ON FIRST GLANCE, Graymoor looks like two separate houses, but look closely, and you’ll spot the entrance screen linking the buildings.

Spanning an impressive 300 sq m/3,230 sq ft, the four-bedroom home, designed by architect Gavin Buggy, is a futuristic space nestled on Loreto Avenue, a five minute stroll from the quaint village of Dalkey.

Graymoor is a masterclass in modern design, featuring large, glazed windows, artfully lit bridges and courtyard areas throughout.

A bespoke kitchen, clad in Carrara marble and featuring high-tech appliances aplenty, dominates the ground floor, along with a beautiful dining area and relaxed lounge.

The four bedrooms are located on the first floor, each with discreet wardrobes to maximise a feeling of spaciousness. The master bedroom is impressively large and bright, with an en-suite marble bathroom hidden behind a secret door.

However, the real star of the property is the fully glazed observatory, situated on the roof. From here, the sea views are panoramic, but it’s not just set up for admiring nature.

The observatory is also a great space for dining, entertaining or just relaxing. For enthusiastic foodies, there’s a hidden wine cooler and mini fridge, too.

Graymoor is located just a five-minute walk from Dalkey, at one of Ireland’s most desirable addresses. Dalkey is home to plenty of amenities: shops, cafés and restaurants abound, and you’re 40 minutes from the city centre by car or DART.
