This project involved the restoration and extension of a handsome four storey semi-detached Victorian redbrick townhouse in Blackrock, dating back to the 1860s.
Constructed in the 1950’s, the existing house had been extended twice in the last 20 years in an ad hoc manner leading to poor spatial layout internally.
This Victorian semi-detached house is one of many Protected Structures in Dublin that was subdivided into flats during the last century. Here, the upper two storeys comprised 8 self-contained apartments with the lower ground-floor occupied as a single garden-flat.
