Description

Situated on a wonderfully mature, private and secluded site on Ailesbury Road, The Grove is a substantial detached redbrick family home offering bright, well-proportioned accommodation throughout all benefiting from pleasant views over the wonderful gardens and grounds which surround the property. This fine family home is situated on a generous approx. 0.4 Acre (0.16 Ha) site on one of Ireland's most sought after and prestigious residential roads. The Grove is being offered to the market in conjunction with its neighbouring property Killead, 23 Shrewsbury Road. Combined the two properties stand on approximately 1.8acres (0.72Ha) on the corner of Shrewsbury Road and Ailesbury Road, Ireland's 2 most prestigious residential roads. The sale of both properties on the open market is a once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire two adjoining residences on the corner of Shrewsbury and Ailesbury Road, arguably the most exclusive residential real estate in Dublin. Approached via electronically operated timber entrance gates opposite the French Ambassador's Residence, The Grove is set well back from the road providing immense privacy and seclusion. There is ample off-street parking to the front and the entire site offers immense potential. Internally accommodation extends to approximately 250 sqm (2,691 sqft). At ground floor there is generous living accommodation to include a bright and welcoming entrance hall, 4 reception rooms, a well-appointed contemporary kitchen as well as a 5th bedroom. Upstairs there are 4 bedrooms, the primary bedroom with dressing room and ensuite bathroom as well as a family bathroom located on this level also. Whilst The Grove has been exceptionally well maintained and upgraded over the years, the ability to acquire a site for a detached house on such a secluded and well positioned site on Ailesbury Road rarely comes to the market and so it offers a tremendous opportunity for a purchaser to construct a substantial home of true distinction (subject to planning permission) in this most exclusive location. Ailesbury Road is one of the most prestigious residential roads in Ireland. A magnificent tree lined residential road comprising a mix of wonderful Victorian and modern architecture, this is an exceptionally sought after residential road. Popular with families and Embassy’s alike, all of whom appreciate the extreme convenience of this near city location, easily accessible to Dublin city as well as the Dublin coastline a short distance away. Some of Ireland’s finest and most valuable residences adorn this prestigious road behind the grand facades of the magnificent Victorian architecture. The road comprises a blend of styles from Victorian and Edwardian to modern. All fine homes, well set back off Ailesbury Road yet enjoying a wonderful near city location.
