Description
3 Seaview Terrace is a distinguished three-storey-over-basement period residence, designed by the renowned architect John Semple in the 1830s. This elegant home, set on approximately 0.30 acres of secluded southwest-facing gardens, offers an impressive 470 m² (5,060 ft²) of accommodation. The property has been well maintained to preserve its original Georgian features, including high ceilings, intricate cornicing, marble fireplaces, and tall sash windows with shutters, but would now benefit from some modernisation and refurbishment.
The southwest-facing gardens are a standout feature of the property, designed to capture all-day sunshine. Lovingly cultivated and planted, they boast a variety of mature trees, shrubs, and plants that provide a spectrum of colour throughout the year. Generous, secure off-street parking is available to the front of the house.
Seaview Terrace is superbly located just off Ailesbury Road on this prestigious and sought-after stretch of six period homes leading to Nutley Road. The property is within comfortable walking distance of an extensive choice of amenities in Ballsbridge and Donnybrook, including excellent coffee shops, restaurants, and specialty shops. Many of the city's principal schools are close by, including St. Michael's, The Teresian School, Blackrock College, and St. Andrew's College. Recreational amenities are well provided for, with Elm Park Golf & Tennis Club. Accommodation
