TUCKED AWAY OFF Shelbourne Road, Ballsbridge, 54 Lansdowne Lane is an impressively stylish Dublin 4 home.
Spanning 4,000 sq ft and three floors, the unique property maximises the use of space and natural light throughout. With a limestone floor, feature concrete wall and feature timber panelled wall, the standout reception hall gives an accurate feel for the rest of the home.
From here, there’s a 1,000 sq ft open-plan living and dining room with a gas fire, limestone floor, bespoke display shelving and storage presses and dual aspect floor-to-ceiling sliding patio doors.
To the rear of the property is the vibrant Scavolini kitchen, which features a tiled floor, silestone worktops and a central island. There’s also a selection of integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, double oven, larder fridge and three wine coolers. Cheers to that.
Sliding patio doors lead from here to the south-west facing back garden, with a large paved patio area and minimum-maintenance artificial lawn, meaning dining al fresco is a breeze.
Completing the accommodation on the ground floor, there’s a utility room, shower room and study, which could be used as a fourth bedroom.
A feature floating staircase leads to the first floor, where there are three bedrooms. The master bedroom boasts an en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe, while there’s also a family bathroom here.
From the double height landing, there is access to a balcony, while another set of stairs lead to a spacious roof garden with built-in seating, wind-breakers and artificial grass, where you can soak up views of the neighbouring Aviva Stadium – just around the corner.
For days when the weather doesn’t suit sitting outdoors, there’s a home cinema and games room in the basement, complete with a state-of-the-art sound system and a projector. There’s access to a courtyard from here.
The property is accessed via a large sliding timber gate, with a paved courtyard to the front with secure off-street parking for three cars.
In one of south Dublin’s coveted postcodes, residents at Number 54 will have easy access to the vibrant village of Ballsbridge, plus St Stephen’s Green, Merrion Square and the South Docklands.
Services from the nearby Lansdowne Road DART station will bring you directly to the city centre and beyond, or the stroll to Grafton Street will take half an hour if you fancy walking.
