Der Hafen

Set amidst approximately six acres of private grounds in one of Dublin’s most coveted coastal locations, The Haven is a residence of exceptional distinction, offering a rare blend of scale, seclusion and breathtaking natural beauty.

Extending to over 4,000 sq. Ft. (382sqm), this substantial family home commands a truly privileged setting, where panoramic views and complete privacy combine to create an atmosphere more reminiscent of a country estate than a Dublin address. Enveloped by mature grounds and enjoying an extraordinary sense of tranquility, The Haven provides a sanctuary of remarkable peace, while remaining just moments from the vibrant heart of Howth Village.

Opportunities to acquire a home of this calibre are exceptionally rare. The Haven offers not only extensive accommodation and six acres of private grounds, but the luxury of space, discretion and uninterrupted views—qualities that have become increasingly difficult to secure within Dublin’s premium residential market.

Complementing the principal residence is a self-contained two-bedroom guest house, providing invaluable flexibility for multi-generational living, visiting family and friends, independent accommodation for older children, or live-in support. This versatility, increasingly sought after by discerning international buyers, enhances both the practicality and enduring value of the property.

For those returning to Ireland or relocating to Dublin for senior executive appointments, the lifestyle on offer is second to none. Howth has long been regarded as one of the capital’s most desirable addresses, celebrated for its dramatic coastal scenery, rich maritime heritage and unique village atmosphere. The picturesque harbour remains the focal point of village life, while the area’s celebrated sailing tradition and marina provide exceptional amenities for boating enthusiasts.

Golfers are equally well served, with a selection of renowned championship courses nearby, offering outstanding facilities in beautiful surroundings. Families will also appreciate the excellent choice of highly regarded private and public schools within easy reach, making The Haven as compelling a proposition for family life as it is for professional convenience.

Howth’s culinary reputation is among the finest in Ireland. The village is particularly renowned for its outstanding seafood restaurants, where freshly landed local catch is served against the backdrop of the working harbour and Irish Sea. Alongside these acclaimed dining destinations are stylish cafés, artisan food producers and independent boutiques that contribute to the sophisticated yet relaxed character that defines village life.

Despite its remarkable privacy and sense of retreat, connectivity is effortless. Dublin City Centre is within easy reach, allowing convenient access to the country’s principal financial, commercial and cultural institutions, while Dublin Airport is just a short drive away, ensuring seamless international travel for those whose careers demand a global outlook.

The Haven represents a genuinely exceptional offering: a substantial family residence of over 4,000 sq. ft., complemented by a two-bedroom guest apartment, set within approximately six acres of private grounds and enjoying spectacular views in one of Ireland’s most prestigious coastal locations.

It is a home that offers more than accommodation. It offers a way of life defined by privacy, beauty and space; by the pleasures of the sea and village life; and by the reassurance of remaining connected to everything that matters. In an increasingly busy world, The Haven stands apart as a place to arrive, to entertain, to raise a family and, above all, to belong.
