Description
Ingle Cottage is a wonderfully appointed detached Period home, well-presented and perfectly positioned on this elevated and exclusive road in the heart of Dalkey—one of South County Dublin's most desirable coastal suburbs. This charming property effortlessly blends its original character with a secluded setting, offering a warm and inviting ambiance throughout.
Beyond its elegant traditional façade, Ingle Cottage unfolds into generously proportioned, light-filled interiors that extend to approximately 133sq.m (1,432sq.ft). With sea views to the front, this residence truly offers the perfect blend of heritage, style, and potential in an idyllic location.
The flexible layout with beautifully appointed rooms includes high ceilings and original features. Large windows to the front frame picturesque views over the Dalkey Roof tops, of the sea and surrounding landscape. They also flood this home with natural light throughout the day.
A porch entrance connects to the living and dining rooms with a door opening to the garden. The inner hall incorporating a home office area leads to three very fine bedrooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, sunroom, bathroom and shower room. While already a comfortable and stylish home, Ingle Cottage offers significant scope for extension or reconfiguration, subject to planning permission, allowing any future owner to tailor it to their specific needs.
Set back from the road, the property benefits from a large drive that provides off-street parking for three to four cars. A double garage to the side offers additional parking and storage, or the opportunity for conversion into further living space, a studio, or home office, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Off the garage is a large storeroom. To the side, the sunny mature garden offers a serene outdoor retreat. It is abundant with mature flowers, shrubs, has a feature pond, a potting/garden shed and a small, enclosed courtyard area. There is a large inner courtyard to the rear of this wonderful home offering further outdoor space.
