An exceptionally attractive end of terrace double fronted Georgian period residence oozing charm and character that has retained many of the period embellishments of this classic era. Longford House is a beautiful aesthetically pleasing home that has been lovingly maintained and sympathetically upgraded over the years by the present owners to provide generous free flowing accommodation over two levels benefitting from a tranquil landscaped suntrap low maintenance cottage garden and a stunning garden studio to the rear.
Briefly the accommodation comprises a generously proportioned sitting room with wide plank solid reclaimed timber floor and a feature period fireplace. Next is a snug with a large multi-paned window overlooking the rear garden and in turn leads into the kitchen. A breakfast room extension and dining room are positioned either side of the inner lobby that also houses a pantry and guest w.c. Upstairs there are four bedrooms, and a family bathroom concludes the accommodation at this level.
The front walled garden has a path leading to the front door. To the side of the walled garden, a laneway leads to a side door into the breakfast room and through to the garden. The rear garden is low maintenance, maturely planted with trees, shrubs and herbaceous perennials. It includes two water features and brick and gravelled patio areas. At the end of the garden, there is a wonderful timber constructed studio measuring 4m x 8.2m (13'1"" x 26'11""), perfect for home office, yoga room, home gym, playroom.
The location of this stunning home is second to none, being positioned within a short walk of the local shopping in Monkstown village with excellent transport links, bus and DART and only a short commute from the excellent shopping in Dun Laoghaire, Cornelscourt and Blackrock shopping centres. There is a wide selection of recreational and leisure activities surrounding Longford House, which include a selection of golf, tennis and rugby clubs as well as Monkstown Sports, Pool & Leisure Centre, only a short walk away. The four yacht clubs in Dun Laoghaire with its excellent marina will be of major interest to the sailing enthusiast. The area is surrounded by excellent primary & secondary schools.
