Planning Permission Granted The existing property, which is a protected structure requiring redevelopment, benefits from planning permission granted by Dublin City Council under Planning Reference WEB1375/26, providing for the extensive refurbishment, restoration and extension of the existing building to deliver a beautifully designed, contemporary four-bedroom mews residence. The proposed development has been thoughtfully designed to combine the character and architectural heritage of the original building with the comfort, space and functionality expected of a modern luxury home. The approved design incorporates generous open-plan living accommodation, four bedrooms, three bathrooms including two en suites, a private rear garden and an integral garage. Proposed Accommodation The plans designed by FHA Architecture & Design provide for approximately 217.44 sq.m (2,340 sq.ft) of total accommodation, inclusive of an integral garage extending to approximately 21 sq.m (226 sq.ft). The ground floor is designed around an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living area extending to approximately 66 sq.m. This exceptional space opens directly onto a substantial private rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.

At first-floor level, the proposed accommodation comprises four generously proportioned bedrooms, including an impressive principal bedroom suite of approximately 34 sq.m, together with a second substantial bedroom of approximately 20.5 sq.m. Two bedrooms benefit from en-suite facilities, with a further family bathroom serving the remaining accommodation. The proposed design makes excellent use of natural light, contemporary glazing and carefully considered architectural detailing to create bright, spacious interiors. Private Outdoor Space A particularly attractive feature is the substantial private rear garden. This valuable outdoor space which faces south-west offers exceptional potential for landscaped gardens, outdoor dining and entertaining, providing a sunny, peaceful retreat in the heart of Dublin 2. The overall site extends to approximately 205.4 sq.m (2,211 sq.ft). Architectural Design The proposed refurbishment sensitively balances the restoration of the original building with contemporary architectural additions. The plans incorporate the restoration of traditional masonry and original architectural features, alongside high-quality brick finishes, extensive contemporary glazing, natural slate roofing and carefully designed extensions. The result is an exciting opportunity to create a distinctive luxury home that respects the character of its historic surroundings while offering the benefits of modern residential design.
