13 Brookvale Road, Donnybrook, D04 C6H9

Brookvale Road is a quiet and charming residential terrace of Edwardian red and yellow brick town houses built circa 1915, facing an old steel footbridge over the River Dodder. Along the river side of the road is the verdant foliage of the river bank behind a centuries old stone wall The river itself is far below street level, alleviating any risk of flooding. At the end of Brookvale Road the riverside walk leads to Ashton's and Farmer Brown's in Clonskeagh and on up along the river to Milltown, Bushy Park and all the way to Bohernabreena. In the opposite direction is Herbert Park, the RDS, Lansdowne Road and Grand Canal dock.

The houses on Harmony Avenue and Brookvale Road were commissioned in June 1914 by The Pembroke Urban District Council as working-class cottages. They were designed by the prominent Dublin architect George Luke O'Connor.

Number 13 (lucky for some) was extensively modernized, extended and upgraded by the current owners in 2021 to a very high standard. It is energy efficient with extra insulation, triple-glazed windows, a solid fuel stove in the hearth, and an efficient gas fired combi-boiler.

At the heart of this home is an open-plan living/dining/kitchen space with a very large skylight and glazing front and back, filling the space with natural light. Behind the kitchen is a small lobby leading to the new shower room with frosted glass window, tiling, heated towel rail, and a high flow shower head.

There are small yards front and rear giving space to sit out and enjoy the sunshine. The back yard backs onto the grounds of the local scout hall making development of that space highly unlikely.

There is on-street permit parking on Brookvale Road, with additional parking available across the bridge in Beech Hill if needed.

Whoever snags this beautiful townhouse as their new home will be counting their lucky stars.
