Property Description

No. 5 Melrose Avenue is a particularly handsome red-brick period residence distinguished by its elegant double-height bay window façade. Oozing character and charm synonymous with a bygone era, this substantial four-bedroom family home extends to approximately 180 sq.m / 1,925 sq.ft.

A spacious entrance hall with high ceilings and original cornicing creates an impressive first impression and leads to the front reception room and kitchen overlooking the rear garden. The front reception room is a magnificent space of generous proportions, featuring a wide bay window, tall sash windows, high corniced ceilings and original timber flooring.

The traditional-style kitchen occupies the rear reception room and features French doors opening directly to the garden. Fitted with painted solid wood cabinetry, granite worktops, a Villeroy & Boch Belfast-style double sink and an Aga range cooker, the kitchen combines timeless character with everyday practicality.

A cosy TV room is positioned on the return level, together with a generous utility room with fitted storage and a shower room.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms off the main landing, comprising two spacious double bedrooms and a single bedroom. A further flight of stairs leads to the original attic conversion, which incorporates a home office/study, a generous fourth double bedroom with en-suite shower room and an additional attic store room.

The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, enjoying a wide bay window, tall sash windows and the high ceilings characteristic of the period. The family bathroom has been tastefully upgraded and benefits from a practical laundry chute connecting directly to the utility room below.

Outside, the front garden retains its original brick boundary wall, railings and paving, perfectly complementing the charming red-brick streetscape of Melrose Avenue. To the rear, the private south-facing garden enjoys excellent sunshine throughout the day and provides a wonderful setting for outdoor relaxation and entertaining.

Residents of Fairview enjoy an exceptional range of amenities on their doorstep, including an excellent selection of cafés, restaurants, bars, supermarkets and local retailers. Fairview Park and Clontarf's seafront promenade are both within easy reach, providing superb recreational amenities nearby. The area is exceptionally well connected with numerous bus routes, Clontarf Road DART Station, Connolly Station and the LUAS all easily accessible. This highly convenient location is within comfortable walking distance of the city centre, IFSC, East Point Business Park and Dublin's thriving Docklands.
