An absolute Gem of a home in a hidden cul-de-sac in the heart of Dublin 8. At approx. 55 Sq metres this isn’t the largest house on the market, but we think it has to be one of the most charming. Fantastic use is made of the available space, and the back garden area is an oasis to die for. The entire property, which dates from the late 1800s, was fully refurbished and updated in 2013, with additional improvements made since, including a new kitchen and gas boiler.
EXPLORE INSIDE
The front door leads directly to the sitting room, which features an electric stove and wall mounted tv point. Wide oak floorboards run through the ground floor and the décor is neutral and understated, lending to a sense of space and flow.
The kitchen is beautifully finished. In addition to the usual cupboards there is a large glass fronted dresser which offers more than enough space to store that tagine from IKEA that you still think you will use some day. A modern, wall-mounted, coal-effect fire, and wiring for a TV, complete the picture. White goods are included in the sale.
The modern, fully-tiled bathroom is situated between the sitting room and kitchen. There’s a good size shower and a storage cupboard below the wash-hand basin.
Upstairs there are two bedrooms, with mirror fronted built in wardrobes in both.
EXPLORE OUTSIDE
The patio doors from the kitchen lead to a truly fantastic private outside space, perfect for entertaining, or for just chilling with a glass of wine on a nice evening. The upper section of the space has mates-around-for-a barbecue written all over it.
There is on street parking outside, but to be honest the convenient location of this property would have to make you think twice about owning a car, especially given the extensive public transport options and the availability of car sharing schemes. Even the ‘big shop’ could be achieved on foot as there’s a major supermarket just a 3 minute walk away.
The Dublin 8 area has been up and coming for a few years now, with ever more trendy coffee shops and artisan foodie spots opening up (check out ‘Bread Man Walking’ – a micro bakery just 5 minutes away).
THE BOTTOM LINE
This property is a real find, in walk-in condition, and in a great location. With both The Coombe and St. James’ Hospital just a short hop from Emerald Square, and the city centre reachable in less than 30 minutes on foot, we anticipate strong interest here.
