HEYTESBURY Street, the elegant terrace of early 19thcentury houses running parallel with Camden Street, Dublin 8, is much sought-after by anyone looking for period charm and easy walking distance from every amenity.
No 91, withdrawn at auction last week, and now for sale by private treaty quoting 1.25m, is a fine example of what is so appealing about these single storey over garden level homes, most of which date back to the early 1800s, and nearly all of which have also been restored in style.
The 123sq m (1,350sq ft) of space is laid out in bright, wellproportioned rooms which retain their original fireplaces, period plaster mouldings, and sash windows with working shutters.
To the rear of the house is the typical long garden found at the rear of most period townhouses, and in this instance it combines both a neat lawn and sheltered patio, perfect for a spot of of al fresco entertaining.
Accommodation briefly comprises the entrance hall with double doors opening to the main reception room; the livingroom; a stylishly fitted kitchen, filled with natural light via two sash windows;
lower hall with utility, storage space and door to garden;
three bedrooms . . . two with cast-iron fireplaces and one with access to the front courtyard garden . . . and lastly, the bathroom with antique bath, glass brick wall and tiled shower unit.
The property comes with full planning permission to extend, if desired. Resident permit parking is also provided on the tree-lined street, while within five minutes walk is everything that St Stephen's Green and Grafton Street have to offer.
