Description
Refurbished and restored with great flair and meticulous attention to detail in recent years, No. 49 is a stunning example as to how the elegance and period detail of the Victorian era can seamlessly combine with the practical and contemporary comforts and conveniences required for present day living.
The appeal of this wonderfully elegant and tastefully presented residence which provides 3,750sqft / 350sqm (approx.) is further enhanced by the magnificent 120ft long west facing back garden which has been superbly landscaped under the watchful eye of award-winning designer Damien Costello, creating a haven of tranquillity.
Situated at the Clyde Road end of Raglan Road, the property enjoys one of Dublin's most sought-after and convenient locations with many of the city's principal amenities within comfortable walking distance. Just some of these amenities include the extensive recreational facilities provided by the 36 acres of Herbert Park and the numerous cafés', boutiques, speciality shops and restaurants on Leeson Street, Baggot Street and in Donnybrook.
Also close by, are Fitzwilliam L.T.C., the R.D.S. now the home of Leinster R.F.C. and the AVIVA National Rugby & Football Stadium.
Raglan Road also benefits from having an excellent choice of Primary schools, such as Kildare Place, Sandford and St. Mary's National Schools close by, as well as some of the city's premier secondary schools including Sandford Park, Gonzaga College, St. Conleth's, Muckross Park, Loreto College and C.U.S. to name but a few. The National Concert Hall, History Museum, Art Gallery and the Royal Hibernian Academy of Arts are also within a pleasant stroll, as is Grafton Street, Dublin's premier shopping street, being the home of many fashion labels, boutiques, Brown Thomas department store and the iconic Bewley's café.
All in all, this is a very rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a stunningly elegant period residence, in walk in condition, on one of Dublin's most sought after and convenient roads, with the bonus of a magnificent 120ft long (approx.) and beautifully landscaped back garden. Accommodation
