The Coach House, Waterloo Collection , Ballsbridge Waterloo Road , Dublin 4

There is only one Coach House at Waterloo The original estate Coach House has been transformed into an entirely individual detached three bedroom residence extending to approximately 186 sq m / 2,002 sq ft. Behind its historic fabric is a highly contemporary home combining privacy, exceptional craftsmanship and interiors by Róisín Lafferty Design Arrival is discreet, through electric gates to secure off street parking with direct access to the house. Inside a generous entrance hall incorporates bespoke joinery and a dedicated boot room, while the guest WC is finished with a dramatic stone vanity and carefully considered detailing The house then opens into an impressive kitchen and dining space centred around a richly veined stone island, full height bespoke cabinetry and integrated storage. A separate utility room sits discreetly alongside Beyond, the architecture changes completely. The living room occupies a purpose built contemporary extension with ceilings rising to approximately 13 feet. A coffered ceiling adds depth and character while extensive glazing opens to two private landscaped gardens, drawing light and planting into the room from both sides and creating an almost pavilion like connection to the outdoors. Upstairs a long rooflit gallery leads to three generous bedroom suites, each with its own en suite. The principal suite is calm and beautifully proportioned with bespoke fitted joinery and carefully composed finishes Original brick, granite and slate have been retained alongside deliberately contemporary new architecture. The strength of the house lies in that contrast, historic character without pastiche, contemporary design without losing its provenance For a purchaser seeking something genuinely individual in Dublin 4, The Coach House is a rare proposition. Detached, securely gated, intensely private and filled with light, with exceptional living volume, two landscaped gardens and a level of design more commonly associated with an individually commissioned home It feels entirely its own a house with provenance, presence and a character that would be extraordinarily difficult to recreate
