PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Janet Carroll Estate Agents are delighted to offer 16 Sandycove Avenue East for Sale by Private Treaty. One of South County Dublin's most spectacular marine areas to live in.

Nestled in the very heart of the Sandycove peninsula with the James Joyce tower and Sandycove beach only a short stroll away, 16 Sandycove Avenue East is in turn-key condition and provides a traditional house with modern conveniences. This stunning property is the perfect combination of history, elegance, and modern convenience. With its spacious rooms, original features, and private west facing garden, Number 16 is a home that is sure to impress.

The house is one of the two oldest properties on the road dating back to c.1845. The current owners bought the property in 2001 and are only the second family to take ownership of this house. It was lovingly refurbished by the current owners, including rewiring, replumbing, extensions and modernisation. The resulting BER rating is C2 which is excellent for a property of this period. The property was deeply insulated, excluding the original fireplaces which are part of the beautiful fabric of this era.

16 Sandycove Avenue East boasts many original features from the 19th century, including beautiful fireplaces, decorative cornices, and elegant bay windows. These were either conserved or replaced using original methods such as the Auld Mould Company. From the moment you step inside, you'll be struck by the charm and character of the property.

Sandycove Avenue East is a highly sought after address. The atmosphere on the road is relaxed and very friendly. Don't be surprised if you spot a resident just popping down in their dressing gown for their quick dip in the famous Forty foot!!

Sandycove's quality of life is second to none! The village provides cafes, restaurants, an art gallery, shopping facilities including Caviston's Delicatessen and boutiques. Close by are the sailing clubs, tennis clubs, scuba and dive club, sea-swim club, the Peoples Park with its weekly farmers market, Dun Laoghaire baths and pier, Killiney hill and the heritage town of Dalkey. Many schools are within walking distance such as Castlepark school, The Harold and Rathdown. The dart is a 10-minute walk offering rapid access to Dublin City.

Viewing is highly recommended.
