Zeitlose Eleganz In Einer Privaten, Landschaftlich Gestalteten Oase

Rockmount is an elegant semi-detached, double-fronted period residence which spans three levels and an impressive 273 sq. m (approx. 2,938 sq. ft) of beautifully balanced living and bedroom accommodation. Set well back from the road and offering exceptional privacy, the home is approached through automated iron gates that open onto a generous front garden with parking for up to three cars.

Built in an era celebrated for craftsmanship and architectural charm, the property exudes character throughout. The inviting entrance hall, complete with original varnished timber floors, decorative ceiling coving, ornate cornicing, and a graceful archway, sets the tone for the refined interiors beyond. At hall level, perfect symmetry defines the four reception rooms. To the left, the interconnecting drawing and dining rooms feature polished timber floors, elegant ceiling coving with centre roses, marble fireplaces, and large sash windows overlooking both the front and rear gardens.

To the right of the hallway sit a cosy sitting room with custom entertainment unit and marble fireplace, and a separate family room/home office. A guest w.c. is conveniently positioned on the return.

Upstairs, there are four generous bedrooms. The principal bedroom is ensuite and enjoys sweeping views towards Dalkey and Killiney Hills. The beautifully appointed, fully tiled family bathroom offers a stunning outlook across Dublin Bay to Howth.

The garden level is home to a superb L-shaped kitchen/breakfast/living area - the true heart of the home. The Alno cream kitchen features granite countertops, a peninsula island and a full array of modern conveniences. The adjoining living space opens through French doors onto a private, sun-filled patio and, in turn, to the front garden. This level also includes a contemporary shower room and an exceptionally spacious laundry room, which enjoys direct access to the garden.

The wonderfully private rear garden is split-level in design and thoughtfully landscaped. Two paved patio areas offer ideal spaces for morning coffee or evening entertaining, with the rear patio capturing the last of the day’s sunshine. The lawn is bordered by beautifully planted beds featuring Hydrangea Annabelle, mature shrubs, and trees set against a striking granite wall backdrop. A sleek, modern garden shed provides ample storage for bicycles and outdoor furniture.
