No. 11 David Road, Whitworth Road, Drumcondra, Dublin 9, enjoys an enviable location and finding the perfect property only minutes from the City Centre isn’t the easiest task! That’s why this stunning Edwardian family home, close to the vibrant Phibsborough and Drumcondra Village’s, is sure to catch your eye.

The redbrick property has in the intervening years been upgraded by its previous owners. Built in the early 1900s and presenting rooms of gracious proportions, light filled interiors and extending to approx.30sq m not encompassing the garage, No.11 boasts a wealth of original features including majestic fireplaces, decorative coving, high ceilings and elegant staircase, this home will prove popular with those who have an eye for the finer things in life and a substantial family home.

On arrival, you are pleasantly greeted by a very handsome faade. A city garden with original tiles and enclosed flower bed, invites you to the warm and inviting home. It’s hard to ignore the imposing red brick, with decorative eaves and limestone sills and gives a hint to what awaits you inside. Behind the elegant facade of this stunning well-proportioned and versatile home, are an array of living spaces that are bathed in natural light, that truly ensure a warm and welcoming atmosphere is felt throughout. One will immediately note the impressive high ceilings, excellent layout. To the left, you will find an elegant drawing room with a large window, classic cornicing and ample space to gather with family.

Next to this room is the formal spacious dining room with a warm inviting fireplace and ceiling cornicing, which overlooks the rear garden, a wonderful space to entertain guests for dinner and gather with family and friends.

To the rear of the property is the family room, currently used as the home office cum recreational room. The kitchen is to the rear and although in need of modernising, will allow the lucky new owners to put their own stamp on a fantastic space and create something special. Completing the downstairs accommodation is the guest bathroom.

If you’re worried about room for the kids to play, there is no need! Although the property is situated close to the city, you have a fantastic private rear garden with ample space for the little ones to safely play in, with rear lane access for off street parking in the large and spacious garage. The garage measures 38 Sq. Mts.

Back inside and winding our way up the sweeping staircase, we find the first-floor return. On this level there is the family bathroom. There is also a double bedroom, the first of four bedrooms. Making our way to the first floor, it’s easy to become impressed with the double height ceilings that dominate the space with an abundance of light. On the first floor are two exceptional double bedrooms each with a fireplace and a single bedroom, which could be used as a home office if needed.
