No. 39 Avenue Road, Dublin 8. Tucked discreetly off Bloomfield Avenue, No. 39 Avenue Road is one of just three architect-designed residences that redefine contemporary living in Dublin 8. Cleverly spread across several unique split levels and boasting seven distinct outdoor terraces, this is a home that feels more like a private design sanctuary than a city house.
From its striking corrugated façade and hidden entrance to its breath-taking interiors layered with natural light, every inch of this exceptional home has been thoughtfully curated — and that’s before you even step onto the outdoor terraces, perfectly positioned to catch sunlight from east to west throughout the day.
Inside, the home is a masterclass in architectural flow and material elegance. The thoughtful layout offers a dynamic sense of space and volume, with floor-to-ceiling glazing, clerestory windows, and elevated ceiling heights throughout. Bespoke details such as terrazzo flooring with underfloor heating, slatted wood panelling, and sleek joinery give the interior a rich, modern texture.
At the heart of the home, a dramatic open-plan kitchen and dining area features high-gloss, handleless cabinetry, polished concrete countertops, and direct access to one of the many private terraces — ideal for entertaining in style. Three spacious bedrooms (including a luxurious principal suite with its own private deck), a striking lounge, a bright top-floor study, a media room, and multiple bathrooms offer a carefully considered balance of function and flair, all tied together by exceptional design and light.
To the rear, a west-facing landscaped garden provides a tranquil escape from the city — while the surrounding terraces capture sun and sky from every angle, making this a truly unique indoor-outdoor living experience.
Located just moments from the Grand Canal and Portobello’s ever-popular cafés, restaurants and artisan shops, No. 39 enjoys both privacy and proximity. Dublin city centre, LUAS, top schools, and excellent transport links are all within easy reach — yet you’d never know it from the calm and quiet of this tucked-away setting.
