Description
29 Sandycove Avenue West is an elegant villa style residence-built c.1874, beautifully upgraded and presented to an exemplary standard of finish. Enjoying the benefit of landmarks such as the historic Forty Foot bathing area, Sandycove Beach, James Joyce Tower and the bijou eateries and wine bars of Glasthule moments from your front door, this home is the epitome of coastal living.
In 2015 the present owners set about a full renovation and extension, taking this double fronted home and transforming it into a modern family home with stylish interiors. In doing so, much emphasis was placed on utilising the westerly orientation, allowing light to shine through the contemporary kitchen, living, dining area. In this space there is a strong link to the outside with an inside / outside feel.
Laid out over two levels, the accommodation in brief comprises of elegant hallway with wainscoting panelling, a well-proportioned front sitting room / bedroom 4, a generous double bedroom with door to the modern ground floor bathroom and a third spacious double bedroom. At end of the hallway you are introduced to the stylish open plan kitchen, living, dining with a bespoke Newcastle Design kitchen, clever roof light and floor to ceiling windows creating an open-air transition to the west facing garden. Located off the kitchen is a utility room.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a large double room with two west facing windows, wall to wall fitted wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with full bath.
To the front of the property there are attractive wrought iron railings which bound the garden, a granite step leads to the front door with the balance of the garden set with stone chippings and privacy hedging. To the rear of the property there is a suntrap west facing garden enjoying complete privacy, laid out with low maintenance flag stones, bound with a granite wall to the south and a timber clad gate onto Rock Yard Lane. With the unique benefit of a garage (8.80m x 2.78m approx..) with vehicle access from the private Rock Yard Lane.
Number 29 could not be more conveniently located, situated 200m from Sandycove Beach and the Forty Foot where you can partake in your daily sea swimming experience and enjoy breathtaking walks along Scotsman's Bay.
