The ladies of the Her.ie towers share a collective dream to one day find and inhabit a beautiful city cottage, with exposed brick and crawling ivy.
We wistfully pin craft projects to our “dream home” boards and imagine life tucked up under a dozen throws on a beautiful corner couch. In essence, this day dreaming and planning accounts for approximately 40% of our thoughts.
So when this beauty popped up on Felicity Fox we were sent into over drive.
The Ballsbridge cottage is located on the banks of Grand Canal and though it is currently used as an office, a recent extension and planning permission approval for change of use means this is the dream home for anyone with a spare €950,000.
Once over the threshold you are greeted by a glazed entrance hall which leads through to a large reception area with exposed brick walls and French doors opening onto the rear patio with views of the grand canal. There are three good reception rooms at ground floor level with small kitchen facilities and two bathrooms.
There is also a second entrance with hall and staircase, which leads to first floor. Upstairs there are three large rooms, two of them with french doors leading out to a roof terrace and views of the canal. The third room spans the full width of the house while a shower room completes the accommodation.
