Description
This attractive cut stone mews property has undergone a complete refurbishment and redesign under the watchful eye of the current owner and has been totally transformed inside and out to create this stunning town residence extending to 202sqm / 2,175sqft approx. An open-plan design maximises the use of space and embraces the boundary-blurring trend that has become an essential feature in today's modern homes.
An entrance door opens to the entrance porch which in turn leads to the kitchen with a range of bespoke cabinets by Arena with a large waterfall island and top of the range Miele appliances. The heating is underfloor with reclaimed Slovenian barn oak flooring from the Historic Flooring Company which continues throughout the ground floor. Opposite the kitchen is a cosy living space with a black AGA creating a focal point in the room. The centre of the house features a double height atrium with staircase leading to the first floor gallery landing. There is a separate guest WC and utility room. To the rear of the property, the spacious sitting / dining room boasts a bespoke steel conservatory designed in conjunction with Lambstongue with fittings to include butterfly brass window mechanisms. This large area also features a contemporary Guillotine stove from Fenton's. French doors lead to the private garden.
Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms, the main bedroom also features a luxurious ensuite shower room and well fitted walk-in wardrobe. A nicely appointed bathroom is located off the gallery landing.
This stylish pied-a-terre is located on arguably one of Dublin 4's premier mews laneways tucked away between Wellington and Waterloo Roads. No. 56 enjoys being within walking distance of Donnybrook, Ballsbridge and Baggot Street and their wide range of coffee shops, eateries, bistros, convenience stores and speciality food shops. Herbert Park with its 32 acres of leisure space is only a stroll away. Fitzwilliam Lawn Tennis Club, David Lloyd Riverview, the Aviva Stadium and RDS Show Grounds are also closeby.
OUTSIDE
To the front of the property, the house is well screened from the lane by a high stone wall with off street car parking on a granite paved forecourt with automatic roller shutter providing additional security along with a pedestrian gate. There is a large timber storage area providing convenient storage for bicycles etc.
To the rear, there is a delightful landscaped garden, designed over thirty years ago and enjoying complete privacy with a selection of mature plants, trees and shrubs complemented by low maintenance artificial grass. Amongst the ten established Japanese maple trees, including paperbark maple, there is mature lilac and wisteria. A feature pear tree is accompanied by plum, apple and crab-apple with spring planting underneath. Accommodation
