2 Phoenix Terrace, Rock Road, Blackrock, Co. Dublin, A94E5X7

Janet Carroll Estate Agents are thrilled to present this marine located, 3/4 bedroom Victorian residence of approx. 168.7ms / 1808sq.ft for sale by Private Treaty. Originally constructed in 1850 for sea captains, this terraced home is steeped in history.

Located in the heart of Blackrock, 2 Phoenix Terrace has a rich past! It was once the residence of Prof. Robert Travers, a distinguished fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons. His daughter Mary made headlines in the 1860s when she boldly sued Speranza /Jane Wilde, the mother of Oscar Wilde, for libel, stirring up controversy in high society.

This beautifully preserved period property embodies timeless elegance while offering modern comforts. With its captivating architectural features, it stands in lovely condition throughout with flexible options on the accommodation.

Strategically situated within this protected terrace, it occupies a prime position on Phoenix Terrace overlooking Blackrock Park from the front, and it’s only a short walk through the park to Blackrock village, the seafront, Blackrock Clinic, and the DART station. Ample parking options are available, including off street parking to the rear of the property, resident permit parking on the terrace and in the park.

This period property at 2 Phoenix Terrace is not just a house: it's a lifestyle. Embrace the charm of traditional architecture while enjoying the conveniences of modern living and the vibrancy of Blackrock Village. Whether you’re relaxing in your elegantly designed home or exploring the nearby parks and local businesses, this location truly offers it all.
