The current owners have had the property in the family for the past 90 years and you can truly feel the warm and inviting welcome once you enter. On arrival to the quiet, mature street, one will note the wonderful redbrick façade and original iron mongered gates that frame the city garden with potted plants. Crossing the threshold, we step into a home with whispers of the past dotted throughout. The entrance hallway is an impressive welcome, with high ceilings that draw your attention up to the cornicing and centre rose, a real treat in any period property. To the left of the hallway is the impressive formal living room with a beautiful original feature fireplace, coving, hard wooden floors, large window and interconnecting doors to the formal dining room. This room is splendid and is sure to be a lovely spot for the family to gather around the fire on those colder winter evenings, soaking up the atmosphere of your new surroundings. The dining room is equally impressive, again featuring a wonderful fireplace, high ceilings, original wood floors and cornicing. To entertain in this room would be a delight for guests. To the rear is the kitchen and although in need of modernising, it allows the new owners to design and create a space that works for you, which will surely marry the old with the new seamlessly. There is access to the rear garden / courtyard, which with little imagination could become the perfect spot for summer gatherings with friends, or simply sitting to enjoy your morning coffee. Not overlooked, the garden is an oasis, where you could almost forget how close the property is to both Drumcondra and Phibsborough villages. Completing the downstairs accommodation is the bathroom.
