Description
No. 44 York Road presents an exceptional opportunity to own a stunning, A3 rated detached Edwardian home in one of South County Dublin's most sought-after locations. This beautifully restored red-brick residence seamlessly blends original period charm with modern luxury, offering a perfect family home of approximately 250 sqm (2,691sqft). Featuring meticulous renovations and stylish interiors, the property also boasts a private, south-easterly facing rear garden—a serene escape in a highly desirable area.
This home strikes a perfect balance between function and elegance, showcasing a keen attention to detail and an eye for design that flows effortlessly through every room. Upon entering, you're greeted by the lobby with its original cream and red-tiled flooring, leading into the entrance hall, where dark engineered wood floors set the tone for the ground floor's chic décor. To the front of the house, a cosy library features a striking original fireplace, bespoke shelving, and a hidden door that reveals a secret home office/study.
The living room exudes warmth, with rich red walls and a charming cast-iron fireplace as its focal point. This inviting space also offers easy access to the home office. At the rear of the house, the open-plan kitchen, living, and dining areas have been designed to honour the home's original style while providing a modern, family-friendly space. Four access points lead out to the beautifully landscaped garden, and the large dining area is flanked by clever wood-panelled walls that cleverly conceal a home bar cabinet and a wine fridge. The sleek, navy in-frame kitchen features a large island, a corner pantry, quartz countertops, and top-of-the-line appliances, including a Bora induction hob and Quooker tap. Dual-aspect windows in the living area allow for lovely views of both the garden and patio. A utility room and guest WC complete the ground-floor accommodation.
Upstairs, this wonderful home offers four generously sized double bedrooms and a luxurious family bathroom. The main bedroom suite is a true retreat, with wall-to-wall wardrobes, a walk-in wardrobe through which you enter an en-suite. The room overlooks the garden and features views of a sedum roof. Two additional bedrooms include original fireplaces and share a well-appointed Jack and Jill en-suite shower room. The top level of the home has been cleverly converted into a spacious attic, offering additional living space.
The rear garden is a true oasis. Measuring an impressive 26m (85ft) in length, it has been professionally landscaped and is bordered by original granite walls, providing a peaceful, private sanctuary. The garden is mostly laid out in lawn, with a variety of colourful plants and mature trees. Two oatmeal granite patios offer ideal spaces for outdoor dining and relaxation, one of which is located at the foot of the garden. To the front of the house, a gravelled driveway provides off-street parking for two cars, behind secure electric gates, and a bike shed.
No. 44 York Road is a home of unrivalled quality in a prime location. The location of this Edwardian home is unbeatable. Within walking distance, you'll find an array of local amenities, including shops, cafés, restaurants, and bars. The nearby beaches at Seapoint and Sandycove are perfect for sea swimmers and leisurely strolls along the seafront, while the popular Monkstown Crescent offers a range of specialty food stores, fashion boutiques, and a selection of dining options, such as Bresson, FX Buckley's, Avoca, Café du Journal, and Cinnamon. Dun Laoghaire, just a short distance away, offers supermarkets, banks, and a multi-screen cinema, Lexicon library as well as four sailing clubs. Tennis enthusiasts will appreciate nearby clubs. The property benefits from excellent transport links, with easy access to the city centre, DART services, bus routes, and the Aircoach to Dublin Airport. Accommodation
