Description

DNG is very proud to introduce Rathlin, Killarney Road, Bray to the open market. Built in the early 1900's, and recently refurbished to a very high standard, Rathlin sits on approx. 0.5 acre of quite magnificent gardens. A very handsome Edwardian family home, it oozes original charm and character while offering very spacious and bright living accommodation of c.294sq.m /3,165sq. ft, which is perfect for a modern family's lifestyle. Rathlin is part of a row of four substantial Edwardian detached houses on good-sized grounds built within a few years of each other at the town end of the Killarney Road. Beyond the distinctive red brick façade lies a warm and inviting home, which has undergone a complete and very sympathetic refurbishment in recent years. This 'back to bare walls' restoration includes a full rewire and replumb, beautiful double glazed sash windows, restored original floors plus new engineered herringbone style flooring with underfloor heating, original and impressive mosaic tiled entrance hall, a relocated and individually designed kitchen, spacious modern bathrooms, a new heating system and a delightful décor style throughout. The private and mature gardens with the much sought after southerly aspect, wrap comfortingly around the house and bask in sunshine from early morning to late evening. Set behind electric gates and original granite walls, one cannot help but forget the hustle and bustle of the thriving main street only metres away, with its trendy eateries and shopping outlets and the newly opened Bray Central Shopping Centre with Penneys and Sports Direct, along with a soon to be opened Stella Cinema, regular bus routes and easy proximity to the DART. Thankfully, the property retains many of its original period features including beautiful ornate marble fireplaces, original ceiling coving and centre roses, high c.11ft ceilings, original timber doors & door handles, beautiful mosaic tiled entrance hall, original granite window cills and many more. The elegant reception rooms are all of a generous proportion, as are all the bedrooms. The adaptable living space is full of natural light and there would be further potential to extend should the new owners wish, subject to p.p.
