Description

Light-filled, well-proportioned, cleverly extended, stylishly presented and rich in period features are only some of the words that can be used to aptly describe 19 Ormond Road. This classical Victorian end of terrace 4-bedroom home (216sqm/2325sqft approx.) has been transformed by its current owners and presents to the market in superb condition. In 2018, keen to preserve its Victorian charm, the current owners, along with their architect Karen Brownlee, embarked on a significant and sensitive renovation with a clear brief of maximizing light, space, comfort and functional day-to-day family living. The result is a successful collaboration of Victoriana and contemporary design with fantastic modern comforts, stylish fit-out and neutral décor all contained within a generous floor area of 216 sqm / 2325 sqft approx. A very deceptive hallway leads to two beautiful interconnecting reception rooms with high ceilings, matching marble fireplaces and original timber floors. The crittall-style steel doors from the family room open to the stunning new extension, where the contemporary specifications are really showcased with Porter & Jones fittings, expansive marble splashback, a 4-metre island, part-glazed roof, exposed brick wall, underfloor heating, paneled wall with concealed pantry, storage and utility area etc. A much sought-after home office/bedroom 4 and wet room are secreted away off this space with its own access to the rear garden. Upstairs the light, space and luxury continue with 3 double bedrooms the main is particularly impressive spanning the full width of the property which are well-served by a family bathroom and a separate shower room. Also of note, are the low maintenance private gardens. The rear garden is a place for the entire family to use and enjoy accessed directly from the kitchen/dining room through bifold doors, it is perfect for al fresco dining and recreation. The front garden is well-screened and set back from the road, with access to an enclosed side passageway, providing side access and also hugely practical for storing bins, bicycles, garden equipment etc. Description of this beautiful home would not be complete without mention of its location. Highly desirable and convenient, Ormond Road is situated only a few minutes' walk from the Beechwood Luas stop and local shopping on Dunville Avenue. Situated between Ranelagh and Rathmines villages, at the city-end of Dublin 6, it is also ideally located for the many junior and senior schools including Lios Na Nog, Scoil Bhride, Ranelagh Multi-Denominational School, Kildare Place, Gonzaga College, Sandford Park, Alexandra College and St Mary's College etc. Ranelagh Gardens Park, Palmerston Park, and Belgrave Square are also within a gentle stroll. Those discerning buyers who wish to simply turn the key to their new home, need look no further No.19 Ormond Road presents a superb opportunity to do so!
