A very exciting opportunity presents itself to obtain a stunning period home within an area of such renowned distinction. KELLY BRADSHAW DALTON are very proud to introduce you to 13 Marguerite Road, Glasnevin, Dublin 9.
Simply beautiful, this elegant, detached Alexander Strain built Edwardian home, comes to the market steeped in rich history and showcases a wonderful exterior and exciting interior synonymous with homes of this era.
Built in the early 1900s, the red-brick property with deep bay windows and granite sills, lintels, and plinth, give the viewer a hint of what lies behind the front door, and what a treat it is.
On arrival to the property, one will note the stain glass front door and original hand-crafted iron mongered gates and railings, which encase a wonderful city style garden.
Crossing the threshold, you will simply be bowled over by the high ceilings with original decorative cornicing and centre rose. Beautiful lighting delicately hangs in the entrance hall which sets the tone throughout and paired with the stunning original stained-glass door, allows colourful natural light to play across floor.
Every room seems to boast what has become known as a typical “Strain detailing” stained glass. Fine feature fireplaces in many rooms and appealing proportions throughout are just some of the many reasons that anyone who views will fall in love with this property
From the entrance hall to your right are two wonderfully grand reception rooms. The first room dominated by a bay window and marble fireplace as the focal point, high ceilings and centre rose with intricate chandelier, resulting a truly fantastic room, that will impress guests while entertaining or to simply enjoy with family and friends. The formal dining room also boasts a stunning marble fireplace.
To the rear is the kitchen, although dated it is fully fitted and primed to allow the lucky new owners to put their own stamp on a space that has enormous potential.
No.13 features the original banisters that ribbon upwards through the staircase and as you arrive on the first-floor return, where you are greeted by the first of four bedrooms, a single room cum home office or den with built in storage and the family bathroom.
To the first floor, there are a further three bedrooms, two double with wonderful original fireplace and a final double.
Outside to the rear south facing garden that will capture the sunshine all day, there is a concrete shed and rear access from the laneway for off street parking if desired.
