Description
Felicity Fox is delighted to present No. 62, an elegant four-bedroom period residence offering a rare opportunity to create an exceptional family home in one of Dublin’s most sought-after locations.
While the property would benefit from modernisation, it has been carefully maintained over the years and retains an abundance of original character and period charm. Many fine architectural features remain intact, including original fireplaces, decorative plasterwork, panelled doors and other authentic details, providing an excellent foundation for a sympathetic restoration.
A bright and welcoming entrance hall, complete with original detailing and useful understairs storage, sets the tone for the accommodation. The generous reception rooms offer superb proportions for both everyday family living and entertaining, with large windows flooding the interiors with natural light. The dining room provides an ideal space for family gatherings, while an additional reception room offers flexibility as a family room, home office or playroom. To the rear of the house are the breakfast room, featuring an attractive original fireplace, and the kitchen, which enjoys direct access to the private rear garden.
The bedroom accommodation is arranged over the upper two floors and comprises four generously proportioned bedrooms. Several rooms retain original fireplaces further enhancing the home’s period appeal. The versatile layout lends itself perfectly to modern family living while also providing excellent guest accommodation or workspace options. Other properties on the road have been able to convert their attics so that may also be an option. (subject to the necessary permissions)
Outside, the private rear garden benefits from access to a pedestrian laneway, while the railed front garden creates an attractive approach to the property. On-street residents’ disc parking is available to the front.
Requiring updating throughout, No. 62 presents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished period home of considerable character and potential. With sensitive refurbishment, it offers the chance to create a truly outstanding bespoke family residence in an established and highly desirable setting.
