4 Golf Lane, Torquay Road, Foxrock, Dublin 18

Tallon House, 4 Golf Lane, Foxrock, Dublin 18 DESCRIPTION Tallon House is without doubt a truly unique property. This simple steel and glass house was designed as a single-span structure, giving clear uninterrupted internal spaces. The entire original house is glazed to the north and south with continuous full height sliding glass panels, set back from the steel frame to create a continuous timber terrace on both sides of the house. The view to the north is over the golf course and south view is to the Dublin mountains. The original house has been twice extended. The first extension consists of an ensuite dressing room and bathroom added to the bedrooms at both ends and later a studio was added to the west gable of the house. The studio follows the original details of the house in all respects, with iroko terrace and sliding aluminium framed windows. Internal partitions provide screening and definition to the various living and sleeping zones, further complimented by side walls of glass running the full length on both sides creating a plan of surprising simplicity. Full height sliding pocket doors provide privacy when required. The design is linear providing clean lines and an overall serenity, every room having at least one wall of full height glass which makes the unique experience of living in direct contact with its exceptional garden. The gardens and ground of Tallon House are totally private. A tree lined gravelled driveway opens up to a large gravelled turning circle revealing mature trees and a large expanse of lawns revealing just the gable wall of Tallon House. To the north is a fern garden and herb deck and a copper hedge provides the boundary with the golf course. Located beside the Foxrock Golf Club, Tallon house is approx. 12km from Stephen's Green and only a short stroll from Foxrock Village.
