Ellerslie is a classically proportioned Victorian period residence c1868 of enormous charm, great character and architectural merit combining total seclusion with a superbly convenient location on one of the most prestigious roads in Dublin. This is without doubt one of the finest family homes to come on the market in Dublin this year, standing on 0.68 acre of exquisite private landscaped gardens south facing gardens with elegant accommodation extending to 6815 sq ft/633sqm.
Temple Road in the heart of the best part of Dublin 6 retains the dignity and relaxed pace of another more graceful period. In an area celebrated for its superbly designed streets and property the charming trees lined ambiance has a special character and atmosphere all of its own.
One of the jewels in the crown of this exceptional road must surely be Ellerslie and magnificent red brick family home standing on magical landscaped gardens. Open the door and you will certainly be in one of the finest homes in Dublin.
The interior is breath-taking. A suite of reception rooms at hall level are of truly elegant proportions and combine to provide a wonderful entertaining space with a restrained grandeur displayed in carved ceiling plasterwork and fine tall sash windows and chimneypieces, yet individually each room is extremely comfortable and pleasant for every day family living. Generous living and entertainment accommodation at garden level are complimented by excellent bedrooms and bathrooms perfect for easy family living. The property was renovated in recent years to exacting standards creating a warm comfortable family home of distinction and style.
The gardens extending on 0.68 acre approx., are stunning and rare to find in Dublin, set behind secure electric gates enjoying complete seclusion and facing due south to the rear. Planted in classical style with rolling lawns, box hedging, mature specimen trees and a profusion of spring and summer flowering bulbs. The location is first class, enviably positioned just 2 miles from St Stephens Green in a location second to none with Ranelagh, Dartry, Rathmines and Donnybrook on the doorstep within walking distance of extensive local amenities including Universities, senior and junior schools. Sports clubs include David Lloyd River View, Milltown Golf Club, Brookfield and Fitzwilliam tennis clubs. The local Luas stop is a mere stroll at Milltown.
