26 Howth Lodge, Howth, Dublin 13, D13RH27

At c.2,000 sq ft, within a building dating from the mid-1800's overlooking Claremont Beach, it is fair to state this luxurious home is unique and rather special. When Cosgrove developments created their award winning Howth Lodge, it was required to restore the original listed buildings which are both rich in history and of significant architectural note. This villa style home comprises most of the ground floor of what was originally the summer residence of the Viceroy of Ireland. Exquisite features and fine details include crystal chandeliers, bespoke timber joinery, high ceilings, decorative plaster coving, double glazed sash windows and herringbone oak flooring, all of which are beautifully presented in immaculate condition. All of the modern conveniences one would desire in a new home are seamlessly blended with the original to form a home of remarkable character in a dreamy beach side setting with wonderful seascape views. Naturally bright rooms are decorated in soft delicate tones with large window spaces and folding French doors leading to sunny outside terraces. The views over Claremont beach gaze towards Irelands eye and are enjoyed from within and from the warm sunny terrace. Both car parking spaces are conveniently located near its own front door and a handy lock up store and direct beach access are some of the features that set this home apart from all others. A seemingly endless choice of restaurants, pubs, cafes and local shopping in Howth village is available within a leisurely beach stroll from here and the nearby Dart station offers easy access to the city. Howth Lodge is exclusive, and no 26 is as sophisticated a home as one could wish for, yet the casual lazy beach side location has the ability to instantly calm the senses with its constant lingering ambience of easy living. Whether you are a wearer of Manolo Blahnik's or sandals, Churches or flip flops, this Howth Lodge home offers the best of both worlds.
