Property Description

Looking for a quiet spot in Dublin's cool and quirky Portobello that has access to lovely restaurants, great coffee shops, art galleries and shops? Look no further. This house for rent has been renovated in the last five years -- with new wiring, plumbing, and double-glazed, energy-efficient windows. Freshly painted, it sits in a unique little terrace of period houses in a courtyard down a flight of steps off Portobello Harbour, meaning that the sounds of the city are muted, an effect enhanced by its stone walls and high ceilings.

Leading in from the generous hallway with its striking mirrored wall, in the open-plan kitchen, amenities include a dishwasher, oven and a washing-machine/drier. The well apportioned sitting-room has a sofa, two large fitted bookcases and a stove. There is on-demand hot water, with a combi-boiler installed. Upstairs there is a large bedroom, bathroom (with bath and shower), and a double bedroom/home office with ample space for desks and storage. A doorway in the kitchen leads to a backyard with space for a morning coffee surrounded by pretty stone walls. The house dates from the 1880s and some traces of its heritage remain: there are two architraves upstairs and downstairs, an unusual staircase with brass detail, and a stained glass window.

The house is close to the heart of the city, while retaining a sense of privacy. Rathmines is a five-minute walk away, and Stephen's Green/Grafton St is a fifteen-minute walk from the house. The Luas Green line is a 15-minute walk away and Dublin bikes are a four-minute walk from the door. One street away is the Grand Canal, where you'll regularly see swans gliding and people strolling. On-street parking permits are available from Dublin City Council and Wifi can be organised through any of the service providers.
