Description
A neat railed garden frames the handsome facade of this incredibly appealing home that resides on the fringes of Dun Laoghaire town, a popular seaside suburb bookended by the boutique villages of both Glasthule and Monkstown. Extending to nearly 2,200sq.ft., it provides an excellent balance of light filled and generously proportioned accommodation which has been upgraded with great style and flair, while being mindful to respect the property's original integrity.
As soon as you cross over the threshold you get a flavour of the space and style this home offers. The dark moody walls of the entrance hall serve to draw your focus up to the beautiful plasterwork above you and the contrast from dark to light as you pass into the living room, further accentuates the abundance of natural light which drenches the graciously appointed interconnecting reception rooms with matching feature fireplaces, original floors, dividing doors and under floor heating, which is throughout the ground floor. On the hall floor return there is a guest w.c. and a kitchen/dining area that connects to the private sunny garden. On the next return there is an en-suite bedroom and there are two further double bedrooms on the first floor, the principle of which spans the entire width of the house with a dual aspect and feature fireplace along with an en-suite bathroom. On the top return there is a shower room and fourth bedroom in use as a study.
To the rear of the house there is a low maintenance west facing garden with a lawn bordered by attractive paving and raised beds stocked with mature plants and shrubs. The property also benefits from wide side access via double gates.

Stunning coastal walks are to be enjoyed along the East and West piers. The Lexicon, National Maritime Museum and The People's Park with its popular farmers market are also nearby.
