JUST OFF BLOOMFIELD Avenue is a home that’s vastly different to the many rows of period homes that make up Dublin city’s south side.
39 Avenue Road is one of only three bespoke homes in a modern development that is sure to become a landmark for design-led living in Dublin 8. Bold, unconventional and brimming with architectural ingenuity, this home is your chance to own a statement home in the heart of Portobello.
From the outside, the distinctive corrugated façade hints at the creativity within. Step through its discreet entrance and you’re immediately drawn into a home where light, space and materiality take centre stage. Spread across split levels, the interiors unfold with a sense of discovery, every corner revealing a new perspective or an unexpected view.
Natural light is a constant here, filtering through floor-to-ceiling glazing, windows and cleverly placed openings. Seven separate terraces extend the living space outdoors, each one catching the sun at different times of day. At the back, a west-facing landscaped garden provides a private haven, perfect for unwinding even with the city just steps away.
Inside, the finish is as refined as it is striking. Terrazzo flooring paired with underfloor heating, slatted timber panelling and seamless bespoke joinery create an atmosphere of quiet sophistication. The kitchen and dining space forms the heart of the home, featuring high-gloss cabinetry, polished concrete worktops and direct terrace access making for an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining.
The rooms are generous and flexible, designed to support modern lifestyles. The main bedroom suite comes complete with its own decked terrace and luxurious en suite bathroom, while two further bedrooms are equally well set up.
A dedicated media room provides the perfect retreat for film enthusiasts, though it could just as easily become a den, gym or creative studio. On the top floor, a home office with wraparound glazing offers inspiring views and direct access to yet another terrace.
The location is just as compelling as the design. Tucked away in a peaceful enclave, 39 Avenue Road enjoys privacy while remaining minutes from Dublin 2, Camden Street and the Grand Canal. Portobello’s vibrant cafés, restaurants and independent shops are on the doorstep and excellent transport links make the city effortlessly accessible.
For those seeking a home that makes an architectural statement without compromising on comfort or liveability, this property is nothing short of ideal.
39 Avenue Road, Portobello, Dublin 8 is on the market for €1,200,000 through Reynolds & Clare.
