Dating from circa 1820, making it one of the oldest houses in Rathgar, Number 86 Rathgar Road is a chic and stylish three bedroom plus large home office, two-storey over basement Georgian home, located adjacent Rathgar village and its wonderful amenities. Well set back from the road with excellent off-street parking, this warm and inviting home is superbly positioned on the sunny westerly side of this popular road.

Extending to 255sq.m / 2745 sq. ft (approx.), it exudes a warm and welcoming atmosphere and has been designed around practical day-to-day family living. It provides a superb mix of accommodation comprising at hall level a gracious entrance hall and two elegant interconnecting reception rooms, with a bathroom located on the return. Stairs lead to the basement level, which has its own entrance from the front and comprises an open plan kitchen / dining room with utility room off, a smart shower room, and a large living room currently in use as a living room cum bedroom - ideal for providing a family member or guest with some independent space or as a large home office. The first floor return has an outdoor terrace overlooking the private west facing rear garden and on the first floor there are three generous double bedrooms, with a family shower room on the second-floor return.
The well-designed gardens front and rear are both low-maintenance. To the front, the house is well set back from the road and has a large driveway providing excellent off-street parking for 3 cars comfortably and comes complete with an electric car charge point. The rear garden is incredibly private and enjoys a much sought-after south-westerly aspect. Split-level, it is paved with mature, well stocked flower beds bordering with roses for colour and jasmine for fragrance. There is gated pedestrian access to Winton Mews lane, off Winton Avenue.
