Description
Set on the prestigious St. Thomas Road in Mount Merrion, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a home that has been cherished by the same family for an incredible 60 years. Properties on this side of the road rarely come to market, making this an exceptional offering for those seeking a home in one of South Dublin's most desirable locations.
Beyond its inherent charm, this residence presents an exciting opportunity to create a bespoke family home. While lovingly maintained, the property offers significant scope for modernisation and expansion. One of its standout features is the expansive south-facing rear garden, which is bathed in natural light throughout the day, creating a bright and inviting outdoor space. Extending to approximately 120 feet, the garden offers superb potential for a substantial rear extension while still maintaining a generous outdoor area. The side access provides further possibilities, all subject to planning permission. The fully floored attic area also presents excellent potential for conversion, adding to the remarkable adaptability of this home.
The accommodation retains its original character, with features such as a welcoming entrance porch with slate floor tiles, bay windows, picture rails, and open fireplaces. The layout offers excellent living space, with interconnecting reception rooms, a galley-style kitchen leading to a breakfast room, and three well-proportioned bedrooms on the first floor. The impressive attic space further enhances the future potential of the home.
St. Thomas Road is ideally positioned to enjoy the best of Mount Merrion and beyond. The area is renowned for its strong sense of community, excellent schools both primary and secondary - along with UCD Belfield just a short distance away. Deerpark, with its scenic walking trails and panoramic views, is moments from the doorstep, offering an idyllic green space to enjoy. Blackrock, Stillorgan, and Dundrum are all within easy reach, providing an array of shopping, dining, and leisure facilities. Excellent transport links, including the N11 Quality Bus Corridor and the M50, ensure swift access to the city centre and beyond.
