A Georgian house on an acre of beautiful gardens feels so secluded it could be in the heart of the country – but Glasthule Lodge is a short walk from Glasthule village in Co Dublin , hidden away down a lane off Adelaide Road. Built in the 1820s, it has plenty of period features – elegant plasterwork, marble fireplaces, stained-glass panels set into some windows – but is also a comfortable family home.
A front porch with a tiled floor opens into a front hall with its original polished timber floor. There’s a wide sittingroom on the left with a white marble fireplace with tiles inset and French doors opening into the garden at the side of the house. A cosy study on the right has a black marble gas-effect fireplace and under the carpet, says John, there’s a foot bell, which would have been pressed to summon servants.
The main bedroom has an en suite with a black tiled floor and white tiled walls. A family bathroom on the second floor has tongue-and-groove panelled walls painted pink – and off it, a walk-in closet.
