Nestled a stone's throw from the heart of charming Dalkey village, Koti offers an unparalleled canvas to create one of the finest contemporary homes in the country. Access via a tree lined private lane and set on .25 acres the tranquil setting boasts unparalleled vistas of Dublin Bay to the East, Mulgins lighthouse to the West and a large south facing back garden. The property comes with full planning permission (D22B/0116) to transform this residence into a 311m² (3,346ft²) upside-down house, maximizing its proximity to the sea and surrounding beauty.
Designed by ODAA and influenced by renowned Australian architect Luigi Roselli, the approved renovation features five bedrooms (two en-suite), an office, utility room, boot room, family bathroom, and an expansive open-plan first floor with two living spaces, a modern kitchen, and dining area. Sliding panels offer flexibility to divide the spaces into rooms as desired. Floor-to-ceiling glazing opens to spacious, sheltered balconies which seamlessly blend indoor-outdoor living. The lower basement level is primed to become a gym but could also be used as a den or home office/studio with own-door access.
Originally built in 1978 the property measures 205m2 (2,200ft2). The existing property as it stands will require work to bring it up to modern standards. Accommodation consists of entrance hall, living/dining room, kitchen, five bedrooms (two ensuite) bathroom and utility. There is also a basement garage for two cars. The rear garden is south-west facing and positioned on .25 acres. The grounds are completely private, secured to the front by electric security gates with off street parking for approximately four cars (six to include the 2 car basement garage).
Located in picturesque Dalkey town, a heritage town, which has Dalkey Castle and Heritage Centre as its focal point. The town centre is 4 mins walking distance and where one can enjoy a good selection of restaurants, bars and cafes. Shopping includes a butchers shop, a fish shop, delicatessen, numerous coffee shops, health food shop, craft shop, newsagents, a general grocery store, a wine shop, off-licence and assorted artisan shops and weekly market. The DART train railway can be accessed in the town, giving access to Dublin city centre within about 30 minutes commute.
