This stunning four-bedroom Rathmines home is on the market now for €2.5 million

Enjoying a prime position on a popular residential road, Number 10 offers substantial, high-potential accommodation totalling 380 sqm / 4090 sqft approx. It occupies a total site of 0.4 acre, retaining its full original garden with mature trees and rear vehicular access via a lane on Grosvenor Place.

Entry is through traditional wrought iron gates to a landscaped front garden with ample gravel off-street parking, and an impressive wide granite staircase leading up to the original hall door. The side carriage house provides a space in which an extension at one or more levels could be added, subject to planning permission.

Generous accommodation is laid out over three levels. The hall level opens to a bright and spacious entrance hall with matching twin arches and original features. An inner hall leads to a kitchen/dining and living room that boast high ceilings, large sash windows, decorative plasterwork, gallery rails, two marble fireplaces and are interconnected with original folding doors.

This floor also has a family bathroom and a living room, complete with chandelier and views of the extensive garden. Upstairs there are four amply proportioned bedrooms, which all have original period fireplaces, and a fifth smaller bedroom/office. The staircase continues to a second family bathroom with a power shower.

The garden level can be accessed from the front by its own door and has ample opportunity to be converted to a three-bed stand-alone rental unit or reinstated with main residence.

An outstanding feature of this home is the truly magnificent garden offering seclusion with a wealth of mature trees and planting and a secured metal storage shed. The sun-drenched rear lawned garden extends to 0.4 acre which is unheard of in such a central location. The garden is well maintained and stocked with colourful shrubbery and hedgerows ensuring enormous privacy and a private oasis. There is also a suntrap deck area accessed off the kitchen which benefits from day long sunshine.

In summary, 10 Grosvenor Road is a rare opportunity for new owners to acquire a well-appointed, versatile Victorian family home with mature gardens, invaluable off-street parking, in a convenient, well-served location. With some modernisation this home has the potential to be one of the finest in Dublin.
