Elegant Victorian Style Home With Modern Comforts

Mount Alexander is a most attractive double-fronted detached period-style residence, ideally positioned on St Mary’s Road, one of Ballsbridge’s most established and highly regarded tree-lined residential roads.

Built in 1991, the property was designed in a traditional Victorian style, with high ceilings, decorative cornices, and period-style fireplaces providing architectural character throughout. While it has the appearance and presence of an older Dublin residence, it offers the practical proportions, comfort, and ease of maintenance associated with a more modern home. Importantly, Mount Alexander is not a protected structure.

The well-maintained accommodation provides generous and versatile living space, making the property suitable for a range of purchasers, including families, professional households, and those seeking to downsize without moving to apartment living. The home offers ample space for entertaining and accommodating family and friends, while the manageable outdoor space reduces the maintenance often associated with a substantial detached residence.

A particularly valuable feature is the private off-street parking for up to three cars, a rare amenity in such a central Dublin location. To the rear, a private patio garden provides a pleasant outdoor area suitable for al fresco dining, morning coffee, or general relaxation.

The location is exceptional. St Mary’s Road is within easy walking distance of Baggot Street, Ballsbridge village, and a wide selection of restaurants, cafés, hotels, and local amenities. Herbert Park and the Bishop’s Garden are both nearby, providing attractive green spaces close to home. The Grand Canal, Sandymount, the city centre, and Dublin’s principal business districts are also readily accessible.

The area is particularly well served for education, with several leading primary and secondary schools within easy reach. UCD and Trinity College Dublin are also readily accessible, while the surrounding area offers a broad choice of sporting and recreational facilities, including golf and tennis clubs, gyms, and parks.

For families, the property provides a well-connected base close to schools, universities, sport, and the city centre. For professional purchasers, it combines a peaceful residential setting with convenient access to Dublin’s commercial, cultural, and social amenities. For those looking to simplify their lifestyle, it offers the opportunity to retain the space, privacy, and character of a detached home without the upkeep of a large garden.

Mount Alexander represents a rare opportunity to acquire a detached period-style residence in one of Dublin 4’s most desirable locations, combining traditional architectural character with modern practicality, generous parking, and an excellent Ballsbridge address.
