Description

Located on a quiet, picturesque terrace, this very pretty double fronted villa-style residence, built in 1848, is an eye-catcher. With its perfect internal symmetry and gracious proportions, this home offers a balance of well-appointed yet flexible accommodation that's further enhanced by beautiful period features. It is a home of elegance and charm about 100 metres from the seafront. Sheltered behind its roadside hedging lies a lovely semi-wild and west-facing garden with its generous deck for entertaining friends or simply enjoying a quiet day in the sunshine. The light-laden entrance hall has original features of the house. There are four excellently proportioned rooms off the hall with a variety of uses and easily adaptable to specific needs. Again, each of them is enhanced by original features including wooden floors, fireplaces and high ceilings with the original coving. The large contemporary kitchen contrasts with the traditional style of the hall level but in a way that enhances the overall feel of the house. Its sleek design makes it a perfect space for cooking and casual dining and it opens out to a large paved outdoor dining area with a wonderful retractable awning that provides cover and atmosphere. There is also a guest w.c. at this level. Upstairs, on the return, there's a double bedroom and large bathroom that is, effectively, an ensuite. Another half dozen steps brings you to the attic conversion which serves as a very large master bedroom with a bath and shower ensuite. The bedroom includes a small study area and has a vast storage capacity. The size and the generous windows make this room one of the features of this wonderful home. Charlemont Avenue is a gem of a location with access to the seafront, the west and east piers and promenade at one end while, a few steps in the opposite direction and you're on main street Dun Laoghaire. The town offers many amenities, including excellent shopping, trendy restaurants and cafes. The seafront offers excellent facilities for marine enthusiasts including yacht clubs. The boutique villages of Monkstown and Glasthule bookend the locality and boast more specialist boutiques, eateries and delicatessens. There are several highly regarded schools within close proximity, including Rathdown, CBC Monkstown, Blackrock College, St. Joseph of Cluny and Loreto Dalkey. The avenue is a few minutes walk to transport links including the DART and several Dublin Bus routes including the 7, 7A, 46A, 45A and 111. In conclusion, this pretty double fronted villa style residence is a masterpiece that offers a blend of modern luxury and timeless elegance. Large enough for family living and a lovely option for those considering rightsizing, its current owners have added to its timeless graciousness, with amendments inside and out that make it a wonderful home for the discerning purchaser.
