Description
Kitestown is a scenic rural road merging Thormanby with Balkill road as it crosses the old tram-line, just above the village of Howth.
This is rural Howth at its finest. Surrounded by scenic walks populated by mature trees and very much part of the nature here yet among neighbouring homes, close to village life and within a short stroll of local shops and a great pub, the Summit Inn. The elevated position commands spectacular views from most rooms down towards Ireland's eye and Lambay Islands beyond the village below. Living here is convenience, in peace and quiet, interrupted by occasional birdsong such is the advantage of sharing surroundings with nature.
At 2,240 Sq Ft / 208 M2, Kalivez is a comfortable period home with elegant generous proportions, tall ceilings, antique features, adorable nooks and crannies and a delightful sense of serenity throughout its meandering interior.
The fine entrance hall leads to two spectacular reception rooms, each with fireplaces and both with stunning views and from which steps via French doors lead down to the lawned garden below. A third reception room currently a home office is off the other side of the hall while the sunny kitchen dining space is particularly homely, and off which is a warm secluded courtyard, a perfect sun trap in a private outside space.
A delicate staircase leads to the first floor landing off which are 4 of the 5 bedrooms and the main family bathroom. The main bedroom suite is an impressive size, a mirror of the finest reception room below with a beautiful bay window revealing that breathtaking view over Ireland's Eye and the mountains of Mourne beyond.
