HISTORIC HOME SPANNING 10,010 ft² / 930 m² ON 5 SEPARATE LEVELS
MOVEHOME ESTATE AGENTS are honoured to present one of the very first and finest early Georgian mansions to be built in the city, when construction commenced in Dublin around the early 1730s. Number 4 Henrietta Street was completed around 1740 by Nathaniel Clements, and throughout its 285-year history, it has played host to a wealth of fascinating occupants. This presents a unique opportunity to acquire an exceptional historical asset in a truly unrivaled setting, all within a highly accessible and central location.
This exquisite building spans over 930 m / 10,010 ft on five separate levels with gorgeous proportions and was wonderfully maintained by the previous owners, yet requires modernisation. A perfect balance of elegant accommodation awaits to include four gracious reception rooms on the ground and first floor, each with exceptionally high ceilings, period fireplaces, and original wooden flooring. Number 4 also has an original grand mahogany staircase in the entrance hall, which is possibly the oldest of its kind 'in situ' in this country, and the ornamentation of the garden drawing-room is one of the finest examples of neo-classical architecture in Dublin today.
The house has 22 separate rooms over the 5 levels. There are tunnels to the rear under the garden and further underground storage to the front, with pedestrian access onto the street from the lower ground floor. There is a north-facing garden of about 263sq m (2,831sq ft) with a tunnel below it leading to the site at the rear, which is owned separately by a neighbour and hosts a commercial unit. The garden enjoys an abundance of natural mature trees and lawn, and overlooks the rear commercial site from a generous height.
No. 4 Henrietta Street was in private hands for the last 50 years and was owned & occupied by a renowned artist and printmaker, who had her studio on the very top floor. This is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and a historical home of distinction, located just off Bolton Street and Capel Street. If Dublin is a Georgian city, then Henrietta Street is the inspiration and the blueprint for all of the development that followed, as it was the very first Georgian street constructed. The property is one of the largest houses in the city and remains one of the best Georgian mansions Dublin city will ever have to offer.
Viewings are strictly private and by appointment only and can be arranged directly with Ronan Crinion MIPAV MMCEPI of MOVEHOME Estate Agents.
