For Sale by Private TreatyHunters Estate Agent is thrilled to launch to the market this immaculate three bedroom home in the heart of Dublin 8. Extending to 103sq.m (1,108sq.ft) this fully renovated and restored property is a dream home waiting for a new owner.

The current owner who has an interest in renovating period houses bought the house in 2014 and began a labour of love, fully renovating and restoring the property. Internally the property has lovely proportions and a wonderful quality of light pervades throughout. During the renovation, care was taken to preserve and restore any original features that had survived and throughout careful attention to detail is evident. As part of the extensive works the house was internally insulated on all external walls and the ground floor was replaced and insulation fitted there and in the attic space. The heating system has also been fully replaced with a modern condensing boiler and all this work contributes to the excellent C2 energy rating for a property of this era. To the front, double glazed sash windows have been installed while to the rear ultra-efficient triple glazed units were utilized. The internal decoration has also been thoughtfully created with hard wearing yet sustainable Sisal carpets and attractive decorative and salvaged floor tiles. Set in a superb location in the heart of Dublin 8 viewing of this property is strongly recommended.

Upon entering the property one is welcomed by a generous hall with attractive period staircase rising to the first floor. To the right a door leads into the drawing room with its old cast iron fireplace, Sisal carpet and lovely high ceilings. The drawing room opens to the dining room with another attractive cast iron chimney piece and French doors opening the garden. To the rear there is a large kitchen/breakfast room with built in cream wall and floor units and a quarry tiled floor with a door opening out to the lawn. Rising to the first floor one finds a luxuriously appointed,, family bathroom. There are three generous bedrooms two of which are doubles. There is access to the attic from the pretty first floor landing with an abundance of storage.

Outside to the front, there is a small railed garden surrounded by period wrought iron railings and gate with a mature hedge. To the rear the attractive garden is laid out in a

pleasant combination of grass, gravel and mature planted beds. Further, there are specimen trees and fruiting plants making the garden an idyllic little hideaway. There is also the advantage of pedestrian rear access to Sandford Avenue via a shared lane.

The location of this super home could not be more convenient, being just a short stroll of a wealth of amenities, both social and essential including an abundance of bijoux shops, trendy bars and restaurants in Dublin 8, many schools & colleges including St. Catherine’s (directly opposite), Griffith College, Portobello College, St. Mary’s College in Rathmines, CBS Synge Street and Loreto College St Stephen’s Green.

The discerning purchaser would also be in close proximity to the business district around St. Stephens Green and the IFSC. The area is serviced by excellent public transport with regular bus services and the Luas stops at Charlemont, Harcourt and St. Stephen’s Green all within a short walk.
