‘Clonbur House’ is a substantial period residence from the Georgian era, a house steeped in history in a secluded and yet well connected location. In addition to the impressive 588 sqm / 6,326 sqft in the main house (inclusive of a self contained 2 bedroom granny flat) the current owners have just secured full planning permission for a modern detached house of approximately 2,713 sqft on the site of the existing tennis court. The house itself was carefully placed on an elevated plateau overlooking the river Liffey below on approximately 1.3 acres of beautifully mature multi-tiered site, this ostentatious family home enjoys stunning views across the river Liffey in and Dublin City on the horizon. There is also direct access to the Phoenix park from the property, one of only 7 residents in the city with the same privilege. All in all this is a 'once in a generation' opportunity to Clonbur House, a substantial piece of real estate with potential for additional income or further development just 4km from Hueston Station and the City beyond. Originally constructed in 1837 this substantial residence displays all the characteristics of the Georgian period. The 'Ballroom' is perhaps the best example of this, at one point in time it was used to host movie screenings for some of Hollywood’s heavyweights such as Walt Disney and Gary Cooper to name but a few. Once you meander up the sweeping driveway and the main house is revealed, it is immediately impressive and gets better at every turn. The front facade is quite symmetric with a double bay window and gardens that climb from there up above the house to the old wall and hidden gate that runs along the boundary with the Phoenix Park. The tennis court occupies a portion of the grounds but the planning permission now fully granted offers the new owners a variety of potential options for now or in years to come. The plans provide for a detached 252sqm/2,713sqft architect designed two storey residence which is quite separate to the main house with a shared entrance. A 'granny flat' was renovated in 2001 and is fully self contained with a private sundeck overlooking the mature trees on the banks of the river. Thid could easily be returned to the main house but currently provides a regular monthly income to the owners of the property. With all that is on offer it is still quite clear that Clonbur House itself is still the main attraction. The accommodation still retains all the grandeur and style it from its heyday but has been modernised by the exiting owners and offers the potential purchasers the opportunity to start to plan elegant parties of their own once the deal is done! This is not a property you ever truly own, you are simply the custodian for the duration of your ownership. Internally the gracious and unusually large entrance hall is decked out in black and white marble tiles and provides access to all of the formal reception rooms. The layout of the house is more or less as it was designed originally with some alterations and renovations. The kitchen / dining room to the rear complete with a separate utility and store room being the main upgrade carried out in modern times. The Snooker room, drawing room and Ballroom are all as grand as one might expect. It is easy to imagine how each of these unique reception rooms might have hosted cinematic dignitaries and hosted posh parties throughout recent history. The Ballroom in particular is oozing period charm and character with the plaster detail and fireplaces all perfectly preserved. Upstairs there are 5 well proportioned bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a study. The main bedroom could easily be confused with suite in a 5 star hotel complete with a large walk through wardrobe at the entrance, and a beautiful ensuite. There are three different aspects which allows sunlight to pour in all day. There is direct access to the raised patio to the rear where the current owners have hot tub and enjoy the early morning or late evening sun. Bedroom 2 is equally impressive with a dual aspect and the best views available from any of the rooms upstairs. Overlooking the river Liffey with a large ensuite shower room. There are three further bedrooms all, generously proportioned double rooms with a study which looks out on the river and a bathroom off the raised landing. The setting is quite unique given the location, position and convenience of this distinguished family home. One can walk to the Dublin City in under an hour, 12 mins on a bicycle or hop in a taxi and you could be there in less than 15mins. Access to the M50 / M1 motorway network is just 6km away and the Airport is about 20 mins away (depending on traffic of course). Furthermore, there is a small village in the nearby Chapelizod packed with artisan coffee shops and bakeries just a short stroll away.
