THE CHARMING STREETS of Dublin 4 are known for their lines of picturesque properties. And Ailesbury Wood certainly fits the bill – even if it is one of the newest in comparison to the period houses we often associate with the area.

Completed by Davy Hickey in 2005, Ailesbury Wood is made up of 16 houses comprising four blocks of four terraced homes. 

These homes have kerb appeal with their red brick facades accentuated by granite sills and porticos, accompanied by elegantly landscaped fronts.

The luxury starts as soon as you step inside the hallway. Filled with natural light and with a polished stone floor, it flows seamlessly into the main living areas and then to the kitchen. The front reception room features a sandstone fireplace with a gas fire and a large window that looks over the landscaped front garden.

This home is in excellent condition as it is, so the next owner won’t be in any rush to get renovating. The underfloor heating is also a huge plus.

This room leads to the kitchen that is home to high and low-level white fitted units, a solid stone countertop and comes complete with integrated appliances. The adjacent dining area, with its glazed ceiling and French doors opening onto the garden, also bathes in natural light.
