Description
This modern detached home is instantly appealing. A gravel driveway takes you through electric gates to reveal Torry in all its splendour. The handsome exterior with bay windows, pedimented storm porch and distinctive Hamptons conservatory create an overall feeling of timeless elegance a theme which is constant throughout the house. The reception hallway embodies this theme to perfection. A luxurious beige marble floor with chocolate marble detailing, solid wood panelling and ornate wrought iron staircase by Bushy Park ironworks combine to create an elevated sense of luxury without compromise. From here the flow of accommodation unfolds and delights.
The bespoke kitchen by Christoff Kitchens bears all the hallmarks of luxury interior design. A traditional kitchen with a strong contemporary accent provides the perfect backdrop for creating this laid back, stylish family hub. Hand painted in a neutral tone and off-set by dark oak inlays and black granite counter tops with waterfall edges.
A centre island has a sink and ample storage units with a further prep sink to the side. There is an American style Sub Zero fridge, two wine fridges, Miele integrated microwave, gas fired AGA with electric hob, stainless steel Sub Zero drawer fridges and warming drawers this is a kitchen that caters for every chef's needs.
Homely details include dresser style storage units and window seats. Functionality is provided by the well-appointed utility room positioned discreetly off the kitchen along with a separate pantry.
The kitchen opens to the conservatory, by award-winning Hamptons Conservatories, the experts in delivering architectural beauty and unparalleled space and light whilst remaining true to energy efficiency. The striking feature of this conservatory is the fine stone fireplace with slate hearth, which married with the crema marfil tiled flooring, creates a feeling of solidity to the delicate framework of the overall structure. This provides an overall feeling of warmth, cosiness and light creating the ultimate family space seamlessly connecting to the outdoors all the year around.
The living room opens to the drawing room. These are without doubt the formal reception rooms. Here the style subtly turns up a notch. Touches to include the Adams style fireplaces and timber flooring with richly chosen interior design fabrics creating accommodation which invites entertaining on a grand scale and is off set by the Hamptons Conservatory blending the outdoor accommodation with indoors.
The Family Room/Studio to the back of the house, currently used as a gym/dance studio enjoys a stone fireplace with gas fired inset and slate hearth and doors to the garden facing south. This room enjoys flexibility in its interpretation and would make a cosy family TV room as wall.
The west wing of the house also enjoys a degree of flexibility. Currently it is home to the fourth bedroom with generous walk-in wardrobe and bathroom. In addition there is a richly appointed study, with cherry wood flooring and dresser style sideboard. This room could be readily converted to a fifth bedroom or indeed the entire accommodation could make for a self-contained suite to suit independent family living.
The main bedroom suite is a testament to luxury. With large bay window reflecting light creating a bright oasis. Design touches include radiator cabinets, feature curved wall to the beautifully fitted and appointed dressing room. The landing reflects the opulent décor in all its' splendour with ornate staircase with brass handrail, radiator cabinets and solid wood panelling off which are located two further bedrooms either of which would sit well as the main bedroom in any other home.
The gardens of Torry are a unique and outstanding feature. Positioned on a generous site of 0.52ha/1.3 acres approx. in a rare and secluded rural-style setting within a Dublin suburb, the gardens at Torry offer unmatched privacy, thoughtfully designed and meticulously maintained to create a variety of moods and spaces. Mature planting and clever landscaping provide natural screening and a sense of retreat, while expansive, lawned areas offer plenty of room for family activities - perfect for football, a trampoline or swings. The patio spaces are strategically positioned to capture the sun and provide ideal spots for outdoor dining or quiet relaxation. Features include a pond with water feature, rose clad pergolas and raised flower beds that provide colour all year round.
Torry is, without doubt, a superb family home. Stylish, spacious and elegant, if offers generous accommodation complemented by the most exceptional gardens. Tucked away at the end of a private laneway off Brighton Road this home offers privacy and prestige in equal measure.
