***PERIOD PROPERTY/FULL RED BRICK/ REAR LANE ACCESS (DOUBLE GATES)/ORIGINAL FEATURES/SOUTH FACING/MUCH SOUGHT AFTER LOCATION/FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY***
A very exciting opportunity presents itself to obtain a stunning period home (c.1905), within an area of such renowned distinction. KELLY BRADSHAW DALTON are very proud to introduce you to 2 Avondale Road, Phibsborough, Dublin 7.
Simply beautiful, this elegant Edwardian home comes to the market steeped in rich history and showcases a wonderful exterior and exciting interior synonymous with homes of this era.
One of only three on this small terrace, the decorative red brick, limestone sills, original iron mongered gates, tiling and wonderful front city garden give the viewer a hint of what lies behind the front door, and what a treat it is!
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 natural light bounces through the stain glass front door. Each of the original rooms to the house boasts what has become known as typical Edwardian detailing. Feature fireplaces in many rooms and appealing proportions throughout, are just some of the many reasons that anyone who views it will fall in love with this home.
From the entrance hall to your right are two fantastic reception rooms. The first room is dominated by a large window and stunning decorative fireplace as the focal point, high ceilings and centre rose, resulting in a truly lovely room, that will impress guests while entertaining or to simply enjoy with family and friends. The formal dining room also boasts a stunning fireplace.
To the rear is the kitchen, fully fitted and primed to allow the lucky new owners to put their own stamp on a space that has enormous potential. The kitchen also features a fully fitted laundry room with sink and storage and access to the rear garden.
The rear garden is a suntrap for the morning sunshine and a great spot to dine and entertain al fresco in the summer months, while hosting family and friends. St Peters Steeple creates a backdrop to the garden, simply beautiful. A fantastic feature to the rear garden is the rear lane access and the double wooden gates, that allow you to bring bins, bikes or even your car through, giving you the benefits of a semi-detached home and will prove a real winner with families.
Completing the downstairs accommodation is the guest W.C
No.2 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 family bathroom. Fully tiled, it boasts a bath, overhead shower, hand basin and W.C.
To the first floor, we discover three bedrooms, two double with wonderful original fireplace and a final single/small double. Each room is simply filled with character from a bygone era and it truly will excite those with an eye for the treasures of the past.
This fine residence is superbly located, just a two minute walk to the Phibsboro LUAS station, less than ten minutes to the Mater Hospital and fifteen minutes walk to the City Centre. Avondale Road is surrounded by a host of green spaces, Great Western Square and Blessington Street Basin and Grangegorman Campus and a fifteen-minute walk to The Phoenix Park.
There are many excellent schools and education facilities in the area. Amenities in the immediate area include the sports grounds in Mt. Bernard Park, Blessington Basin and the Royal Canal Walk. Both the Botanic Gardens and the Phoenix Park are within walking distance. There are plenty of shops, restaurants and cafes in the bustling Phibsborough Village. The City Centre is within walking distance and served by a great public transport system including numerous bus routes and the future Broadstone-DIT stop of the Luas Cross City line, whilst Dublin Airport is only a short drive away. This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a wonderful blank canvas in an idyllic city centre setting.
