TAKE A WALK around the leafy suburbs of Ranelagh, Rathgar and Terenure and you’ll notice that these areas are awash with beautiful Victorian homes. Rows of grand red bricks, with granite steps leading to the entrances, make up many of the tree-lined streets.

In the heart of Ranelagh, 5 Leeson Park is a property that blends the timeless elegance of the Victorian era with modern comforts, effortlessly. This transformed, extended and refurbished residence is now on the market for €3,250,000, offering five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a total living space of a whopping 342 m²

Aside from its obvious kerb appeal, when you wander through the front door you’re met with an impressive hallway. It surely sets the tone for the rest of the home with its polished wooden floor, archway and a range of well-maintained period details.

Each of the reception rooms at this level are flooded with light thanks to tall sash windows. White marble fireplaces with cast-iron open fires and wide plank wooden floors link these two rooms when it comes to style. Double doors open from one room to the other, making this an ideal open space for entertaining.

The kitchen, by German company Poggenpohl, is minimalist and hardworking. White gloss cabinets offset by grey quartz worktops and an island ensure plenty of workspace, storage and a wonderful flow.

This spacious, open-plan living space benefits from skylights that fill the dining area in natural light while the family room has sliding patio doors that provide access to the landscaped back garden. A fully fitted utility room and a convenient toilet completes this level.

The back bedrooms in this house all have views over the long and secluded garden below that stretches 120 feet. The outdoor space is in great nick providing an excellent jumping off point for anyone with green fingers.

With Ranelagh village just down the road, Leeson Park close to great cafés, restaurants and bars, plus plenty of parks and access to the rest of Dublin via bus and Luas.

No. 5′s next owner will have their pick of primary and secondary schools in the area, while the city centre is a mere ten minute walk away. Leeson Park might just be the Dublin dream of period style, quiet village life and city living. 

5 Leeson Park, Dublin 6 is on the market for €3,250,000 through Turley Property Advisors.

    I fully support equal pay if the expertise is on a par but why should patients pay they have paid with their lives in cases due to delayed care in getting a diagnosis during the past two years of covid . Bloods tell a lot and tomorrow patients suffer yet again . Really not professional and using the sick as bargaining tools . Nurses and front line staff didn’t strike during covid when they were over worked and underpaid and literally risked their lives pre vaccine and pre ffp2 masks . This is not the time as the system tries to catch up in treating the lately diagnosed . I loose sympathy when patients who the lab staff get paid to care for don’t care . Strike is not acceptable in a pandemic catch up phase

    @Mary O Dwyer: Listen darling the expertise is not only on a par but the medical scientists do most of the work,they have been getting hammered for the last 20 years ,work load,pay, everything.They kept all the PCR testing going during covid when everyone relied on them and I mean everyone in all our society.You should not be making comments you are clueless about so if u get time try and make your way back to planet earth!!

    @Mary O Dwyer: when would a good time be? When the service is destroyed altogether by the loss of more staff that are not been treated equally in the workplace? If all other channels have been exhausted what other choice is there? What happened when penny pinching of this vital service a decision was made to send cervical services to America ? Penny pinching here again and not respecting this highly educated workforce will lead to huge quality issues down the line with more highly trained staff leaving. Enhancing and supporting a dedicated workforce is what a forward thinking government should be doing. The area of advanced medical diagnostics which Ireland has ambitions to be a leader in needs to be invested in and highly trained scientist at a minimum should be treated equally

    @Mary O Dwyer: When do you suggest we take action? When the service collapses?
    We purposely didn’t take action during the height of the pandemic due to the affect it would’ve had on the country.
