Description
'RESTORED ELEGANT PERIOD RESIDENCE'

REA Brophy Farrell have the absolute pleasure of welcoming you to La Villa where you can step back into an idyllic blend of historical elegance combined with modern living.

This unique residence comprises of a distinguished late Georgian Villa style semi-detached residence which has been sustainably and meticulously restored as a labour of love by its current owners with minimal intervention to its original layout and structure and in a nod to its Georgian origin.
Originally constructed circa 1845/1846 for Dr Rowan, an advocate for housing in Co Kildare, La Villa represents a sympathy renovated craftsmanship of late-Georgian style and elegance and possesses many original architectural features in addition to some bespoke pieces such as an original butlers bell cabinet and a tailors pole for opening the specially commissioned up and down windows.

As one approaches Canning Place, La Villa emerges with its imposing facade, characterised by double bay and large up and down double glazed sound proofing windows set behind the original cast iron gate and railing beautifully restored on a granite wall capping.

The residence is marked by the original red bricks path and salt glazed rope edging, flagged by a low maintenance Georgian design formal garden to the front door with original brass door furniture, carved corbels, stained glass fan light and side panels with lead features including the gold leaf number “7”.
Complemented by street lighting, this all sets the scene for what lies ahead and serves as a prelude to the splendor that awaits within.

Newbridge built on the River Liffey is located only 62KM from Dublin and represents a thriving community, education, commercial and employment centre, with a variety of cafes, pubs, restaurants, hotels, shopping centres and tourist attractions within easy reach.
The residence is within walking distance of a number of primary and secondary schools including St Conleth’s and St.Marys, Patrician and Holy Family secondary schools and Newbridge College.
There is also a wide range of sports clubs in the area including GAA, tennis, rugby, soccer, bridge and golf clubs and the Curragh racecourse is a mere 10 minute drive away.
Newbridge railway station is located only a five minutes’ walk away (1.7KM) offering an excellent service to Dublin while also serving the West and South while Dublin International Airport and Dublin City Centre are just an hour’s drive away from access to the M7 motorway practically on its doorstep and equally access to the South via the M7 / M8 and M9 motorways ( Limerick, Cork and Waterford ).

This is not merely a residence but a testament to the enduring beauty of Georgian architecture seamlessly integrated with contemporary amenities.

It is rare for such a unique property (in turn key condition) in both an attractive river view setting and convenient and commutable location to be placed on the market and presents an ideal opportunity for all discerning purchasers.

Viewing is highly recommended and strictly by appointment with sole selling agents REA Brophy Farrell.
