Churches Estate Agents are thrilled to present this delightful and deceptively spacious property located in the heart of Glasthule. This villa style late 1800’s home boasts generous proportions and soaring ceilings of approximately c.2.8 meters (over 9 feet) with a substantial private rear garden No. 16 offers a unique opportunity to enjoy village living in one of South Dublin’s most popular coastal locations. With a neighbourhood steeped in culture and history featuring the James Joyce Tower and the Forty Foot this well connected property is not to be missed.
Set behind a neat front garden with decorative gravel and well maintained bedding the property showcases a traditional façade with a central entrance hall and symmetrical front windows. Inside, a long carpeted hallway leads you through a series of generously proportioned rooms all enjoying the benefit of high ceilings and period charm. Originally a three-bedroom home the current layout has reimagined the third front bedroom as a formal dining room adjacent to the elegant sitting room. Both of these front rooms retain their original chimneys and are fitted with a gas fire and an electric fire insert for added comfort and cosiness.Â
Continuing down the hallway you will find two further double bedrooms; one of which is the master bedroom and includes a fully tiled en-suite wet room. All rooms are bright and airy with an emphasis on space and traditional proportions.
To the rear a perfect kitchen with fitted units and an informal dining area looks out to the garden/patio. A narrow staircase off the kitchen leads to an upper-level bathroom and a separate storage room offering additional flexibility. The rear garden is a real standout feature. It is exceptionally large, very private and bordered by mature hedging, it is ideal for outdoor living and offers significant potential for extending the home (subject to planning permission).
The location is second to none. With the boutique shops, artisan cafés and well-loved pubs of Glasthule and Sandycove right on your doorstep lifestyle and convenience are guaranteed. Coastal walks, sea swimming at the iconic Forty Foot and access to local sailing clubs are just moments away. The DART station is a short 5–7 minute stroll ensuring swift access to Dublin City Centre and beyond.
