Property Description

Sherry FitzGerald is delighted to present No. 15 Sycamore Road to the market, an impressive double-fronted 1930s residence built by the renowned Kenny Builders, celebrated for their distinctive architectural style and quality craftsmanship. Occupying a prominent position on one of Mount Merrion’s most sought-after roads, this elegant family home combines timeless character with exceptional potential, offering spacious accommodation in a highly convenient and desirable setting. Few homes possess such an appealing combination of generous living space, superb gardens and scope for future enhancement. Extending to approximately 42 metres in length, the sun-drenched west-facing rear garden provides an outstanding opportunity to further extend the already substantial accommodation, subject to the necessary planning permissions. The former garage has already been converted into a versatile living space with an adjoining shower room, making it ideal as an additional reception room, home office or ground-floor bedroom. The handsome exterior is immediately recognisable by its attractive façade with bay windows and signature porthole window, features synonymous with the Kenny-built homes of this era. Upon entering, the welcoming entrance hall immediately conveys a wonderful sense of light and space, complemented by the home’s impressive ceiling heights.

The dining room enjoys a charming bay window overlooking the front garden, while the living room to the rear features a large picture window and patio doors opening directly onto the sunny west-facing garden.
