Description
DNG is very proud to present to the open market 6 Shrewsbury Road, a rare, instantly appealing and most attractive redbrick gem on Dublin's most prestigious residential road. Stepping into timeless elegance at this magnificent five / six-bedroom period residence, which is nestled on one of the most coveted and sought after roads at the heart of Dublin's diplomatic and luxury residential quarters, one will not be disappointed.
Behind the handsome façade, this exquisite home extends to approx. 513 sq. mt. and is laid out over multiple spacious levels exuding style, sophistication and grandeur. The generously proportioned, elegant accommodation comprises: a gracious and spacious entrance hall with a marble open fireplace, a wonderful drawing room with bay window overlooking the front garden which leads into a living room with steps down to a dining room overlooking the rear garden. There is a delightful and very generous kitchen / dining / family room which opens out to the garden with a playroom / children's TV room / fitness room off. The ground floor also has a separate utility room, guest WC, storage room and cloakroom. Upstairs there are 5 generously proportioned bedrooms (two bedrooms with ensuites and the luxurious master suite with an impressive dressing room and large ensuite bathroom), there is also a library with small office off and a large family bathroom on the top floor.
A true highlight of this home is its beautiful, landscaped, sun-drenched west-facing rear garden which was thoughtfully designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A range of mature trees, hedges and shrubs outline this fabulous garden which further benefits from a large, well-manicured lawn and a large patio area which is ideal for al fresco dining or entertaining in the summer sun. The real gem and a rare luxury is the fantastic outdoor heated swimming pool with an accompanying slide, which is surrounded by a locked fence, providing security for small children. There is an orangery to the side and a pool house at the end of the garden offering toilet, shower and changing facilities.
The front garden is also beautifully landscaped, bordered by a colourful selection of mature trees, shrubs and hedging and provides ample off-street parking to the front behind electric, wrought iron gates in a smart cobble lock driveway. There is an inner, gated courtyard to the side which provides extra car parking and access to multiple storage rooms. The outdoor spaces of this home are just as impressive as the interiors.
Shrewsbury Road is undoubtedly one of the capital's finest and most sought-after residential addresses and is within walking distance of all that the bustling villages of Donnybrook and Ballsbridge have to offer in terms of a fine selection of cafes, bars, restaurants and boutique shops. A number of Dublin's premier schools, both primary and secondary, are close by to include St. Michael's College, Blackrock College, Willow Park Junior School, Gonzaga College, St. Andrew's College as well as Muckross Park, The Teresian School, Mount Anville and Alexandra College. UCD, Trinity College and Smurfit Business School are also within comfortable distance. Shrewsbury Road is also with striking distance of many recreational facilities to include the RDS, Aviva Stadium and Sandymount strand. Finally, there are many transport facilities on the doorstep to include DART and multiple bus routes via the Merrion Road or the N11 (QBC).
