Tucked away and compact in Dalkey for €750,000

Grosvenor Terrace is a road that even long-time Dalkey residents might never have seen. Tucked away behind open iron gates off Sorrento Road, about half way between Dalkey village and the Vico Road, there are a handful of houses old and new down this narrow, very secluded cul-de-sac.

The Mews is a compact 84sq m (904sq ft) detached three-bedroom house – one bedroom is currently used as a livingroom – built about a decade ago near the bottom of Grosvenor Terrace, for sale by private treaty through Sherry FitzGerald.

The front door opens into a large square double-height hall fitted out – and described in the agent’s brochure – as a livingroom.

A galleried landing upstairs looks down into the space and there is a Velux window adding light. To the right is a room described as the main bedroom with a tiled en suite off it – the room is, however, used as the livingroom. To the left of the front hall is the neat kitchen/diningroom, separated by the breakfast bar. It has a tiled floor and partly tiled walls.

Floor-to-ceiling sliding doors open into a small, very sheltered garden with a patio and a small lawn sloping up to tall stone walls.

Upstairs are two under-eaves bedrooms, one single, one double, both with en suite shower rooms, at either end of the galleried landing: these have dormer windows. There is parking for up to two cars immediately in front of the house.

Grosvenor Terrace is a short walk to the Dart station in Dalkey.
