Finnegan Menton take great pride in bringing Harmony Cottage to the market – a beautifully designed, and substantial two-storey residence, located on one of Dublin’s most prestigious roads, boasting a West facing rear garden, vehicular rear access, and secure off-street parking among the many notable features. Discreet and unassuming from the street, Harmony Cottage is surely one of the finest and most unique properties in Donnybrook, and one which needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated. Beginning its life as two separate Victorian residences, which have since been merged and redeveloped with expert architectural skill, it has been transformed into a sizeable and stunning home of approx. 329 sq. m. / 3540 sq. ft., which retains the warmth and character of a period property while also achieving a modern Mews feel with chic contemporary design features, light-filled living spaces, and a footprint that perfectly accommodates the flow of modern living. Impeccably finished, meticulously maintained, modernised, and designed with a stylish flair and a keen eye for detail (some of the numerous design features are detailed in the features list below), it combines modern elegance with contemporary convenience, and offers an exceptional living experience. A surprisingly private home, Harmony cottage is accessed from Eglinton Road via a discreet and secure pedestrian gate. From there a natural stone carpet path leads you through a wonderfully welcoming front garden (that changes with each season and exudes a distinctively Eastern feel) through to a spectacular full height glass wall facade with folding doors, that open into a stunning, double-height entrance foyer with uniquely designed chandelier and mezzanine landing with glass balcony. Bathed in natural light, the foyer acts as an inviting area for welcoming guests and displaying art, but should one wish, it could also serve as a reception room complete with biofuel fireplace. Cleverly maintaining the theme from the front garden, the use of muted woodland wallpaper, and a Chateau Flag limestone stone floor (laid as one continuous line throughout the ground floor and through to the outside rear terrace) succeeds in drawing the outdoors in, evoking a sense of tranquillity and serenity that pervades throughout the property. This area then opens into the corridor hallway and the well-proportioned and cleverly configured accommodation that lies beyond, much of which boasts direct access to the sunny rear garden of approx. 50 feet deep, effectively providing a large free-flowing open space ideal for entertaining and hosting large events. The ground floor accommodation comprises: a formal dining room open off the hallway and front foyer, with double doors to the rear terrace and garden, and a serving hatch from the Kitchen; a media / games room with double doors to the rear terrace and garden; an en suite bedroom; a guest W.C. and large cloakroom with elegant mahogany units; a large formal reception room entered via a half flight of stone stairs and tall, double wooden doors, with high ceilings, leather floors, a drop down concealed projector and large screen, which is book ended by two modern plastered gas fireplaces, and has doors to the rear garden; a large library / home-office with the benefit of separate entrance for privacy if required; a large light-filled Kitchen with Bulthaup fitted kitchen island and excellent range of modern units, and which opens into a sunroom / eating area capable of seating up to 20 people, with a large bay window framed by cushioned window seats with storage. A walnut wooden stairway leads to the first floor, where a beautifully crafted mezzanine corridor, lined with glass and floored with wide-plank walnut, overlooks the ground floor, and links the superb master bedroom to the remaining accommodation. The first-floor accommodation comprises: a large master bedroom with high ceilings, walk-in dressing room, two large windows offering views of the back garden and its numerous mature trees, and a large full bathroom en suite, with bath and separate steam shower with seating, panelling, and an electric auto-close skylight activated by rainfall; two more generous double bedrooms with large built-in wardrobes, bookshelves and high level shelves; a large family bathroom with a large shower and two sinks, which incorporates a separate utility room with a stacked washer and dryer and a hatch with a drop down ladder leading to a large attic storage space. The features continue outside, where the large sunken patio of Chateau Flag limestone, acts as a suntrap and offers an ideal setting for al fresco dining or an evening drink in the sun, where an expansive awning allows for ‘all weather” dining and relaxing where the truly peaceful nature of this mature neighbourhood can really be appreciated. 6 short steps lead up to the meticulously maintained and private rear garden which is mainly laid in lawn. Offering great privacy, the garden is well planted with a wonderful selection of mature trees and shrubs, planted to provide sanctuary to bees and birds alike, and is easily maintained. To the side of the property, discreetly tucked away from view, are two sheds providing even more storage space, and an electric car charger. Vehicular access is possible to the garden via Harmony Avenue, and through electronic gates, providing excellent off-street and secure parking for up to three cars. In terms of location Harmony Cottage enjoys the best of both worlds, tucked away from the hustle and bustle while still enjoying every conceivable amenity within close proximity. Donnybrook Village is a stroll away offering a host of some of the city\\\\\\\'s most popular pubs, eateries, and convenience stores including Donnybrook Fair, and is surrounded by many recreational facilities including Elm Park Golf & Sports Club approx. 1.5km away, Donnybrook Lawn and Tennis Club approx. 150m away , Energia Park under 300m away, and Herbert Park approx. 400m away, which feels even closer now by virtue of the Dodder Greenway which aims to deliver high quality walking and cycling facilities along the Dodder River from the sea to the mountains. Ballsbridge Village and Ranelagh Village are also nearby, and the City Centre and Greater Dublin are easily accessible via a host of public transport routes including up to 30 bus routes from Donnybrook Village, and with DART at Sydney Parade Avenue and LUAS Green Line at Beechwood both approx. 2km away. In addition, there are many excellent schools and colleges in the vicinity including St Michael\\\\\\\'s, Gonzaga College, St Mary\\\\\\\'s National School, Muckross Park College, St Conleth\\\\\\\'s, The Teresian\\\\\\\'s, as well as UCD.
