Property Description

Historic Clontarf Home on Quarter-Acre Site Presents Rare Opportunity.

Few properties to come to the Clontarf market in recent years can rival the scale, history and potential offered by Derry Ronane, No. 71 Howth Road. Brought to the market by Hamill Estate Agents, this impressive detached residence occupies an exceptional site of approximately 0.25 acres and extends to approximately 150 sq.m, offering superb opportunity to acquire a substantial family home in one of Dublin's most sought-after coastal suburbs.

Dating from 1916, Derry Ronane is one of just eight distinctive detached homes constructed along this prestigious stretch of the Howth Road. The picturesque double-fronted residence retains all the charm and character associated with its era and is enveloped by beautifully maintained mature gardens to both the front and rear.

Set back discreetly from the road, the property enjoys excellent privacy while also providing generous gated off-street parking. A prized south-facing aspect ensures the house is bathed in natural light throughout the day, enhancing the sense of warmth and tranquillity that defines this unique home.
Inside, the accommodation offers enormous scope for renovation, refurbishment or extension, subject to planning permission, providing prospective purchasers with the opportunity to create a truly exceptional forever home.

A welcoming entrance hall sets the tone, leading to a living room on one side and a family room on the other. Also located off the hallway are a study and guest cloakroom, before opening into a spacious kitchen. A delightful sunroom enjoys the full benefit of the property's sunny orientation and provides an ideal setting in which to relax while overlooking the gardens.

Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with ensuite facilities, a further double bedroom and two additional bedrooms, together with a family bathroom. From this level, views over the magnificent gardens provide a picturesque backdrop to everyday living.

The grounds are undoubtedly one of the property's defining features. To the front, a beautifully landscaped garden with mature planting and manicured lawns creates an elegant approach to the house. Equally impressive, the exceptionally private rear garden has been thoughtfully designed for year-round enjoyment. Access is available from both sides of the residence, with one side offering vehicular access to a substantial detached garage.

Location is another major attraction. Positioned within easy reach of Clontarf Road DART Station and served by numerous Dublin Bus routes along the Howth Road, the property enjoys excellent connectivity to the city centre and beyond. Residents are spoiled for choice with an abundance of local amenities nearby, including restaurants, cafés, sports clubs and recreational facilities, while Clontarf Promenade and St Anne's Park are just moments away.

Steeped in Clontarf's rich history and offering immense potential for its next custodians, Derry Ronane represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure a landmark family home and guide it into its next chapter.
