'Secret house and garden' says Alanna Gallagher Irish Times
San Michele, 4 Wellington Place, Dublin 4, D04 P2K1
San Michele is an impressive detached four-bedroom family home constructed in 1987 and meticulously maintained by its present owners and boasts a very contemporary interior throughout. San Michele which is well set back off Wellington Place is positioned in an exceptionally convenient location in the heart of Ballsbridge. The property offers well-proportioned accommodation over two levels and extends to approx. 141 sq.m. (1517 sq.ft). It is further enhanced by private off-street car parking behind secure gates for 3 cars comfortably as well as a private southerly facing rear garden with exposed granite walls, ideal for ‘al fresco’ dining. This is a unique opportunity to acquire a family home which is located on this prestigious tree lined road midway between the junction of Wellington Road and Upper Lesson Street, a highly desirable residential address.
The simplicity of the internal layout creates versatile accommodation which has been achieved by clever design where reception areas include the large living room with an expansive dining area all with access to the sunny rear garden, and which work together for both entertaining purposes and everyday living.
The accommodation comprises bright and well-appointed entrance hall, guest wc, a timber ‘art deco’ style kitchen breakfast room situated to the front of the property, and leads to the dining room. There is a separate utility room located off the kitchen which has access to the outside side passage. The well-appointed living room with feature fireplace, also enjoys direct access out to the southerly facing rear garden which benefits from afternoon sunshine and creating a quiet and peaceful oasis in the heart of Dublin 4.
At first floor level there are three good sized double bedrooms with the master bedroom benefiting from ample fitted wardrobes and a large en suite bathroom. There is a smaller fourth bedroom which can also be laid out and used as a study with access to the attic. A good-sized family bathroom and hot press complete the accommodation at this level.
San Michele is a truly delightful family home on one of Dublin’s most central and finest location and offers the new discerning purchaser the potential to extend the property subject to the necessary planning permission should they wish.
