Tour this luxurious period-style property on sale in picturesque Clontarf for €1,250,000
Modern sophistication meets classic elegance at 150 Howth Road.
ON FIRST LOOK, this row of elegant homes in Clontarf looks like it dates to centuries past. A collection of Victorian-style houses with large sash windows and stepped entrances, they, in fact, date to circa 2001.
House 3 or 150 Howth Road is now on the market for €1,250,000. For anyone dreaming of owning something akin to a period property, but without the need to retrofit, this could do nicely.
Homes with real kerb appeal, as you approach them, you’ll initially be struck by their elegant stone facades. But they aren’t all style and no substance. 150 Howth Road has a healthy B2 BER, which is a big plus for this 200 m² home.
Stepping inside, you’re greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The charm of an older home blends seamlessly with a host of contemporary touches.
One of the stand-out features has to be the bespoke handmade kitchen. Crafted by Mooneys of Drumcondra, it’s bound to be a dream workspace for any keen cook. On the same floor, down the hall, there’s a spacious family room that offers a cosy retreat for relaxation.
From the family room, French doors lead to the newly landscaped rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces. A handy guest toilet completes this garden level.
The home is spread over three floors and there’s no shortage of social areas to entertain in. The front door level is home to a dining room, a drawing room and a study that could easily be converted into a bedroom.
Upstairs, the main bedroom suite exudes luxury, and comes complete with fitted wardrobes and a modern en suite bathroom. Two more bedrooms, both with their own bathrooms too, provide plenty of space for family and guests.
In terms of location, Howth Road enjoys easy access to an array of local amenities, including shops and restaurants. The nearby Clontarf promenade offers scenic sea walks and cycle tracks, while St Anne’s Park provides a lush green oasis for nature lovers. With excellent transport links, including the DART and bus services, and proximity to renowned schools and sporting clubs, Clontarf epitomises modern urban living.
The home is a lesson in exquisite craftsmanship, bespoke finishes and an attention to detail. It promises a lifestyle of comfort, style and elegance with the extra handiness of being close to the city centre.
