Description
We are delighted to present No. 5 O'Carolan Road to the market. Beautifully refurbished in 2023, this exceptional two-bedroom mid-terraced home is situated in one of the most sought-after residential pockets of Dublin 8. Lovingly maintained by its current owners, the property combines contemporary finishes with attractive original features and benefits from a strong B3 energy rating. This turnkey property is ready to welcome its next chapter. Upon entering, a welcoming hallway with stylish herringbone laminate flooring and convenient under- stairs storage sets the tone for the home. The elegant herringbone flooring continues into a bright and spacious open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, providing the perfect setting for everyday living and entertaining. To the front, a cosy seating and TV area creates an inviting space in which to relax around the solid-fuel stove. The contemporary kitchen runs along one wall and includes fitted cabinetry, an induction hob, double oven and integrated dishwasher. This leaves a generous dining area overlooking the rear courtyard. Completing the ground floor to the rear, the original galley kitchen now accommodates a well-appointed utility and pantry with vaulted ceiling, roof light and excellent storage, leading to a stylish ground-floor WC. Upstairs are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both retaining original cast-iron fireplaces. The principal bedroom also features original timber flooring, built-in wardrobes and fitted shelving. Completing the first floor is a beautifully finished main bathroom with a large glazed shower cubicle, heated towel rail and tiled flooring. Outside, the private rear courtyard garden has been thoughtfully designed for low-maintenance use, with porcelain paving, contemporary slatted timber panelling and a raised planter with a mature olive tree. To the front is a railed city garden with secure bicycle storage, with on-street parking available. The location is both peaceful and exceptionally convenient. Set within the peaceful and historic Tenters neighbourhood, O’Carolan Road combines a strong sense of community just off the South Circular Road. The area is exceptionally well served, with Marlowe & Co., The Fumbally, Weaver Park and Oscar Square nearby, alongside numerous shops, schools, cafés and restaurants. St Stephen’s Green and Christchurch are just a 15–20 minute stroll away, served by Dublin Bus and with both Luas lines also within easy reach. Hallway 3.25m * 1.24m Laminate herring bone wood floor.
