Moving up the spiral staircase to the first floor, this is where the property is most impressive. The first room you enter here is the dining room, where there’s two exposed brick walls, exposed hardwood beams, pitched high ceilings, reclaimed pine flooring and Velux windows. With views towards Howth and the Dublin Mountains, this is the ideal space to entertain.

An archway leads from the dining room to the living room, which enjoys many of the same features as the dining room, as well as a standalone stove and a sunny south-easterly aspect. The layout here is spacious and allows itself to multiple uses – a home office, reading area and living room all at once.
