End-of-terrace early Victorian house was fully restored and refurbished in 2020 by conservation architects and the result is a magnificent family home
With its commanding location on the corner of Carysfort Avenue and Brookfield Terrace in Blackrock, Co Dublin, number 1 Prince Edward Terrace Lower cuts an imposing figure. This end-of-terrace early Victorian house has good reason to lord it over this crossroads: it was fully restored and refurbished in 2020 by conservation architects Studio And, and the result is a magnificent family home of 318sq m that wears its old features and new designs very elegantly indeed.
1 Prince Edward Terrace Lower, Blackrock: During the refurbishment, the owners uncovered a lovely original granite chimney breast in the front room, and this has been fully restored. There are two huge interconnecting reception rooms to the left of the hall, both with matching marble fireplaces that have been brought back to full functionality. To the right of the hall is a fine study with dual aspect, a fireplace and bespoke bookshelves.Home retrofit: low-cost loans will help but homeowners left to deal with inflated prices
The interconnected kitchen/dining area mirrors the interconnecting reception rooms above, running from the front to the back of the house. The bespoke kitchen to the back is created by Porter & Jones and is a chef’s delight, equipped with large centre island with a sink unit, oak wall and floor cupboards with brass fittings and Donegal tweed-lined drawers, and a Smeg six-plate gas hob with two ovens for rustling up big family meals.
There are two large double bedrooms, each with a tiled-inset fireplace, sash windows and built-in wardrobes.The main bathroom is pure Victorian elegance, with high-quality white sanitary ware, a bath with shower attachment and a large shower with Burlington fittings.An elegant staircase brings you up to the other three bedrooms, with a full-length Georgian-style window on the return, with views out to the enormous back garden.
