Description
Nestled on a beautifully landscaped 0.41-acre site, Moreana is a distinguished detached family home set well back from Ardeevin Road, offering privacy and tranquillity. Boasting dual gated access and a sweeping crescent-shaped gravel forecourt, this residence provides ample off-street parking in a truly elegant setting.
Having undergone a comprehensive renovation in 2012, Moreana is nicely styled and tastefully appointed, seamlessly blending charm with modern luxury. Designed with an exceptional balance of reception and bedroom accommodation, this home exudes light, space at every turn.
Upon entering, you are greeted by a welcoming entrance hall with a guest w.c. The formal drawing and dining room is an impressive space, enhanced by two large picture windows that flood the area with natural light and enjoy sea views. Steps lead to the open-plan kitchen and living area, the heart of the home. This space features: a multi-fuel stove, creating a cozy atmosphere, a bespoke cream-fitted kitchen with striking black granite countertops and large central island and pantry/larder unit for added convenience. This area enjoys access to the beautifully landscaped rear garden.
The main bedroom area is accessed via a private corridor, offering an ideal retreat. This includes: a main bedroom with ensuite, three generously proportioned bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes a dedicated study, perfect for remote work or quiet reading. A stylish family bathroom and a well-equipped utility room.
Additionally, the property includes an integral garage/storage area beneath the house—ideal for extra storage or workspace.
The elevation of the house ensures that it enjoys sea views of Dublin Bay from the front terrace and the majority of rooms overlooking the front garden.
The mature rear gardens are beautifully landscaped with an array of lush plants and shrubs, providing a sense of privacy and seclusion. A spacious paved patio invites you to enjoy alfresco dining while soaking up the benefits of the southerly aspect.
There is a detached garage/shed to the right hand side of the front garden. We believe, given the road frontage, Moreana offers tremendous potential for an additional property subject to necessary planning permission.
Located in the heart of Dalkey, Moreana is just a short stroll from the vibrant village, with its charming shops, gourmet restaurants, cozy cafés, and welcoming pubs. Excellent transport links are at your doorstep, including the DART and bus services, ensuring seamless connectivity to the city and beyond.
Families will appreciate the selection of top-tier primary and secondary schools nearby, including Harold Boys, St. Patrick's, Castle Park, Loreto Dalkey, Holy Child, and Rathdown.
