Description

Sherry FitzGerald introduce this attractive and unique residence, No. 3 Kilteragh Pines. Positioned on the site of a mansion built by Sir Horace Plunkett in 1903, re-built in 1923 and divided into six houses. No. 3 occupies the major part of the central block of Kilteragh House and is presented in excellent decorative order with a distinct Mediterranean influence to include Carrara marble flooring, ornate marble and limestone fireplaces and a setting that is more akin to a country estate than a Dublin suburb. A pedimented hall door opens up to reveal this very handsome period home. A storm porch opens to the reception hallway with imposing white marble fireplace and Carrara marble tiled floor which runs throughout the ground floor accommodation. From here the eye is drawn to the double-glazed doors which lead to the formal reception areas. An open plan drawing / dining room is awash with light and enjoys a wonderful ornate, French style marble fireplace creating an overall feeling of understated grandeur. It enjoys a French door to the rear garden and also a door which leads out to an inner hall with guest toilet and door to the garden. The living room is located off the inner hall. This generously proportioned room benefits from a large shallow bay which washes the space in natural light. This room enjoys a contemporary limestone fireplace with brick backed inset, a charming Shaker style panelled ceiling and a fitted desk with shelving and storage presses and you get a sense that this is where the accommodation relaxes to provide for day-to-day tv watching and entertainment. The kitchen cum breakfast room is located to the front of the house. It enjoys wall and floor presses in a soft grey with back-lit glass display units. There is a breakfast counter which can fit up to four high stools for on-the-go dining. A larder unit in the corner houses a double fridge. The entire room is panelled with solid wood panelling and offset by Carrara marble tiling to be found extensively throughout. A door from the kitchen leads to a Butler's Pantry with clever pocket worktop areas which push back discretely when not required. There are further storage presses here. A door to a storage cupboard also leads to a basement area. On the first floor there are five very spacious bedrooms to include the main bedroom. The main bedroom enjoys a shallow bay which reflects wonderful light and overlooks the garden to the rear. There are louvred wardrobes, a shoe closet and well-appointed ensuite shower room. A further double bedroom is also ensuite. The only single bedroom is currently being used as a gym. A luxuriously appointed family bathroom with bath and separate shower is located to the front of the house. In addition on the first floor there is a utility room. To the top of the house there is a home office well positioned away from the rest of the accommodation complete with exposed brick wall and Velux windows reflecting so much light which is a feature throughout the house. This is without doubt a superb family home enjoying a unique setting with many tastefully applied design touches. Every detail has been considered in its refurbishment which combines formal reception accommodation and spacious family living spaces in a charming and elegant setting. The gardens of No. 3 are a sheer delight. The front is approached by a circular driveway and the back garden with original granite stone walls, some capped with slate tiles enjoy the backdrop of the wider communal gardens giving a sense of space and grandeur found in a country estate. The patio area enjoys a southerly orientation and paved with the original flagstones. A paved patio area, half-moon in shape, to the rear of the garden provides the perfect sweet spot to enjoy the setting westerly sun. A small garden to the side provides a secret hideaway. The lawned area is generous in size with plenty of space to kick ball however there is, in addition, large communal gardens for the enjoyment of the residents with delightful clematis clad pergola, pathways and yew trees creating a wonderful setting for this unique home. A separate lock up is positioned a short stroll away ideal for storage or small car.
