HEATHERLEA, 8 PEMBROKE Park in Ballsbridge, Dublin 4 exudes the cool, clean lines of Edwardian architecture.

It is simply laid out and has oodles of room to manoeuvre from the minute you walk into its large, square entrance hall.

This double-fronted house has all the best features of the period, including a very beautiful stained glass window panel on the stairs, as well as decorative glazing on the inside front door.

This is a great family house with space for everyone to call a place of their own.

The five-bedroom, semi-detached house has been extensively refurbished providing 255sq m (2,750sq ft) of well-laid out accommodation.

It is for sale by private treaty through agent Sherry FitzGerald with an asking price of €2.4 million.

The dining and drawingroom both open off the hall. These two rooms are spacious with honey-coloured floorboards, original fireplaces and are decorated with antique-style furnishings.

The drawingroom enjoys a deep bay window. Its mahogany fireplace with tiled inset is original to the house and was restored by the previous owners.

The drawingroom has twin windows that overlook the back garden.

From the hall a short set of steps takes you down half a level to the large modern kitchen and family room. This is all limestone clad with under-floor heating.

The previous owners integrated what was a conservatory into the kitchen to create a really wonderful space, half of which is housed under an apexed roof. This creates a dual aspect, enhancing its natural light sources.

The swish, hand-painted kitchen works very well with the ambiance of the house and comes with enormous appliances, including a six-ring hob and a double dishwasher.

There is acres of storage, including a pantry cupboard and walk-in utility room as well as a smart island that comes with its own built-in dining table. You can imagine spending a lot of time in this part of the house.

Under the stairs is a storage cupboard that doubles as a wine cellar.

Upstairs, on the first floor return is one of the house’s five double bedrooms and the family bathroom. On the first floor there is a guest room and the main bedroom with its bay window and roomy en suite, which features Villeroy and Boch sanitryware. There is loads of built-in storage, created by master joiner Alan Gallagher.

On the first floor return is another double bedroom with a study in the attic that could also be a fifth bedroom.

A roof-light with more stained glass detailing illuminates the house from above.

There is off-street parking for three or more cars.
