A NEW ADDITION to the leafy suburb of Ballsbridge in Dublin 4, Number 1 Anglesea Road certainly stands out among the other homes and apartments along the River Dodder.
Now on the market for €1.1 million, this detached two bedroom home was designed by Magahy Broderick Associates, an engineering firm based just a short stroll away, on nearby Baggot Street.
The front of the house is a sleek, modern structure that offers privacy from passers-by while still letting ample light in, and there’s a terrace out the back to make the most of those river views.
Step inside and the contemporary design becomes evident in the form of curved walls, atrium ceilings and crisp white tones offset by rich parquet floors.
Floor to ceiling windows that encompass the atrium ceiling on its angle soak up the Dodder views from the kitchen and dining area. Looking outside, you’ll notice you’re on the first floor, not the ground – just another interesting design feature of this property.
The home’s unique layout means that the bedrooms reside on the ground floor, which means they lack the impressive atrium ceiling of the rooms above – although, this a godsend for some shut-eye.
These two nicely-sized rooms aren’t devoid of light, however, thanks to large frameless windows.
From the master bedroom you’ll enjoy access to the patio, as well as an en suite bathroom, but the second bedroom doesn’t lose out. It has a walk-in wardrobe and its own wet room.
Ballsbridge and Donnybrook both flank Anglesea Road, so there’s no shortage of shops, bars and sports facilities.
If you’re more of a sports spectator than a player, the RDS and the Aviva Stadium are pretty much visible from the doorstep. Sandymount Strand and the city centre are both less than a thirty minute stroll away in opposite directions.
The convenient location combined with those beautiful river views would make Number 1 the perfect property for a city commuter who loves their downtime, a downsizer or anyone with an eye for design.
