Description
O'Donnellan & Joyce Auctioneers are pleased to offer for sale this truly unique & elegant apartment in one of Galway City's most sought after & beautiful residential buildings.
No.8 Mount Eaton is a contemporary style apartment with modern fittings, lofted ceilings, incredible layout & avails of plentiful natural light due to the ideal corner position with a southerly aspect.
Consisting of 80 sq.m, the duplex-style property is arranged downstairs mainly via a large living-kitchen space with incredible vaulted ceilings, modern fittings & elegant sash windows.
Upstairs offers a mezzanine-style bedroom, a testament to the developers thoughtful use of space, whilst the remainder of the accommodation is completed via a sizeable bathroom & substantial storage space.
Situated in the Dominican School on Taylor's Hill, a well-known Galway City landmark, the building was originally completed in September 1901 as a girls boarding school.
The building offers beautiful finishings throughout having been designed in the French mansard-style with an imposing exterior & cast-iron balcony that encompasses the upper floor. Ornate spiral cast-iron downpipes & decorative fixtures add to the quality detailed aesthetic.
In 2008 Mount Eaton House was extensively refurbished by Purcell Construction resulting in unqiue & quality residential apartments.
Each property was completed with modern living standards & amenities whilst still retaining the charming characteristics of the original building that makes the residence so appealing.
Sympathetic to the original features & evidence to attention to detail, the original windows have been restored with timber-sash which are true to the period design, whilst floor levels were raised throughout to avail of the spectacular views.
The communal areas are an example of blending modern upgrades with respect to the the original building, as well as cleverly repurposed features such as steel airing racks from the laundry now tastefully restored to disguise the letterboxes situated in the glass porch entrance hall.
Accessible via secured doors & offering lift access as well as underground parking, Mount Eaton House communal hall features one of the most spectacular restoration highlights in the four-storey cantilever staircase & central atrium. The dark timber panelling & contrasting blue carpet, all lit by natural light via the large roof light, add a luxurious & warm ambience.
Externally, Mount Eaton House features landscaped gardens at the rear with a southern aspect, fountain, winding paths through the planting & is ideally positioned just off Taylor's Hill Road.
Taylor's Hill has long been considered one of Galway City's most sought after residential locations. The tree-lined road is within close proximity to Salthill Village & promenade, as well as offering easy access to Galway City Centre, UCHG & Galway University.
The period-style is rare for Galway City, whilst the modernisation & plentiful space offers second-to-none standards perfect for today's living.
No.8 Mount Eaton is one of the most incredible & unique apartment properties availalable to the market. Viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate the quality & design.
