7 The Mews, Ailesbury Road, Dublin 4, Donnybrook, Dublin 4, D04W1X9

Designed by AOF Architects, this unique and discreet mews property is a substantial and modern home, designed to enhance and extend an original Ailesbury Road mews building. Just minutes from St Vincents Hospital, Sydney Parade Dart, Ballsbridge and Donnybrook, the location could not be more convenient. Facing in to a sunny and private courtyard, light and space have been maximised, design is contemporary and neutral, yet retaining the original granite façade to side and rear. Large format sliding electric gates provide additional convenience and security, as well as adding to the exceptional privacy of this mews dwelling. Briefly comprising of approximately 2,300 sq ft/213 sq m over three floors this mews has excellent open plan living accommodation at ground and first floor, and plans drafted for two further bedroom suites with large cinema room in the existing full basement. A vaulted living area forms the heart of this building with double height space taking in light from front and rear, and large dormered windows above. Bleached timber struts frame the roof and floor to ceiling windows and form the shape of the two upstairs rooms. Custom sliding doors open the entire courtyard façade extending the living from inside to out. Solid timber flooring at ground floor flows through the living area. The main bathroom with separate bath and wet room shower is fully tiled. A cloakroom and utility room is located at the front of the ground floor, currently fitted with storage, but fully plumbed for washer and dryer. Broadband cabling and alarm panel are located here also. With separate staircases, the two upstairs rooms have dormered windows facing south with one of these rooms used as a bedroom and the second operating as a home office.
