Description
Nestled on one of Blackrock's most desirable residential roads, 5 Glenart Avenue is a beautifully presented semi-detached period home that seamlessly combines timeless charm with contemporary comforts. This elegant property enjoys a peaceful setting while offering unbeatable convenience to all the amenities of Blackrock Village and the surrounding area.
Upon entry, one is immediately welcomed by a generous reception hall featuring high ceilings and ornate cornicing, creating an immediate sense of space and grandeur. To the front lies a gracious drawing room, complete with a striking bay window and feature fireplace, exuding period elegance and ideal for both sophisticated entertaining and relaxed family living. A second, equally impressive reception room with its own bay window and wood-burning stove adds warmth and versatility to the living space.
The heart of the home lies in the well-appointed kitchen, which opens into a bright breakfast room that enjoys views of and access to the sun-drenched south-facing rear garden. A separate utility room and guest w.c. add further practicality to the ground floor layout.
Upstairs, there are four generously sized bedrooms, including a very fine main bedroom with en suite bathroom. A home office provides the perfect space for remote working or study, while the large family bathroom is well appointed.
Outside, the rear garden has been professionally landscaped to create a serene, private retreat. Bathed in all-day sunshine thanks to its south-facing aspect, it is rich with mature planting, manicured lawn, and thoughtfully designed patio areas. A timber garden room, fitted with double-glazed windows, offers additional flexibility—ideal for use as a gym, studio or second home office. A gated side entrance provides convenient access between the front and rear gardens.
The location is second to none, just a short stroll from Blackrock Village, home to an array of boutique shops, cafés, restaurants, and excellent transport links via the DART and QBC. A number of South County Dublin's top schools are within easy reach, as are recreational amenities including coastal walks, sports clubs, and UCD's Carysfort and Belfield campuses.
