MURAL NOT A RESTAURANT

AN EXAMPLE OF STREET ART NEAR BEECHWOOD AVENUE

THE DOOR TO CHINA IS A MURAL NOT A FIVE STAR RESTAURANT [ON LANE BEHIND HOUSES ON MOYNE ROAD]

It has come to my attention that some online sources incorrectly identify 81 Moyne Road, Rathmines, as the former location of a Chinese restaurant, "The Door To China," purportedly boasting a five-star rating. This is a misrepresentation. In actuality, 81 Moyne Road is a private residence. The confusion may stem from the presence of a street art mural located on a lane situated behind the property.

To clarify the nature of 81 Moyne Road, it is a Victorian home situated in a desirable residential area. Property listings describe the address as being within the "lush and leafy heartland of Dublin 6," a location noted for its proximity to both St Stephen's Green and the Beechwood Luas stop. The residence itself, having undergone a comprehensive refurbishment and extension, offers approximately 2,200 square feet of living space.

The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, drawing room, dining room, open-plan study, kitchen, and family room. The contemporary extension features floor-to-ceiling glazing, providing ample natural light and views of the rear garden. Upstairs, the home includes four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property also benefits from a large, private, walled and fenced rear garden with a decking area.

Key features of the residence include high ceilings, sash windows, ornate plasterwork, and fireplaces, blending period charm with modern amenities such as a bespoke kitchen with granite worktops and designer appliances.
