BLACKROCK: €2.35M:AN original art deco bathroom is an attractive surprise in a 1930s house near the N11 end of Mount Merrion Avenue in Blackrock, Co Dublin. The 310sq m (3,336sq ft) five-bedroom house is being sold through Sherry FitzGerald, and has a price tag of €2.35 million.
Melmore, at 132 Mount Merrion Avenue, is detached and stands on just over half an acre of beautifully tended lawns front and back, sheltered from the busy road behind a high wall at the front.
It has been a comfortable family home for the current owners, who bought it in 1971: although new owners are likely to update parts of the house, like the kitchen, it has been very well maintained. It has attractive ceiling coving in much of the house.
Accommodation includes a drawingroom which opens into a sunny conservatory overlooking the back garden, a formal diningroom, a small study and family room downstairs, as well as the kitchen, which has a good-sized utility room. Upstairs, five bedrooms, most doubles, branch off a central landing. The handsome art deco bathroom is the main bedroom’s en suite and the bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe.
There is plenty of off-street parking at the front of the house.Large gardens have mature trees that shelter Melmore.
