A once in a generation coastal opportunity! Occupying an exceptional position in one of Monkstown’s most sought-after coastal locations, Bella Vista, 48 & 48A Seapoint Avenue enjoys breathtaking views across Dublin Bay. Set on approximately 0.2 acres with an impressive 70 metres (230 feet) of road frontage and the rare advantage of two separate vehicular entrances onto Seapoint Avenue, this is a property of remarkable scale, flexibility and immense potential.

Seldom does an opportunity of this scale and versatility come to the market in such a highly regarded residential location. Bella Vista represents a rare opportunity, combining a substantial site, spectacular elevated sea views and exceptional refurbishment or development potential, subject to the necessary planning permission.

Currently arranged as two self-contained residences, the property provides generous and versatile accommodation across two levels. Whether restored and reimagined as a magnificent family home, retained as two independent dwellings or considered for future development, Bella Vista offers an exciting opportunity to create something truly special in one of South County Dublin’s most established and desirable neighbourhoods.

Bella Vista is a home defined by its views. The upper residence is perfectly positioned to maximise the spectacular setting. A generous terrace immediately introduces the breathtaking outlook across Dublin Bay before leading into elegant accommodation extending to approx. 220 sqm (2,368 sqft) filled with natural light. The principal living room is a delightful dual-aspect space where corner windows frame uninterrupted sea views stretching across Dublin Bay, while four spacious bedrooms enjoy the same captivating coastal backdrop across the rooftops of Brighton Vale. A separate sitting room, well-appointed kitchen with breakfast area, utility room, family bathroom and guest WC complete the accommodation on this level. Above, a large floored and insulated attic offers exceptional additional storage and future potential.

The ground floor residence mirrors the generous proportions above, comprising a spacious living room opening into a sun room overlooking the gardens, three well-proportioned bedrooms, a kitchen and breakfast room, shower room and guest WC. The flexible layout lends itself perfectly to multi-generational living, guest accommodation or rental income while also offering obvious scope for comprehensive refurbishment.

Bella Vista occupies an exceptionally wide and prominent site that is almost impossible to replicate in today’s market. Mature boundaries provide privacy while the elevated rear aspect captures some of the finest coastal views available in Monkstown. The gardens feature a patio and lawn areas, mature planting, ample off-street parking and, most notably, a second gated vehicular entrance from Seapoint Avenue - a rare attribute that significantly enhances the property’s versatility and future possibilities. 

The combination of site size, extensive frontage, dual access and spectacular outlook creates an exceptional opportunity for refurbishment, extension or potential redevelopment, subject to planning permission. Properties offering this level of potential in such a coveted location are exceptionally rare.
