| Introduction |

“Undoubtedly one of Dublin’s most important residences”. Strathmore Strathmore
stands on 3.654Ha (9.03 Acres) and for the past fifty years has been
the official residence of the Canadian Ambassador in Ireland. This most
impressive home was designed by Alfred Gresham Jones and originally
dates from the 1860’s, it was extensively remodelled in the late 1940’s
by Oliver Hill Architect, a pupil of Sir Edwin Lutyens.

Location: |
 |
Strathmore
is located approximately 10 miles south of Dublin city centre, Killiney
DART Station is 200 yards away and Dalkey Village less than 2 miles
away. Access to the M50, N11 at the Cherrywood interchange providing
easy access to Dublin Airport and North County Wicklow.
| |
Strathmore
extends to 760 sq.m. (8,200 sq.ft.) and has some of the most elegant
and impressive reception rooms in any home in Ireland particularly the
drawing room 17.8m x 7.3m (58’5” x 23’ 11”) overlooking the sumptuous
terrace and sweeping gardens and on over Killiney Bay down to the Sugar
Loaf Mountain. The hall, dining room and study are all also extremely
well proportioned as are the six principal bedrooms on the first floor,
many of which have stunning south facing views over the gardens and
grounds, Killiney Bay and North County Wicklow. Strathmore stands on
a triangular site bounded largely by Strathmore Road. It also has
frontage and access onto Killiney Hill Road. There is a compact Gate
Lodge 83 sq.m. (890 sq.ft.) at the entrance and the grounds enjoy utter
seclusion. The grounds vary from formal gardens, walled gardens,
extensive wooded areas to magnificent open parkland at the lower level,
given the times we live in it is most unusual to find a home so close
to Dublin in such an elegant setting. | |
