Description
We have been asked by its owner to sell `Seaspray`, a fully serviced pre-1963 dwelling, discovered, reimagined and reconstructed during the nineties and located at Healys Lane, Portrane, Co. Dublin `Seapray` is a one-of-a-kind detached dormer bungalow offering 120 sq.m. of welcoming living space, nestled in the dunes behind the beautiful beach on the North Co. Dublin coastline. Designed and built by the current owners as an oasis of calm, privacy and light with some of the best beach access in County Dublin this is a rare opportunity. The property itself is bursting with design features, character details and glazing to take advantage of the south west facing plot. An example of this is the ground floor, with the exception of the bathroom, has solid wood floors taken from the sorting office in Sheriff Street, Dublin that is over 100 years old. It underwent a scheme of thermal upgrading in the 2010`s and also boasts a private garden and off street parking. The property is laid out with an entrance hallway that gives access to the lounge to the right, kitchen/diner to the left and a door to an internal hallway ahead. The lounge is a cosy and comfortable room that benefits from glazing to two sides, flooding the room with light in the morning and also pocket doors to the ground floor bedroom. The kitchen/diner is a large L-shaped room to the south and west that wraps around the building to offer views over the garden and glazing that flood the room with light. The kitchen has stone work tops and plenty of storage and prep space as well as a vintage `Nestor Martin` multi fuel stove to bring comfort on winters days. Further down there is a dining space and around the corner is another cosy seating area with bi-fold doors to the second reception room. This flexible space is a rare delight, with a ceiling opening generating a double height space flooding the room with light from above. There is also another feature fireplace to generate a warm and welcoming environment. The ground floor bedroom is nestled in the back corner, accessed off the lounge and the internal hallway. This large double has a wealth of built in shelving and a third fireplace. The ground floor is completed by a shower room with non slip tiled floor, walk in shower and space and plumbing for a washing machine. The mezzanine floor is accessed by a metal spiral staircase from the second reception room. This brings you into a landing space that is currently used as an office and offers beautiful views to the sea. There is a bespoke metal balustrade that surrounds the open double height space back down to the first floor and there is a door to an attic room. This attic room is another great size, with storage under eaves to both sides and an en suite bathroom with bath and shower over, WC and hand basin. Externally, the list of features continues to grow with secure gated access to the front offering security and privacy, There is off street parking for multiple cars, external storage and the rear garden is landscaped with mature planting designed to provide screening and privacy and a beautiful water feature and pond. The property is nestled on Healys Lane, a single track lane linking Burrow Road that runs the length of the Portrane peninsula, with the beach and the Irish Sea 75 metres away. This unique location provides an ideal balance of being off the shore line to avoid the worst of the weather and any future erosion concerns, with immediate access to the beach. Portrane Beach is a 2-km Blue Flag sandy beach backed by dunes, offering scenic views of Lambay Island and a, peaceful, natural environment. It features a main sandy area for walking and swimming, alongside the smaller, more secluded rocky cove of Tower Bay. Key attractions include the 4-km cliff walk to Donabate, birdwatching in the adjacent estuary, and a historic 1805 Martello Tower. The real surprise is that all of this is available in a location that is still within easy reach of Dublin and with good amenities to hand. The town of Donabate lies 3km to the east and offers coffee shops, restaurants, a Supervalu and Aldi and a wealth of other facilities. The Donabate train station also provides mainline access into Dublin Connelly and the M1 motorway is an 11 minute drive giving easy access to Dublin International Airport, the M50 and the wider Dublin region. All this is available immediately and with no onward chain so would suit a ready to go buyer. Call now to find out more and book a viewing!
