HAVING A GREEN space close by when you live in the city has huge benefits for overall health and good mood. For a break away from the hustle and bustle instantly, a place like this home on Cliftonville Road might be the answer. Located just off the Botanic Road on the north side of the capital, this beautiful three-bed period home is now on the market for €1,250,000.
Restored and extended in recent years, it has maintained its classic period features while introducing modern upgrades. With an attic conversion serving as a fourth bedroom, this home offers so much space for growing families who want the city on their doorstep.
Stepping inside, you are greeted by a bright entrance hallway with elegant tiled flooring. The front room is home to a bay sash window and this space flows into a second sitting room through interconnecting doors.
Dating back to the early 1900s, this period home has been reimagined to the highest standards, resulting in a home that’s ready to move into right away. Every detail has been considered, from quality flooring and plush new carpets to underfloor heating on the ground floor.
The most stand-out space is the spectacular open plan kitchen with dining and living area. An eye-catching central island, adorned with high-end Dekton worktops, is complemented by skylights that bathe the space in natural light. Thoughtful touches, such as an inviting window seat and lots of storage, make this kitchen a true centrepiece for family life and entertaining.
The upper floors of the home are just as impressive, with three well-sized bedrooms. A family bathroom, fully tiled and featuring both a bath and a separate shower, exudes modern luxury. The attic has been turned into a spacious main bedroom, complete with a sleek en suite bathroom and clever storage solutions, making it a private retreat at the top of the house.
The home also benefits from triple-glazed windows, a brand-new roof, upgraded staircases and anti-slip tiles, ensuring both safety and style. Energy efficiency is a standout feature, with full insulation, a modern thermostat system and a new gas boiler contributing to its impressive BER B2 rating.
To the front, the property retains its original railings, adding to its classic appeal. The garden to the back is designed for little upkeep, featuring artificial grass and a fully wired shed for additional storage. A rare and valuable feature is the gated access, for added convenience.
The location of No 18 is hard to beat. It’s within walking distance of Drumcondra, Phibsborough and everything Glasnevin has to offer. From the popular Botanic Gardens and Griffith Park to Na Fianna GAA Club and iconic Croke Park, the area is sure to keep everyone busy.

Commuters will love the excellent bus routes providing quick access to the city centre, as well as the closeness to the M50 and Dublin Airport.
