Dublin 6: €1.35A refurbished three-bedroom house in Ranelagh ticks all the boxes for urbanites who want space, style and ease of access to the city.
Number 34 Chelmsford Road is a classic Dublin 6 redbrick halfway between trendy Ranelagh village and upmarket Donnybrook.
It's for sale through Sherry FitzGerald with an asking price of €1.35 million.
The Victorian era house has been given a swish makeover and while the decor may not be to all tastes, it certainly is big on colour and glamour thanks to the efforts of interior designer Ger Smyth. The finish is luxurious and sophisticated with designer wallpaper, porcelain tiled floors and customised radiator cabinets throughout.
The 167sq m (1,800sq ft) house has three bedrooms, with two reception rooms, a large kitchen, back garden with rear access and on-street disc parking. The formal diningroom has a black, white and biscuit colour palette and features a Chesney limestone fireplace, Ulf Moritz beaded wallpaper and original polished wooden floors.
The family room again features a Chesney fireplace and designer crushed wallpaper.
Roof windows flood the crisp glossy kitchen/diningroom with light. There's a luxurious family bathroom on the hall floor return with a free-standing bath and his-and-hers counter-top sinks on a walnut unit.
The three bedrooms are all doubles. The main black-and-lime bedroom has a droplet-style chandelier and a walk-in wardrobe. The back garden has a three-tiered Indian sandstone patio. There is access from the garden to a lane leading onto Chelmsford Avenue.
