A secluded, south-facing gem at the foot of Killiney Hill.
Completely surrounded by an array of mature hedgerow and soaring trees, Lios Na Mara is a hidden, detached property bursting with character, in one of South Dublin’s most sought after locations.

The light-filled, detached home stands on almost half an acre of award-winning gardens and makes the most of its south-facing position with two beautifully kept lawns to the front and rear, triple aspect windows and as many as five double doors opening out to a private spectacle of colour and a perimeter BBQ deck and verandah.

Completely renovated in 2004, the house extends to approximately 290sq.m (3,122sq.ft) features walnut flooring, a 4-door Aga, travertine marble floors, granite worktops and bespoke walnut kitchen, pure wool carpets and a selection of bright bedrooms and bathrooms, some of which enjoy views over Dublin Bay.

Approached by a sweeping gravel driveway behind electric gates, the house is adjoined by a sizable garage and lean-to adding even more parking room to the ample space outside.

An open fireplace on arrival adds a sense of occasion to the entrance hall. Solid walnut flooring reaches to each doorway; the living room, the den, the ensuite guestroom, the concealed pantry and the open plan kitchen / breakfast area with adjacent WC.

Upstairs leads to the remaining four bedrooms, the master of which is ensuite. The two bathrooms upstairs feature marble-tiled power showers – while a clever study nook serves as its own sequestered quiet space, ideal for those working from home.

Lios na Mara sits close to the top of Saval Park Road, one of the most desirable addresses in the area. It is a short, picturesque stroll to the seaside, heritage town of Dalkey, where you can find a bustling range of cafes, restaurants, pubs and boutiques. Both Barnhill and Killiney Stores are within striking distance of the house from opposite directions, each offering a selection of gourmet food, baked goods, coffee and wine.

The walking mecca Killiney Hill Park is quite literally, on the front doorstep while a number of famous swimming spots are within walking distance: Coliemore Harbour, Hawk Cliff, Killiney beach and slightly further, the 40ft and Sandycove beach.

There are excellent public transport links to include Glenageary and Dalkey DART Stations, the 59 and 7 bus route together with the Aircoach at the neighbouring Fitzpatrick’s Castle Hotel providing a direct route to Dublin Airport. The house will certainly appeal to families who are looking to get a foothold in the area because of its proximity to excellent primary and secondary schools including Killiney/Glenageary National School, St. Joseph of Cluny, Loreto Abbey Dalkey, Rathdown, Castlepark and Holy Child Killiney.
