Description
An Exceptional Coastal Family Residence
Positioned in one of Dún Laoghaire's most sought-after residential enclaves, Thornbury is an elegant, modern detached family home of distinction, offering space, privacy and an unrivalled coastal lifestyle. Presented in walk-in condition, this impressive five bedroom residence (with additional attic room) extends to approximately 175 sq.m (1,883 sq.ft) including the attic, and enjoys a superb west-facing rear garden together with secure off-street parking.
Overlooking the leafy expanse of the People's Park, and just moments from Dún Laoghaire Harbour and the Sandycove/Glasthule DART Station, Thornbury combines suburban tranquillity with immediate access to village life, the seafront and excellent transport links.
Behind its attractive façade lies a beautifully balanced home, thoughtfully designed for modern family living and entertaining. Light-filled, well-proportioned rooms flow effortlessly throughout the ground floor, where the heart of the home is a stunning open-plan kitchen and dining extension, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living.
Upstairs, the home continues to impress with four bedrooms, including a superb principal suite with en-suite bathroom, together with a stylish family bathroom.
The converted attic room (approx. 20 sq.m) provides excellent additional space, ideal as a home office, gym, playroom or guest accommodation.
To the rear, a large west-facing garden offers an exceptional outdoor retreat — perfect for afternoon and evening sun, family life and entertaining. A suntrap patio ensures an ideal setting for 'al fresco' dining on those sunny summer evenings. To the front, off-street parking ensures everyday convenience in this highly prized location.
Tucked away just off Summerhill Road, Thornbury enjoys a quiet, leafy setting while remaining within a stone's throw of Glasthule Village, renowned for its cafés, delicatessens and specialist shops. Dún Laoghaire town centre lies just moments away in the opposite direction, offering a wider array of retail, dining and leisure amenities.
The seafront, with its sailing, swimming and coastal walks, and the beautifully landscaped People's Park, are both only a short stroll from the front door. Some of South County Dublin's premier schools are easily accessible by car or via the nearby DART, making this an outstanding location for families.
Thornbury represents a rare opportunity to acquire a classic yet contemporary detached family home in one of Dublin's most desirable coastal suburbs. Offering space, comfort, garden and parking — combined with proximity to the sea, transport links and vibrant village life — this is a residence of enduring quality and exceptional lifestyle appeal.
