Leading Irish developer Chartered Land has launched the swanky Nicholson Penthouse, which is set within one of Dublin’s most prominent new property developments. On the market for €7.5 million, the duplex penthouse would break the current record for Ireland’s most expensive apartment, with the current highest value home recently sold at the same development, which has attracted high profile individuals such as Rod Stewart, Bono, Roy Keane and others, for €7 million.
The exclusive penthouse is set atop The Nicholson Building, the final phase at the highly sought after Lansdowne Place. Occupying the entire eighth floor and providing 360-degree views across the Dublin skyline and directly onto the iconic Aviva Stadium, the 8,008 sq. ft. penthouse comprises two principal bedroom suites with walk-in wardrobes, two guest bedrooms suites, lounge, expansive open-plan kitchen/dining/living room, private study, utility/laundry room, two private terraces and a garden roof terrace.
The Nicholson Penthouse at Lansdowne Place benefits from two separate entrances, accessed via a private corridor. Providing visitors with a sense of the size of the home from the moment they enter, a double height hallway with full-length glazed windows fills the space with natural light and offers eye-catching views across the city and onto the sea.
Leading off the hallway is the impressive kitchen/dining/living room, which benefits from high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. The marble clad kitchen is fitted with high grade integrated appliances and features bespoke cupboards and a pantry by world-class furniture makers and joiners O’Connors of Drumleck, Co. Louth. The space, perfect for entertaining, also opens onto a large L-shaped private terrace that can also be accessed by the second bedroom.
Across the hallway is a snug lounge/living room that features a striking marble fireplace with a bio ethanol fire that creates a cosy atmosphere, ideal for family gatherings. The room is filled with light through an array of ceiling windows, whilst large glazed panels provide stunning vistas of Dublin.
The room is directly connected to the main bedroom suite, via the private study, which benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and marble clad ensuite with a luxury bath and shower. The bedroom also opens onto a second L-shaped terrace that can also be accessed via the study and lounge/living room.
