Description
This remarkable period residence represents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully restored coastal home of exceptional quality in one of South County Dublin's most distinguished seaside addresses. Having been meticulously renovated, modernised and redecorated throughout, the house offers an elegant fusion of refined period craftsmanship and discreet contemporary luxury, all presented in flawless turnkey condition. This exquisitely renovated home combines traditional elegance with modern efficiency, holding an excellent B3 energy rating, ensuring both comfort and sustainability for the discerning buyer.
The accommodation which extends to approx. 197 sqm (2,120 sqft) is both gracious and thoughtfully composed, providing a sequence of beautifully proportioned rooms that lend themselves equally to formal entertaining and everyday family life. Original architectural detailing, ornate cornice work, centre roses, panelling and feature fireplaces have been carefully preserved and enhanced, while engineered limewashed oak flooring introduces a calm, contemporary aesthetic throughout. The property offers an excellent balance between reception rooms, relaxed living spaces and well sized bedrooms offering comfort, flexibility and privacy. Externally, the house unfolds in a series of elegant and intimate outdoor spaces. A railed and walled front garden creates a sense of arrival and separation from the street, while a charming internal courtyard draws natural light deep into the centre of the home. To the rear lies a delightful west-facing garden, a true sun-trap that enjoys long afternoon and evening light, offering a private and tranquil setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, or quiet relaxation.
Sandycove is synonymous with refined coastal living, combining village charm, a strong sense of community, and immediate access to the sea. The property is just moments from Sandycove Beach, the iconic Forty Foot, and the renowned coastal walks stretching through Glasthule to Dalkey, offering a lifestyle defined by fresh air, open water, and natural beauty. Nearby Dun Laoghaire provides an exceptional range of amenities including marina and sailing facilities, yacht clubs, coastal promenades, boutique shopping, cafés, restaurants, theatres, and cultural venues. The area is superbly connected, with the DART at Sandycove and Glasthule offering swift access to Dublin city centre, supported by frequent bus services and excellent road links. Together with a selection of highly regarded schools, this location offers a rare blend of coastal serenity and urban convenience, making this very much a lifestyle purchase of enduring appeal.
