49 Raymond Street, Dublin 8, D08T67E

No. 49 Raymond Street is a superb terraced Victorian villa-style home conveniently located just off the South Circular Road, one of central Dublin's most sought-after residential locations and only a short distance from the city centre and St. Stephen's Green. The property is beautifully presented in good decorative order throughout. Instantly, there is a sense of style and grace in its demeanour and at every turn there is an example of the sensitivity applied to the successful retention and maintenance of its period features and design. The home has benefited from a number of recent upgrades, including a refurbished kitchen with replacement skylight, the installation of a solid fuel stove in the dining room, improved ventilation works throughout, and attic insulation. The home is approached from a flight of granite steps that lead to a fine front door with fan light above. Open it, and you are met by an impressive hallway with original timber floorboards, high ceiling and attractive ornate central rose and cornice work. Off the hallway is a bright and airy drawing room to the front of the house complete with original polished timber floorboards, large sash window, a decorative cast iron mantelpiece and open fire. The principal bedroom is at this level also and it too has an ornate cast iron mantelpiece and original polished timber floorboards. The family bathroom is spacious and stylish with its wonderful picture window, cast iron bath, corner shower and attractive, decorative floor tiles. Moving downstairs, steps lead down from the hallway to the garden floor where the hallway at this level is in use as a utility area and includes a large understairs storage area. There are two further bedrooms and an exquisite country style kitchen/ dining room. This open plan room is the heart of the home and boasts a cast iron fireplace with cleverly fitted solid fuel stove inset, the original flagstone floor tiles and it opens to the private rear garden. The rear garden (30' x 20') is a special feature of this city home. It is low maintenance, landscaped and not overlooked to the rear. Superbly located in this fashionable and sought-after district on the doorstep of the heart of the city. All social and essential amenities are close by to include Griffith College and some of the south city centre’s most trendy eateries and coffee houses including Noshington, Scéal, Bastible, Gaillot et Gray and Bibi’s to name but a few. Transport is well catered for making the car a luxury not a necessity, however two resident parking permits are available to request from Dublin City Council.
