Description

This warm and inviting home offers a rare blend of character, generous proportions, and exceptional potential in one of South Dublin's most established and convenient locations. Set well back from the road in a quiet residential enclave, the property immediately impresses with its bright, well-balanced layout and sense of space. The interiors are filled with natural light, and the flow of the accommodation is both practical and versatile—ideal for a range of lifestyles. The ground floor offers a flexible layout with a welcoming entrance hall, a front reception room that works equally well as a study or additional sitting room, and interconnecting living & dining, room that enjoys lovely views over the rear garden. The kitchen, while functional, would benefit from updating and modernisation. However, it offers superb scope to reconfigure the ground floor—creating a contemporary open-plan space that connects seamlessly to the garden and maximises the exceptional outdoor setting. Upstairs, the house continues to impress with four generous bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, a family bathroom, a separate w/c, and ample storage on the landing. The proportions are excellent, and the rooms are well laid out, making this an easy home to live in and adapt over time. A real highlight of this property is the rear garden. Wonderfully private and backing directly onto Clonkeen Park, it provides a peaceful and mature backdrop that is rarely found in such a convenient setting. Beautifully maintained and framed by mature planting, the garden includes a large lawn and a slate patio—perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. Whether you're looking to enjoy it as is or create a garden room or extension, the space offers endless possibilities. The location is equally impressive—within walking distance of Deansgrange village with its excellent range of shops, cafés, and a public library. Several highly regarded schools are nearby, including Kill O'The Grange & Hollypark National Schools (Boys & Girls), Loreto College Foxrock, and the Lycée Français d'Irlande. Public transport is well served by numerous bus routes, providing easy access to the city centre, UCD, and beyond. This is a home full of charm and potential, with beautifully proportioned rooms, a stunning rear garden, and an unbeatable location. It offers the perfect opportunity to create a bespoke home in a well-established and highly desirable neighbourhood. Early viewing is strongly recommended.
