No. 1 Claremont Pines is undoubtedly one of Foxrock's finest family homes, standing proud on 0.3 acres approximately of private grounds complete with basement offering another dimension of accommodation which will be of interest to the discerning purchaser. Built just 12 years ago with more than just a nod to the Edwardian style that Foxrock is famous for, this home has perfectly married both old and new architecture to create this exceptional modern family home. The joy of building a “new period” is realised in No.1 Claremont Pines creating a home of poise, elegance and every modern comfort. The beauty of this build is that it combines period elegance with all the efficiencies and conveniences of a modern home. From graceful roof pitches, ceiling heights and sash windows to the beautiful heritage brick. Period detail is replicated and applied with taste and style to include tall ornate skirting boards and decorative architraves. From here the eye is drawn to the detailed ceiling cornicing. This theme which runs throughout the property is a wonderful design feature to making this modern home feel as if it has stood for decades. The highest specification of materials, fittings and fixtures available at the time of construction were used, evident on inspection with the most intricate of detail.
