Description

Dating from c.1810, No.86 is a beautifully restored and extended double fronted period residence (122 sq.m approx) nicely positioned adjacent to Stoneybatter village with a south facing courtyard garden. The property was renovated and extended in 2006 shortly after the current owners purchased the home which was in very poor repair at the time. They undertook a loving and comprehensive restoration project designing a home with interiors that are stylish and comfortable which complement the period charm of this home. Throughout much attention has been given to creating a warm and inviting modern home whilst retaining many period features including, high ceilings with coving, the use of reclaimed parquet flooring, working window shutters and sash windows. Externally this fine home has been exquisitely repointed in the wigging style (a Dublin style of tuck pointing) this is a specialised job and was carried with great care and dedication by master Stonemason Mr Shane Nolan which is a stunning example of this fine craftsmanship which is much admired by local residences. As the property is a protected structure all works undertaken throughout the restoration project internally and externally, was carried out under the guidance/supervision of Dublin City Conservation team. The owners employed Oson Architects a leading architectural practice to oversee the conservation and renovation works and employed additional crafts people to complete the plasterwork, windows and staircase. Set back from the road and accessed via a pedestrian gate you approach the front of the home through landscaped low maintenance gardens. Off the hallway there are two lovely reception rooms both with reclaimed parquet flooring, coal effect gas fires and period detailing. To the rear a modern open plan kitchen/dining area opens into a private suntrap town garden via bifold doors. The kitchen is bespoke in a traditional style with a large breakfast counter providing the perfect place to congregate after a busy day. Under the stairs is a fully tiled guest w.c. Upstairs there are three generous double bedrooms all with fireplaces. Completing the picture is a large and luxurious main bathroom completed with high end fittings where one of the old walls has been left exposed speaking of the home's heritage past. The location could not be better being adjacent to Stoneybatter village, which has fast become a mecca for fashionable shops, cafes, restaurants and gastro bars. The Luas, Heuston station, Phoenix Park, Mater Hospital, Grangegorman, The Four Courts and Kings Inn are only a short walk away, and Dublin city centre is within easy reach. Garden To front can be found a landscaped garden laid out mainly in gravel and a selection of mature shrubs. To the rear is a south facing courtyard garden with a sandstone patio, a raised seated area with storage and pedestrian rear access.
