Description

Welcome to 17 Rathgar Avenue, a beautiful villa-style terraced Victorian home, located in the heart of Dublin 6, close to Rathgar village. An attractive and handsome residence superbly positioned on the sunny south westerly side of this popular road, with the front garden leading to the imposing flight of granite steps. Beyond the hall door the well-appointed accommodation is laid out over two levels and is rich in period detail and has many of its original features including high ceilings, ornate cornicing and original fireplaces. Currently extending to 229sq.m / 2,465 sq. ft (approx.) the property offers a superb mix of accommodation comprising: at hall level, a gracious entrance hall and two beautifully elegant interconnecting reception rooms resplendent in period features including matching marble fireplaces and 12 foot high ceilings. There are two large double bedrooms on this level with a shower room located on the hall return. Stairs lead to the garden level which comprises spacious hallway, a kitchen/breakfast room, 3 double bedrooms, a bathroom, storeroom and a sunroom which overlooks the fantastic mature, south west facing rear garden. The gardens both front and rear are a real feature of this wonderful home. Set well back from the road, with a large driveway offering excellent off-street parking, the front garden features some mature hedging and original iron railings. The rear garden (103 ft x 38 ft), is bordered by cut stone walling and is an oasis of privacy and peace. A manicured rolling lawn is bordered by wide herbaceous borders lovingly planted and stocked with an array of colour affording year round interest. The combination of formal planting with flower borders and mature trees is simply breath-taking. There is a glasshouse, a brick built shed and all-important rear pedestrian access. The location of the property is second to none in terms of convenience - just a gentle stroll away from Rathgar and Ranelagh villages, with Rathmines town centre nearby. It is also within easy reach of local junior and senior schools, specialist shops, restaurants and fine delicatessens. This fine property is also within 2.5 miles approx. of St. Stephen's Green and many of Dublin's principal places of business. A very happy home to the current owners for over 40 years, 17 Rathgar Avenue offers a wonderful opportunity for a range of purchasers - viewing comes highly recommended!
