`A most unique opportunity to acquire two adjoining Victorian buildings in this prime location on the corner of Northumberland Road and Saint Mary`s Road, in the heart of Dublin`s embassy belt.


`A most unique opportunity to acquire two adjoining Victorian buildings in this prime location on the corner of Northumberland Road and Saint Mary`s Road, in the heart of Dublin`s embassy belt.`

Originally built as adjoining residences, and subsequently as Pre-63 residential units Nos. 47 and 49 were converted some 40 years ago into their current format and use as a school premises and the School of Philosophy and Economic Science. As the junior school plans to relocate to Dublin 6 this summer, the entire is available to purchase with vacant possession. These stunning buildings have previously been used as an educational facility, it does however, have the potential, subject to the required planning permissions, to be converted into a bijou hotel, a deluxe apartment development, a high-end office headquarters, an embassy or simply restored to its original use as two distinguished city residences.

The accommodation extends to approximately 880 sq. m / 9,472 sq. ft. over three floors, both properties interconnecting on each level, allowing for seamless use throughout and offering significant flexibility.

Both of the original residences have been considerably extended to facilitate their use as an educational facility, to include a state-of-the-art internal fire escape, a fully functioning canteen kitchen facility, boys` and girls` toilet facilities, a full complement of classrooms and lecture halls, together with an administrator`s office in the hall level of No. 47. The accommodation is naturally bright and airy, making the most of the sunlight from both east and west. It is incredibly well maintained throughout, with many of the original features intact, to include sash windows, cornices, and centre roses.

Outside to the rear is a southwest facing garden, currently a play area for the school, with direct access off Saint Mary`s Road, could easily be used for car parking. While ornate railed mature gardens are to the front of both properties enjoying pedestrian access. These two fine red brick Victorian properties have an impressive profile from the main road enjoying a prominent location.
