TUCKED AWAY ON Cross Avenue in Dublin’s Blackrock, this beautiful 1930s home is a true gem inside as well as out. It enjoys a beautifully landscaped south-facing garden, spacious interiors and a prime location within walking distance of schools, the DART and Blackrock village. All in all, this property is a super find for anyone house hunting in south Co Dublin.
As you step through the welcoming entrance porch, you’re greeted by a spacious reception hall, complete with an elegant centre rose and lots of storage. The home’s classic charm comes to life in the formal dining room that features rich timber flooring and a beautifully crafted fireplace. Sliding pocket doors lead into the adjacent living room, a warm and inviting space with another striking fireplace and direct access to the south-facing garden that’s guaranteed to get the best of the sun.
A bright and airy living and dining area enjoys floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the garden views. Built-in cabinetry adds practicality while the well-appointed kitchen features high-end appliances and stylish fittings. A separate utility room has more storage and handy access to the adjoining garage.
Upstairs, four large bedrooms offer comfort and flexibility. These spaces are ideal for growing families or anyone who might need a home office. A family bathroom and a separate shower room make busy mornings less so, while the crowning feature of the home is the converted attic. Bathed in natural light from Velux rooflights, this extra living space comes complete with its own en suite bathroom, making it perfect as a private retreat, guest suite or a work-from-home hideaway.
The secluded back garden is well designed with an Indian sandstone patio, mature planting and manicured hedging. This sun-filled outdoor space provides a great setting for relaxation, summer parties, children to play in and pets to roam. The property also benefits from side access and the aforementioned garage. There’s plenty of off-street parking at the front, too.
Cross Avenue is renowned for its proximity to some of the best-known schools and universities, while the DART station and Stillorgan QBC ensure excellent transport links to the city centre.
Blackrock Village, with its boutique shops, two shopping centres, gourmet restaurants and lively bars, is a short stroll away, offering a vibrant lifestyle right on your doorstep. This means that Blackrock Park and the seafront aren’t far away either.
With its spacious interiors, stunning garden and unbeatable location, this impressive home on Cross Avenue is a great find.
