260 Merrion Road, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4, D04X5C6

DNG is delighted to present 260 Merrion Road, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4, an elegant villa-style period residence, within the embassy belt, that has been beautifully refurbished and meticulously maintained to an excellent standard throughout. Retaining many of its original period features while incorporating the comforts of modern living, this impressive property offers a unique opportunity for both owner-occupiers and investors. The property benefits from full planning permission granted in September 2022 for a two-storey extension and the reinstatement of residential use, offering exciting potential for future development. Further enhancements include recently installed double-glazed timber sash windows complete with working shutters, a new heating system and fully rewired electrical installation throughout. The accommodation is bright, spacious and thoughtfully arranged, with generous proportions, high ceilings and an abundance of natural light. The living room enjoys a dual aspect, further enhancing the sense of space and light throughout. At hall level, an impressive entrance hall leads to two bright reception rooms, a guest w.c. and Bedroom 1. The elegant living room is a particular highlight, featuring stone fireplace that creates a warm and inviting focal point. A large picture window floods the interior with natural light, while the generous ceiling heights and period detailing add to the property's timeless appeal. The hall return and staircase leading to the garden level are complemented by a large window overlooking the long rear garden. The garden level provides two spacious double bedrooms, each with an en-suite shower room, together with an inner hall, kitchen, guest w.c and a generously proportioned family bathroom featuring both a separate bath and shower. This level also benefits from access to both the front and rear gardens, offering excellent flexibility and convenience. Externally, the property is equally appealing. To the front, a charming enclosed railed garden is approached via granite steps leading to the main hall-level entrance, with a separate entrance at garden level.
