PHONE: (01) 618 1300 FAX: (01) 618 1433 WWW.SAVILLS.IE Information Sheet There are only 25 residences – one suitable for every lifestyle. Absolute convenience in the heart of Dublin’s business district. The return to city living has been a phenomenon in Dublin for two decades. People have realised the true benefits of living in the centre of everything. How many working hours are wasted each year getting to and from work? This is time that is incredibly valuable that could be spent enjoying a relaxed breakfast, exercising at the gym or simply having a lie on. Now, city living takes on a whole new meaning with the launch of 18 Lower Baggot Street, between Merrion Square and Fitzwilliam Square. Situated literally three minutes by foot from St. Stephens Green and only two minutes from Dail Eireann, Ireland’s seat of Government, 18 Lower Baggot Street is a development of just 25 spacious and elegant apartments. Positioned in a peaceful landscaped courtyard yet literally in the middle of the city, this is truly a once-off opportunity to purchase a property of distinction in one of the best locations Dublin has to offer. At 18 Lower Baggot Street, getting business done is measured in minutes not hours. It is perfect for busy people who hate stress, traffic and the rat race. The Shelbourne Hotel is a two-minute walk and Grafton Street is just five. The IFSC is a short taxi ride, and the Luas stop at the Green is on your doorstep. Developer: Greystep Limited Architect: Arthur Gibney & Partners Design Consultants: Creative Art Contractor: Walsh Maguire Ltd. Location As a city base, or pied-a-terre, this development is perfect. It is a place where you can enjoy the working week without the horrendous commute and it couldn’t be better placed amongst Dublin’s best hotels, restaurants, pubs and shops. 18 Lower Baggot Street backs onto Fitzwilliam Lane, which meets Upper Merrion Street directly opposite Leinster House. The pedestrian entrance to the development is directly off Lower Baggot Street through an elegant Georgian building, which typifies Dublin architecture. Inside, these new-build apartments are slick, ultra-modern and are equipped with the absolute best in contemporary fittings. A range of spacious 1 and 2 bedroom apartments are provided along with two spectacular penthouses, all surrounding a lovely landscaped courtyard. This really is one of those rare occasions when a property of real quality is complemented by a location to match. It is a location where you have three magnificent gardens to choose from – Fitzwilliam Square, St. Stephen’s Green or Merrion Square. Now that really is the essence of convenience. Pembroke Estate Baggot Street, Merrion Square and Fitzwilliam Square were built on Baggotrath on lands owned by Viscount Fitzwilliam and through which the ancient routes leading south of the city passed. The 6th Viscount Fitzwilliam of Merrion began development of Merrion Square on the great fields of this estate in the 1750s and Fitzwilliam Square was subsequently laid out in the late 18th century. Both squares and the surrounding neighbourhood instantly acquired a reputation as the prestigious place to live and work in Dublin. The prestige of the location has pertained through the centuries and until 50 years ago the majority of these magnificent buildings were used as private residences. Indeed many of the houses have plaques with historical information on former notable residents. Despite a swing away from residential to commercial usage in the later half of the 20th century, today we are witnessing the phenomena of a return to city living, as modern day aristocrats reclaim the city with prestigious residential addresses such as 18 Lower Baggot Street. Building Entrance Residents can enjoy discrete and elegant entry to their apartment through the original Georgian door of 18 Lower Baggot Street, with a dedicated reception area and Concierge for residents and guests. Elevators Custom-built passenger elevator cabs serve the apartments, penthouses and underground car park.
