About this property
Description
***PERIOD FEATURES / REDBRICK SEMI-DETACHED HOME / REAR LANE ACCESS / EXCEPTIONAL SPACIOUS ACCOMMODATION*** KELLY BRADSHAW DALTON are delighted to present No. 15 Achill Road, Drumcondra, Dublin 9 to the market, an exquisite Alexander Strain redbrick residence that seamlessly blends timeless period charm with endless potential. Nestled on one of Drumcondra’s most desirable tree lined streets, this handsome semi-detached home stands proudly as part of a distinguished early 20th-century development by renowned master builder Alexander Strain. Achill Road, one of the characterful “island-named” side streets off Home Farm Road, is celebrated for its elegant suburban architecture and enduring sense of community. From the moment you arrive, this property makes an impression. Original wrought-iron railings and gates frame the home beautifully, while the richly tiled pathway leads you to a welcoming porch and striking bay window, an unmistakable hallmark of the period. Step through the front door and into a light filled entrance hall where stained glass panels cast a warm, colourful glow. High ceilings adorned with intricate ceiling roses, elegant architraves, cornicing and beautifully proportioned rooms create an immediate sense of grace and grandeur, the perfect blank canvas to create your own reality. To the front, the formal living room is a showpiece, a stunning marble fireplace with intricate painted detailing takes centre stage, perfectly framed by the large bay window. This is an inviting, elegant space, ideal for both sophisticated entertaining and relaxed family evenings gathered around the warm glow of the fire. Double doors with stained glass inserts lead seamlessly to the formal dining room, an equally impressive space that invites memorable gatherings and festive celebrations. Here, a second original fireplace enhances the period character, echoing the home’s rich architectural heritage and could be used for whatever your family desires. To the rear, the informal living/breakfast room and kitchen offer an exciting opportunity to reimagine the space for modern living. With creativity and vision, this area could be transformed into a bright, contemporary open plan kitchen and family space, while retaining the home’s historic soul. Outside, the west-facing rear garden is a private sun trap, perfect for al fresco dining, weekend barbecues, or simply enjoying a peaceful moment in the sunshine with the little ones. With the added benefit of rear laneway access and excellent scope for extension (subject to planning), the garden is a natural extension of the living space. Upstairs, the original staircase and banisters lead to a generous return with the first of three spacious bedrooms, alongside a family bathroom, separate W.C. and shower room. The rooms are light-filled and airy, offering ample flexibility to tailor the layout to suit your modern family life. The top floor reveals two further double bedrooms, each brimming with period charm. High ceilings, original doors and large windows create bright, versatile spaces. The master bedroom, with its magnificent proportions, is flooded with natural light and features a beautiful original wrought-iron fireplace, an exceptional focal point. No. 15 Achill Road represents a rare opportunity to acquire a classic Alexander Strain redbrick in a prestigious Drumcondra location. With elegant period detailing, a sunny west-facing garden and unrivalled potential to create your dream home, this property truly captures the best of both old world elegance and modern possibility. Drumcondra Village is right on the doorstep offering the new homeowners a lifestyle to fall in love with! Beyond the front door, Drumcondra offers a vibrant village atmosphere with everything you need at your fingertips. Just a short stroll away, Griffith Park and the National Botanic Gardens provide lush green spaces perfect for morning jogs, Sunday strolls, or leisurely afternoons under the trees. Weekends here are a joy, exploring artisan bakeries, independent cafés and charming local shops that give the village its warm, welcoming character. Food lovers will appreciate the excellent selection of restaurants and coffee spots, while sports enthusiasts will love having Croke Park within walking distance. Connectivity is exceptional.
