Dublin, Stillorgan, Ireland

Built in 1869 by local Philanthropist Charles Shields, for Alms houses and later refurbished in the late 1980’s, Arkle Square is an exclusive and mature residential development off Brewery Road, Stillorgan. The original stone clock tower at the entrance is the crowning glory of the development complete with gargoyles and a chime on the hour in the daytime. All of the houses in the square back onto a tranquil courtyard with a flowing fountain water feature in the centre. There is a lovely sense of community.
No. 25 is a picturesque 2 bedroom cut granite townhouse, which has been recently upgraded. The current owners have presented this home in a most impressive condition throughout and includes beautiful decor, a modern kitchen & shower room, and light-filled accommodation throughout which is dovetailed with the beauty and charm of this unique and attractive setting.

Immediately on entering one knows you are somewhere special. The front door opens to a hall with accommodation off, generous storage, and stairs to the first floor. The kitchen has been recently updated with the focal point being a large Smeg range cooker. The living room and dining room to the rear are large in size and open onto a sun filled terrace with access to a communal garden presented in lawn, directly facing the impressive clock tower and fountain. On the first floor are two very generous bedrooms and a recently upgraded shower room, all located off the landing. There is a large attic providing additional storage space. To the front of the property is a landscaped garden with off street parking.
The location itself is second to none within easy access to public transport - The Luas (Sandyford), Air coach and Dublin bus routes.
