Description
This attractive and elegant two storey over garden level period residence provides spacious accommodation of outstanding quality, which is beautifully presented throughout, now resulting in a home that offers a perfect balance of living and bedroom accommodation. It enjoys a prime location only 550m from Sandymount Green with uninterrupted views of Dublin Bay. No 41 Strand Road is a mid-Victorian end of terrace home, located on this attractive terrace of 7 houses, built by Michael Meade in 1854. Michael Meade (1814 - 1886) was a prolific builder who originally came to Dublin from Askeaton in Co Limerick. His firm was responsible for much of the residential construction between Ballsbridge and Merrion Square together with a large number of churches, civic buildings and civil works. Meade also built a number of houses on Ailesbury Road including St Michael's House, built as his home, which was completed in 1868 and was styled on “Osbourne”, Queen Victoria's Isle of Wight residence. St Michael's House later became St Michael College. This four-bedroom (all double) family home is approached by granite steps leading up to the front door and attractive porch. The original hall door complete with fanlight and stained glass side panels opens into the bright hallway with ceiling cornice and dado rail. To the right, there are two elegant interconnecting reception rooms, both with original ceiling cornice and stunning marble mantlepieces. On the hall floor return, there is a guest wc and a double bedroom with door to balcony and steps leading to the garden. At garden level, the accommodation has been opened up to create a superb everyday family space. A separate entrance from the front garden leads into the front lobby and in turn into the spacious living / dining room to the front and through to the modern kitchen / breakfast room which overlooks the garden. A tv / play room opens to the garden with a guest wc completing the accommodation at this level. At the top of the house, there are three further double bedrooms, a luxuriously appointed bathroom and separate shower room. To the front of the property, the property is set back from the road behind a mature hedge and original iron railings and gate. The large private rear garden benefits from a south westerly orientation, is laid out mainly in lawn with flower borders and a large patio area is ideal for al fresco dining. To the rear of the garden, there is a separate self-contained studio offering a variety of uses with independent access onto the lane. The property could not be more conveniently located, being just opposite Sandymount Strand and Sandymount village with its unique village atmosphere and excellent choice of shops, boutiques, and restaurants within walking distance. Also, within a short walking distance is Sandymount DART station which, combined with several bus routes, ensure easy access into and across the city. Just some of the other amenities close-by include the Westwood Leisure Centre, Claremont Tennis Club/Railway Union Cricket, Hockey, and Football Club, the RDS, the InterContinental Hotel, Aviva Stadium, St Vincent's University Hospital, and the Merrion Shopping Centre. Many of Dublin's premier schools and several universities are also within easy reach. St Stephen's Green and the IFSC are within a short drive and Dublin Airport is only 20 minutes away via the Dublin Port Tunnel.
