Description

A very fine two storey over garden level Victorian residence extending to c.2,520sqft/234sqm and offering wonderful proportions with exceptional floor to ceiling height and many of the original period features retained.

The setting is quite idyllic overlooking a picturesque garden square with a wonderful vista of flora and fauna, yet within a ten/fifteen minute walk of St. Stephens Green and Grafton Street.

No. 55 has been beautifully restored by its current owner and the result is a very impressive 5 bed family home. Upon entering you are greeted by a large, light-filled entrance hall with stained glass panelling at the front door, original timber flooring and daffodil coloured walls highlighting the simplicity of the original plasterwork. Into the left are two very fine interconnecting reception rooms with substantial yet elegant proportions that are perfect for entertaining. They boast original marble fireplaces, good ceiling cornicing, centre roses and timber flooring and have large sash windows overlooking Dartmouth Square to front and the garden to rear. A generous study/bedroom 4 lies on hall level return which has a stairwell leading down to the rear garden.
The garden level has a separate entrance into a front facing room with deep red walls which has become the diningroom. A large glazed sliding door leads through to a spacious yet inviting kitchen/ breakfastroom. A glazed sunroom lies adjacent and extends into the Zen-like peace of a pebbled and planted rear garden, c.61ft in length, with a large old cherry blossom tree. Bedroom 5 is also at this level, which is a spacious double room with en-suite shower room. At first floor there are three generous bedrooms and a beautifully appointed bathroom at first level return. The main bedroom is quite a treat, originally two bedrooms, it extends to the width of the house with views of the square and has an en-suite shower room. These bedrooms are further enhanced by a wealth of period features including original cast iron fireplaces, panelled doors and cornicing.

The location is second to none - a quiet leafy setting with a vast choice of amenities all closeby including fashionable shops and restaurants, top schools, the National Concert Hall and Charlemont Luas Line. It is also within easy walking distance of Ballsbridge and Donnybrook.
