A noble quest for Great House revival aficionados! Situated at the city end of the prestigious Blackrock Road sits a unique opportunity to acquire a piece of history and restore it to its former grandeur. Originally built in the 1840s, with a two-storey annexe added c. 1896, this large derelict period property awaits a passionate owner ready to breathe new life into its walls. With its spacious layout and architectural significance, there's ample room to customize and create a home that reflects your personal style and preferences.
This previously stunning property extends to 420 sqm over three floors and is situated on a site extending to 0.2 acres approx. The current floorplan is immense so there is ample room within the original footprint to satisfy a large scale and impressive refurbishment. Even so the vendors also considered how a 21st century extension would further enhance the 19th century allure.
Their suggested renovation strategy, which would be subject to planning permission by the new owners, includes the removal of later additions to clarify the house’s original form and the addition of a single storey extension that enhances the house and defines a formal courtyard space.
The property is listed on the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage but is not protected. Their appraisal is; 'Particularly intact early 19th century semi-detached house, retaining significant original fabric, although form and scale have been modified by building of annex.'
The property qualifies for the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant of up to €70,000.
Please note this property is derelict and access will not be permitted under any circumstances.
