Description

Rarely does such an impressive and exceptionally bright family home come to the market in what is considered one of Dublin's most sought after and exclusive locations close to the junction with Ailesbury Road. No. 154 Merrion Road is an attractive double fronted bay windowed residence providing 419sqm / 4,510sqft (approx.) of stunningly elegant and tastefully appointed accommodation. The property has been extensively refurbished, redesigned, and extended to an exceptional standard throughout with great flair and attention to detail and will appeal to any discerning purchasers. Boasting a B1 energy rating, some of the upgrades include underfloor heating throughout, geothermal heating system, heat pump, solar panels, bespoke joinery, solid walnut floors throughout the ground floor by Ebony & Co, Arne Jacobsen designed Vola bathroom fittings and a contemporary Bulthaup B3 kitchen sourced and fitted by Inhofer, Munich Germany. There is an integrated i-light system throughout the house. The kitchen also benefits from motorised Lutron blinds on all windows. On entering the property, the quality of the accommodation on offer is immediately evident. As part of the refurbishment, the floors were lowered resulting in tall ceiling heights throughout the ground floor. The beautifully presented and well-appointed living accommodation flows perfectly and interconnects with the impressive exceptionally bright double height kitchen featuring floor to ceiling windows overlooking the garden and making it a home ideal for entertaining. The accommodation at ground floor comprises an entrance hall with guest wc, interconnecting drawing room and dining room, music room, double height kitchen / breakfast room, utility area, garden /living room and a large den/study. Stairs to a gallery reading area which overlooks the kitchen. On the first floor, there are four double bedrooms, all with ensuites and the stunning master bedroom suite features a luxurious bathroom and bespoke walk-in dressing room crafted in walnut with polished chrome trim. A second study/home office with walnut integrated desk and cabinetry and a practical laundry room complete the accommodation at this level. On the top floor, there is an extremely spacious fifth bedroom with ensuite and a dual aspect overlooking the front and back gardens. Four separate areas of generous eaves storage are also located here. The private gardens are another feature of this fine family home. The front garden is screened from the road and is landscaped with gravel and bordered by mature planting and hedging with parking for several cars behind tall timber electric gates which include a separate pedestrian entrance. The rear garden is walled, largely in lawn with mature trees, planter beds and a large tiled patio with courtyard, ideal for al fresco dining. The property also benefits from proximity to many of Dublin's premier schools including St Michaels College and Blackrock College. UCD Belfield, Trinity College and other third level institutions are also close by. Amenities within walking distance of this outstanding family home include the Merrion Centre, RDS, AVIVA stadium and numerous hotels including the InterContinental, Herbert Park Hotel and The Clayton Hotel. There are a variety of shops including a supermarket, boutiques, cafes, and restaurants in Ballsbridge. There are excellent transport facilities with access to the DART and bus corridors. The property is also within walking distance of St Vincent's University Hospital.
