This Edwardian family home is set across four storeys and is complete with seven bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a south facing garden and a tennis court.
Poised on one of Dublin’s most prestigious roads, 61 Ailesbury Road is one of the city’s most sought-after addresses. Behind a most attractive facade, the property extends to approximately 508sq.m (5,468 sq. ft) and comprises a wonderful combination of period elegance and contemporary accommodation laid out over four levels.
Upon entering the property, the remarkable finish throughout this home is immediately apparent, with every modern convenience in place as well as a beautifully curated interior. Positioned off the opulent entrance hallway, there are three very fine interconnecting reception rooms.
Located to the front of the property is a drawing room with a bay window, which in turn leads through to the feature oval-shaped sitting room which follows through to a dining room to the rear. All three reception rooms have beautiful fireplaces and features synonymous with the era of construction.
Across the rear of the property, there is an exceptional double-height kitchen/family space with a stunning bespoke kitchen and four sets of attractive French doors leading out to an extensive raised terrace overlooking the garden.
This is a wonderful room and is very much the heart of this warm family home which caters equally well for entertaining on a grand scale or comfortable day-to-day family use. It is flooded with natural light from the south-facing garden beyond.
An attractive staircase leads from the reception hall to the basement level, where there is excellent spacious accommodation to include a gym with a feature wall which can be cleverly removed, allowing it to open through to a family room with doors out to the garden.
At this level, there is also a home office, utility room, a guest bedroom and a shower room.
A magnificent staircase leads from the reception hall to the first floor. The bedrooms are laid out over the next two levels and all are exceptionally generous. The primary suite includes a walk-in dressing room and a wonderfully appointed bathroom.
The remaining five bedrooms are all double rooms and three of the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms. One also has an attractive balcony overlooking the front garden. A family bathroom completes the accommodation and is located on the second floor.
A particular feature of this residence is the south-facing garden extending to approx. 110m. This is a magnificent and exceptionally private space which is divided into three sections: a beautiful raised terrace/dining area accessed via the kitchen which leads down to a verdant manicured lawned garden surrounded by a stone paved border and this in turn leads through to a tennis court to the rear.
The garden is beautifully planted with a selection of trees and hedging. To the front of this stunning residence is a spacious gravelled driveway accessed via electronic gates with ample parking and attractive box hedging.
This residence has been exceptionally well presented and the quality of workmanship is evident throughout. The interior design is simply exquisite and lovingly curated, resulting in a home with a true feeling of warmth and comfort.
The property has been remodelled and extended and now offers the opportunity to literally move in and enjoy not only unique and luxurious accommodation but an enviable south-facing garden.
Ailesbury Road is a wonderful, mature tree-lined road in the heart of Dublin 4, about 4km south of St. Stephen’s Green and Dublin city centre.
