860, No. 11 is truly a home of distinction having been renovated to an impeccable standard by the current owner. While the property is BER-exempt, the heavy lifting has been done for the prospective purchaser as the property underwent a comprehensive renovation program approximately 15 years ago to include a new roof and rewiring. Boasting 303 sq m of elegantly proportioned living accommodation with period features such as tall ceilings, ornate cornicing, sash windows with working shutters and stunning fireplaces in abundance throughout, it seamlessly blends old world elegance with modern conveniences to create this exceptional home.
A flight of granite steps ascends to the front door with a fanlight and side lights allowing natural light to bathe the entrance hall. The magnificent formal reception rooms with matching French, white Carrara marble fireplaces on the hall floor are ideal for entertaining on a grand scale. On the return we arrive at the sumptuous bathroom with cast iron slipper bath, double shower and twin marble sinks. Stairs descend to the carefully designed open plan layout in the garden level providing the perfect spaces for contemporary family living. A marble tiled floor throughout and underfloor heating provide a cosy ambience. The bespoke hand-crafted kitchen units are painted in a beautiful sage green with gilt highlights, there is a large centre island with granite countertop and leading through to the dining room with stunning English marble fireplace and French doors provide access to the garden. A guest wc is housed under the stairs. Off the dining room is the dual aspect family room with another stunning English marble fireplace. From the entrance hall stairs ascend to the first floor return where we arrive the first of the four double bedrooms, overlooking the rear garden and with the benefit of an en-suite shower room. The main and second bedrooms are located on the first floor. The bay windowed principal suite spans the width of the house and enjoys glorious views over the park together with a luxurious en-suite bathroom. The fourth bedroom, again a double with en-suite shower room on the second floor completes the extensive living accommodation.
The landscaped front and rear gardens are particularly noteworthy, the formal French Box Garden to the front with feature central urn is synonymous with the Victorian period. The rear garden is colonial style, featuring limestone paving, mature planting and a summer house at the end of the garden. The garden is a place of serenity and is ideal for 'Al Fresco' entertaining. There is pedestrian access to the lane at the rear of Royal Terrace East which can be vehicular accessed from Tivoli Road.
Royal Terrace East was developed by Francis Nugent when he acquired the land from Lords de Vesci and Longford, as part of the rapid expansion of the south of Dublin following the opening in 1834 of the Dublin and Kingstown Railway. Lauded as one of Dun Laoghaire's most sought-after addresses, the location could not be more convenient, offering ease of access to an array of social and essential amenities including shopping facilities in Dun Laoghaire, Glasthule and Monkstown. There is an excellent choice of highly regarded primary and secondary schools in the nearby locality to include The Harold School, St. Joseph's National School, Blackrock College, Loreto Dalkey, Holy Child Killiney, Castle Park and CBC Monkstown. For recreational facilities Monkstown Lawn Tennis Club is a short walk away as is the seafront with its four yacht clubs and scenic coastal walks along the East and West Piers.
The area is well serviced by public transport links with the DART and several Dublin Bus routes providing swift and easy transport to the city and beyond and The Aircoach will take you to Dublin Airport in approximately one hour. The M50 which provides access to all arterial routes around the country, is a short drive away.
