1 Uplands is a particularly charming Italianate style villa home where the allure not only lies in its architectural beauty but also in the sense of grandeur and period charm that exudes throughout. The property forms one half of a pair of Victorian homes built circa 1840's for the Pim brothers who were part of a well-known merchant family. This exquisite home is a true gem combing elegance, history, and modern comfort. Boasting an enviable site of approximately 0.5 acres and located on one of Monkstown's most desirable roads makes this a home not to be missed.

This stunning property extending to approximately 320 sq m / 3,445 sq ft of graciously proportioned living accommodation is awash with period features to include intricate ceiling plasterwork, tall ceilings, magnificent fireplaces, original stripped and polished timber floorboards and working window shutters. The double reception room with dual aspect bay windows allow natural light to illuminate the space throughout the day and is one of the standout features that sets this home apart. Whether you are entertaining guests or simply relaxing, this room provides the perfect setting for creating memories.

Electric gates open onto the gravel driveway which can accommodate multiple vehicles with ease. A flight of granite steps flanked by wrought iron railings ascends to the front door. From the moment you step inside the graciously proportioned and welcoming entrance hall you are instantly aware that what awaits is a home of immense charm. On the right of the entrance hall is the magnificent double reception room with two sets of bay windows providing both views over the gardens and surrounding area, a feature marble fireplace and intricately detailed ceiling plasterwork. To the left of the entrance hall is the principal suite with the bedroom enjoying a dual aspect overlooking the gardens and from here is a door to the dressing room which in turn leads to the luxuriously appointed shower room with a further door back into the entrance hall. At the end of the hallway is a bathroom and the second bedroom which is a generous double.

Stairs descend to the garden level, the country style kitchen is fitted with oak wall and floor mounted units, an oil-fired white AGA, integrated electrical appliances and original quarry tiled floor, an archway connects to the sitting room which is also accessed from the hallway. Off the kitchen is a utility room, a wine cellar and door to outside. On the other side of the hall are the formal dining room with fireplace and bay window and the garden room a bright and cosy room enjoying a dual aspect with French doors providing access to the garden. A third double bedroom, shower room and study complete the living accommodation.

The west-facing garden offers a serene and private retreat, enhancing the charm of this delightful home. A spacious paved patio serves as an ideal spot for outdoor entertaining where you can relish the soothing sounds of the stream at the garden's edge amidst a lush tree lined enclave, further contributing to the tranquil and secluded atmosphere.
