Description
Finalist on RTE Home of the Year.

This exceptional detached 1920s family home has been fully renovated and thoughtfully extended to an outstanding standard, creating a seamless blend of period character and modern living. Previously recognised as a finalist in RTE's Home of the Year, the property offers beautifully presented, light-filled accommodation throughout, designed with both style and practicality in mind.

Set just off the Malone Road, the home is ideally suited to modern family life, with a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and living space at its heart, complemented by a separate snug and four well-proportioned bedrooms.

The property opens into a welcoming entrance hall, immediately reflecting the quality and attention to detail found throughout. To the front, a beautifully presented snug or family room provides a warm and inviting retreat, enhanced by dual aspect windows and bespoke shutters.

To the rear, the home opens into an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space - the true heart of the home. Designed for both everyday family living and entertaining, this space features a large central island, quartz work surfaces and an extensive range of fitted units and integrated appliances. A striking exposed brick wall, Heta cast iron stove and bespoke built-in shelving create a space that is both functional and full of character, while double doors provide direct access to the private rear garden.

A separate rear hallway offers excellent built-in storage and access to the utility room, adding further practicality alongside the ground floor cloakroom.

Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a dedicated dressing room and a contemporary ensuite shower room. One of the additional bedrooms is enhanced by a built-in walk-in wardrobe, while the remaining rooms are served by a stylish family bathroom.

Externally, the property is approached via electric gates leading to a generous driveway with ample parking. The rear garden is private and enclosed, laid in lawns with a sheltered paved patio area - ideal for outdoor dining and family use.

Rarely does a home of this quality, design and location come to the market. Offering an exceptional balance of space, style and practicality, early viewing is highly recommended.
