Description

Number 79 Harold's Cross Road is an instantly appealing and exceptionally attractive Victorian residence of considerable charm and character. Dating back to c.1840, it is truly a beautiful home of immense style, incorporating many original period features and also offering a wonderful rear garden stretching to approximately 100 feet, all situated in a most prestigious residential location within walking distance of Dublin city centre and minutes from Portobello, Rathmines, Rathgar and Terenure. This property is surrounded by all the conveniences of modern living and is the perfect choice for those seeking a well-proportioned home with original period features in a most popular location.

Boasting generous proportions throughout, with a size of approximately 102 sq. m (1,098 sq. ft) in area, this fine family home also comes to market with a further 14 sq. m (151 sq. ft) of light filled living/working space located in the rear garden. The fully insulated detached studio was built c.2014 and is ideal for those seeking additional space to work from home or provide guest accommodation. This property presents an ideal opportunity for growing families seeking a long-term family home without having to compromise on location.

This fine home has been lovingly maintained and sensitively refurbished over the years to provide a comfortable and modern home while retaining all its original period charm. With high ceilings, original sash windows, and rear french doors opening out into the courtyard garden. Every room in this period home is airy and flooded with natural light. On the ground floor there is a living room to the front and a double bedroom to the rear that leads out through double doors to the courtyard. This bedroom could also be used as another reception room if required. Both rooms along with the kitchen/dining room boast attractive fireplaces. Access to the garden is from the bright, long hallway just before the kitchen/dining room, which is located to the rear of the property. This leads to the pantry/utility, and family bathroom with its original rolltop bath. The bright pantry/utility overlooks the garden and really brings the 'outdoors in' through multiple windows.

On the first floor there are two generous double bedrooms, both with original fireplaces. The large bedroom to the front has the original sash windows and shutters. The landing area is particularly appealing with the beautifully restored original staircase, and the large window overlooking the rear garden is a lovely spot to sit and unwind.

The rear garden is a real asset to this wonderful home. The restored original stone walls encase an enchanting garden set out in lawn with mature borders of pear, apple and fig trees, and a vegetable patch and has been thoughtfully planted with pollinator plants creating year-round interest.

The property is ideally positioned within a gentle stroll from Harold's Cross, Rathmines, Terenure and Rathgar villages which offer every conceivable amenity including excellent local shopping, several fine delicatessens and coffee shops, numerous restaurants and pubs, and a range of leisure facilities. The area is extremely well served with excellent primary and secondary schools, a wide range of religious and sporting options, local public parks Harold's Cross and Bushy Park are all within close proximity, whilst St Stephen's Green is a 20-minute walk away. Public transport is also well catered for with regular bus services providing ease of access to the city centre and beyond

All in all, No.79 Harold's Cross Road is one of those rare finds, something a little bit special with a real 'fall in love' factor. One not to be missed!
