Dublin, Rathmines, Ireland

DNG are delighted to present 21 Palmerston Park, an imposing period residence enjoying an exceptional position overlooking one of Dublin 6’s most attractive parks. Set along a particularly quiet section of Palmerston Park, the house presents a handsome and impressive façade, with off-street parking to the front and uninterrupted views across the park. The property extends to approximately 325 sq m in total, including the utility and pantry accommodation to the side, and combines substantial scale, outstanding room proportions and a wealth of period character.

Number 21 has been carefully maintained by the same family for three generations, and comes to the market with many of the original ornate features intact. The accommodation is arranged over garden level, hall level and first floor and offers considerable flexibility. At hall level, an elegant entrance hall leads to two spectacular interconnecting reception rooms, both distinguished by their generous proportions and original period features. There is also a further reception room and cloakroom at this level. Four bedrooms and a family bathroom are positioned on the top floor. The kitchen, family room and study are at garden level, together with a fifth bedroom, shower room and extensive utility, pantry and storage accommodation. The scale, character and versatile, unaltered layout of this property provide a rare opportunity to create a unique family home in one of Dublin 6’s most distinguished settings.

To the rear is a private mature garden extending to approximately 65 feet. Mainly laid in lawn and enclosed by mature planting and old stone walls, it provides a generous and peaceful outdoor setting. To the front, the outstanding parkland position places the walks and mature trees of Palmerston Park immediately opposite the house.

Palmerston Park has long been regarded as one of Dublin 6’s foremost residential addresses, prized for its elegant period architecture, mature surroundings and convenient location between Rathmines, Rathgar and Ranelagh. An excellent range of shops, cafés and restaurants is available in the surrounding villages, while many of Dublin’s leading schools are within easy reach. The Luas at Cowper and Milltown, together with several bus routes, provide convenient access to the city centre and beyond. Number 21 offers a particularly compelling combination of setting, scale and architectural presence in this prime Dublin 6 location.
