Description
An exceptionally attractive red brick late Victorian family home, built in 1875, enjoying an elevated position along this prestigious road which connects Ardeevin Road with Dalkey Avenue.
This is an extremely impressive property offering superbly presented, generously proportioned bright and airy accommodation upgraded in recent years, retaining many of the original features of its era, and further enhanced with spectacular views over the Dalkey rooftops, Dun Laoghaire Harbour and across Dublin Bay to Howth.
Standing on manicured gardens and grounds of approximately 0.16HA (0.4 acre), Arranmore is approached by a long tarmacadam driveway bordered by a sweeping lawned garden and well-defined granite wall boundaries benefitting from a much sought after south-westerly orientated two-tiered rear garden laid out mainly in lawn. A beautiful inviting wide entrance porch opens through to the reception hall by way of a glass panelled door with a stained glass fanlight over. The entrance hall connects the drawing room with the dining room and ultimately through to the family room/study. In the dining room there is a hatch opening through to the kitchen with a shower room and utility/plant room completing the accommodation at the ground floor level. Up the very fine staircase there are four double bedrooms, the master being en suite, a family bathroom, sunroom, an attic room and bathroom completing the accommodation on the upper floors. The views from the front bedrooms in particular are breathtaking. There is a garage to the side with a store/bedroom and above this is an own hall door self-contained unit which is laid out as an open plan living/dining/kitchen/bedroom area and a shower room. A side passage with granite steps connects the front to the rear. The property offers vast potential to extend to the side and into the rear garden in order to increase the overall accommodation if so desired, subject to planning permission.
To the front granite block pillared vehicular cast iron gates open onto a large tarmacadam drive providing off street parking for numerous cars bordered by a sweeping lawned garden and well-defined granite wall boundaries. There is a garage of 3.75m x 3.35m (12'4" x 11') to the side with folding doors opening to the front and a storeroom adjacent of 3m x 3.2m (9'10" x 10'6"). Above the garage is an own hall door self-contained unit of approximately 23sq.m. (248sq.m.ft) with a kitchen area and shower room ideal for use as further ancillary accommodation or a home office. The overall site extends to approximately 0.16AH (0.4 acre) and the stunning two-tiered south westerly facing rear garden of approximately 32m (105ft) is laid out mainly in lawn abundant with a variety of flowers and shrubs with granite steps connecting to the front.
