Description
Raven Lodge is a unique and captivating villa-style residence located in the heart of Glasthule village. From its picturesque, landscaped garden to its period charm and spacious accommodation (approx. 188 sq m / 2034 sq ft), this home is a true standout in the area. The convenience of its location, just steps away from the village, the dart, and the seafront, make Raven Lodge a must-see property for those in search of the perfect blend of elegance and practicality.
Once you set foot inside Raven Lodge, you will be captivated by its beauty and style. The tall Cordyline tree standing proudly in the landscaped garden sets the tone for the Mediterranean ambiance that permeates the entire property. Every corner of this home exudes period grace and elegance and will most certainly appeal to those with a taste for classic architecture and modern comfort. The spacious layout and excellent condition of the interior make Raven Lodge a welcoming haven for anyone looking for a place to call home.
A flight of granite steps flanked by wrought iron railings, ascend to the front door with overhead fanlight and side lights. The wide entrance hall with period detail to include ceiling coving, centre rose and archway leading to the rear hall sets the tone for what lies ahead. To the left are well proportioned interconnecting reception rooms with tall ceilings, these gracious and elegant reception rooms are ideal for formal entertainment. On the right of the entrance hall is a sitting room which could just as easily be used as a second bedroom. Also to the right of the hall is the third bedroom overlooking the rear garden. Stairs descend to the rear return where the large family bathroom is located a stunning stained-glass door with fanlight over is not only a pretty feature but also allows for natural light to permeate the entry ways.
At the garden level we arrive at the kitchen/breakfast/family room enjoying a dual aspect overlooking the front and rear gardens and hand painted cream fitted units add to a country kitchen feel. The main bedroom is located at this level and features a walk-in dressing room and a large ensuite shower room which has further door into the hallway. Also off the entry way are a utility room and guest wc.
The low-maintenance landscaped front and rear gardens are a most noteworthy feature of Raven Lodge with the added convenience of rear vehicular access through an electric gate which is a rare find in such a central location. A pedestrian gate provides access to the front garden which is mainly laid out in artificial grass bordered by beds that are well stocked with mature planting providing a blaze of colour throughout the growing seasons. Side access leads to the rear garden featuring a raised Indian sandstone paved patio area ideal to enjoy a summer barbecue. The south-west orientation could not be more perfect for those looking to basque in the afternoon and evening sunshine whilst being enveloped in the refreshing sea breeze.
Whether you enjoy relaxing in your garden oasis or entertaining guests in style, Raven Lodge offers the perfect setting for both.
Situated in the heart of Glasthule village, the location could not be more convenient. The village itself is both quaint and picturesque but also provides an array of shopping facilities from local shops, bars, cafés, restaurants and of course is home to the renowned Cavistons. For more extensive shopping Dun Laoghaire town centre is a short stroll away. The area is awash with social and recreational amenities from coastal walks available along the promendade and out the East Pier, swimming at nearby Forty Foot, the Farmers Market in the People's Park to the various maritime activities to be enjoyed in the three yacht clubs.
Public transport links are well catered for with the DART just across the road to Dublin Bus routes providing swift and easy access to the city centre. The Aircoach running through Glasthule connects with Dublin Airport in approximately 58 minutes.
