Description
Number 23 Dartmouth Square is an exceptionally fine two-storey over garden level period residence, ideally positioned in this delightful terrace of imposing Victorian properties with enviable and direct views over and access to Dartmouth Square. Once home to former Lord Mayor of Dublin, Mr Alfie Byrne, this charming, light filled family home was tastefully extended and reconfigured by its current owners when they purchased in 2004. This fine property now offers the perfect fusion of contemporary design along with its original period features, creating wonderful, light filled rooms of elegant proportions. Extending to 276 sq.m./2,970 sq.ft., the gracious accommodation is laid out over three levels and comprises at hall floor level elegant interconnecting reception rooms with high corniced ceilings and a fantastic outlook over the square with a door leading to the original butler's pantry, now cleverly used as drinks/cocktail area and guest WC. The kitchen has been relocated to this level on the hall return allowing for seamless entertaining and living space. The garden level is an outstanding feature of this home with a superb main bedroom with en suite shower room, cosy living room and a large garden room, currently used as a home office, with tri-folding doors opening out to the rear garden. There is also convenient under granite steps utility room and a door leading to the private south facing patio to the front of the house off the hallway. The accommodation is completed by the three additional double bedrooms upstairs, a large reception room on the first floor return and a shower room at the top of the house. The impressive interior is perfectly complemented by its beautifully planted, mature and manicured front and rear gardens providing interest throughout the year. To the front, the railed garden boasts decorative box hedging and attractive planting. A granite pathway leads to the front steps as well as the sunny, sunken patio area, a sun-drenched spot perfect for morning coffee. To the rear, the granite walled rear garden is laid out mainly in lawn, framed by mature maple trees and by bamboo to the rear. It is bordered by well-stocked planters and a large, paved patio, the perfect sheltered spot for afternoon and evening dining. Located on the enviable north side one of Dublin's most sought-after squares, adjacent to the Grand Canal, this property is perfectly placed for leisurely access to Leeson Street, Wilton Park, St Stephen's Green, Grafton Street and the village atmosphere of Ranelagh. An exceptional array of amenities lies within easy reach, from artisan cafés and delicatessens to acclaimed restaurants and boutique shops. An outstanding selection of Dublin's most prestigious primary and secondary schools is also close at hand. The Green Line's Charlemont stop is ideally positioned — a leisurely three-minute stroll that places the entire city at one's fingertips, while the house itself remains a serene address.
