NO49 Sandymount Road, Dublin 4, is a fine example of why a home in this part of the city continues to be much sought-after. Elegant proportions complemented by period features, plus a long, southwesterly rear garden, all enhance what is a fine family residence with five bedrooms.
There is versatility in the 300sq m (3,225sq ft) of living space too; one of the bedrooms in the garden level of the house offers potential as separate guest accommodation or conversion to a home office.
Entrance is up a flight of stone steps to the original hall door with fanlight.
Leading off the hall is the livingroom, which interconnects, via double doors, to the diningroom. A glazed door leads down to the kitchen/livingroom. Further along is the hall level return with the first of the five en- suite bedrooms.
The garden level, which also has a separate entrance, has a spacious family room, complete with original granite fireplace and limestone floor. A bedroom at this level is currently used as a study. Adjacent is a guest shower room.
The rear hall is filled with natural light courtesy of floorto-ceiling glazing and a door opening onto the rear courtyard. Equally bathed in light is the large kitchen, fully fitted with high-gloss laminate units with beech worktops and integrated appliances. The limestone floor continues through here from the hall to the utility room adjacent. A second patio door opens to the garden.
On the first floor are two bedrooms with luxurious ensuites. A double bedroom and separate bathroom complete the accommodation.
Outside, the gravelled front of the property has parking space for two cars; to the rear, the garden (92ft long) has both a paved patio and lawn.
