This is a very special opportunity to purchase this attractive double fronted bay windowed family home in what is considered one of Dublin's most sought after and exclusive locations close to the junction with Ailesbury Road.

This semi-detached property which extends to 331sqm / 3,563sqft approx. underwent a significant refurbishment and redesign programme by its current owners and now provides wonderfully elegant and superbly appointed accommodation presented with great flair and style, enjoying the significant bonus of having a large gardens extending to 0.34 acre approx. with a detached double garage to the side extending to a further 95sqm / 1,022sqft approx. which is currently used as a home gym with self-contained games room overhead including a shower room. In addition, there is a well screened front garden which is accessed via electric security gates and provides excellent off-street parking for several cars.

On entering the property, the first thing that strikes you is the wonderfully spacious and bright reception hallway with a clear view to the garden, off which you will find the sitting room to the front whilst the drawing room overlooks the garden and is screened from the hall by a floor to ceiling sliding door. The modern bespoke kitchen is split level with the dining room and opens to the patio. There is a family room, utility room and guest wc to the side.

Upstairs on the first floor, there are four bedrooms off the landing with gallery to the hall below. The main bedroom suite boasts a luxurious ensuite and dressing room. There is also a large attic room with ensuite.

Located close to the junction with Ailesbury Road and only a few minutes' walk to Sydney Parade Dart Station, the property could not benefit from a more convenient location being within a pleasant stroll of an extensive choice of amenities and the excellent shopping and recreational facilities of Ballsbridge, Sandymount and Donnybrook. Many of the city's premier restaurants, hotels and principal places of business are within comfortable walking distance as is the city centre. The airport is only a 20-minute drive via the port tunnel. It also benefits from close proximity to many of Dublin's best junior and secondary schools.
