About the road

About Orwell Road

Orwell Road has detached houses along with a terraced and an end-of-terrace home, ranging from about 115 to 184 m². Most have four bedrooms, with some three and five. Several were built in the 1930s and 1940s, and most would benefit from updating. One has been extended and one keeps period features such as cornicing and fireplaces.

Rathgar village is nearby, with Rathmines, Ranelagh, Terenure and Dartry within walking distance. Windy Arbour Luas stop is about a 10-minute walk, and St Stephen's Green is about 15 minutes by Luas. Bus routes serve the city centre. Milltown Golf Club, Rathgar Tennis Club, Dodder Park and Bushy Park are close, as are Alexandra College, The High School, Stratford College, St Mary's College and Terenure College.
