Description
Gracious living is epitomised by this beautifully proportioned Regency period residence decorated and presented immaculately from top to bottom.
No.10 Longford Terrace represents a modern and sophisticated fusion of both old and new worlds. Quality, style and incredible attention to detail have been used throughout in the redesigning and restoring of this classic three storey over garden level period property. Superbly positioned on this prominent terrace set in the ever-popular Monkstown, the property benefits from breath-taking uninterrupted sea views over Dublin Bay and out to Howth. It is evident on crossing the threshold that the property has not only been extremely well maintained but indeed has been continuously upgraded in recent years and it now effortlessly combines grace and charm. There are a host of period features intact across this substantial family home of approx. 405 sq.m. (4,359 sq.ft.) including very impressive original fireplaces, stunning ceiling coving and cornicing. To the front of the property there is off street parking behind electronic gates while to the rear there is a private and secluded south facing landscaped garden.
The accommodation briefly comprises a welcoming entrance hallway with cloak room and guest w.c. To the front there is a stunning living room overlooking Dublin Bay with feature marble fireplace. To the rear is a magnificent hand painted kitchen by Andrew Ryan with top of the range Gaggenau appliances together with large utility room, further w.c. and access to the garden. The first floor return includes a very fine study while on the first floor there is a drawing room with spectacular views out towards Howth and living room with magnificent marble fireplace. There is also a large double bedroom on this level. The second-floor return houses a shower room while the second floor contains three more generous double bedrooms to include the principal bedroom and a luxurious family bathroom.
At garden level the property enjoys a superb home cinema/entertainment room that leads to a well fitted study. There is also a large guest bedroom and bathroom recently fitted by Waterloo together with a kitchenette.
The front garden provides parking for at least two cars behind electronic gates. To the rear is a private south facing professionally landscaped garden with large patio and feature cut stone granite walls. At lower garden level there is further storage, a wine cellar and boiler house.
The location is second to none being within a short stroll from Monkstown village with its wide array of boutique style shops, excellent restaurants, cafes and bars. Blackrock town centre as well as Dun Laoghaire are also available close at hand with a whole host of further amenities. The seafront and Monkstown/Salthill Dart station are all literally within a stone's throw. There is an excellent choice of renowned primary and secondary schools close by and superb recreational and leisure facilities not least the four yacht clubs and extensive marina at Dun Laoghaire harbour and with its two piers that will be of interest to the marine and sailing enthusiast. One literally has to only cross the street to the bathing place by the Martello tower at Seapoint. The one way traffic system on the seafront makes for a wonderful quiet and peaceful vista with cyclists pedalling by and hardy swimmers making their way to and from Seapoint. Accommodation
