Description

Sherry FitzGerald are delighted to present Rock House, a substantial double fronted two storey Victorian period family residence dating back to 1850. Rock House boasts over half an acre of mature, secluded grounds and gardens that occupy an elevated position and benefit from panoramic sea views across Howth, Dublin Bay and Dalkey Island, in this much sought after location on Coliemore Road in Dalkey. Rarely does a home with a private site of this size become available in this location. Although the house has been well maintained and upgraded over the years, it does offer the discerning purchaser a unique opportunity to potentially enhance this wonderful property and create their own bespoke home, all in one of the most scenic locations to live on this prominent coastline with the most expensive and luxurious homes in South County Dublin. Exceptionally well located just moments' walk from Dalkey Town with its myriad of amenities including specialty shops, banks, churches, restaurants, pubs, wine bars and public library. There are many quality schools close by including Loreto Abbey, Castle Park and Rathdown. Coliemore Harbour, lovely for sea swimming, is just a stroll down the road. Approximately 8 miles south of Dublin City via the DART while the Air Coach provides frequent access to and from Dublin Airport. Rock House is a spacious bright and well laid out period home totalling approx. 293 sq.m. or 3,154 sq.ft. Each room commands a sea view, and their room proportions are excellent throughout with two principal reception rooms to the front of the house, a conservatory off the main drawing room which overlooks the private walled French garden and the sea beyond. The dining room across the hall opens out on to a glazed family room with views of Dublin Bay and Howth which connects to the kitchen. A utility room and guest wc complete the ground floor. Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, 1 ensuite and a family bathroom. The two large front bedrooms have dual aspect and have views of Dublin Bay or Dalkey Island. The two bedrooms to the rear, also have sea views and are orientated towards Dalkey Island. The enviable all day sunny oriented gardens are a particular feature and surround the property beautifully. To the south side there is the French garden, leading up to the rear to an elevated patio and from there up granite steps to the top of the rock where there was a tearoom, providing a 360 degree spectacular view of the sea, Dalkey, Howth and Killiney Hill. There is a right of way to the side of this garden that leads from Victoria Road directly down to Coliemore Road. There may also be potential for further development on the grounds subject to planning. The grounds are very mature and offer cut stone boundary walls, mature lawns, trees and shrubs. The house is approached via a granite pillared entrance with imposing timber electric gates leading to a tarmacadam 100 meter driveway which sweeps up to the front and side of the property providing off street parking for many cars. There are also a number of outbuildings including a double garage, tool shed and an original greenhouse.
