This €3.4m Monet-inspired home has breathtaking Killiney Bay views
From the water lily ponds to the fairytale exterior, Giverny is an artist’s paradise.
NAMED FOR, AND inspired by, the work of French painter Claude Monet, Giverny is a beauty, inside and out.
Situated at the edge of Killiney village, the four-bedroom, four-floor home sits on a 1.25 acre site, with mature gardens and a picture-perfect exterior. The property was designed by the architect Paul Brazil in 1996.
Giverny was clearly designed to make the most of the plentiful sea views across Killiney Bay.
Almost all of the rooms are triple aspect, facing towards Dalkey Island and Sorrento Terrace, and as a result, the whole house is bathed in light.
The four bedrooms here are large and elegant, and the master suite has a walk-in wardrobe.
Giverny boasts a study, gym, and wine storage room, as well as a superb kitchen/dining area.
There’s also approved planning permission for a second home, with plans also designed by Brazil, on the grounds, should the new owners wish to double their living space or become landlords.
The real showstopper at Giverny, however, has to be the gardens. Mature plant beds mingle with feature lily ponds on elevated gardens, and the selection of plants here really is second to none – Japanese maples, wedding cake trees, azaleas and old roses provide splashes of colour all year round.
Giverney is located a twenty minute walk away from Killiney village, and a little more to Dalkey. Both towns are famed for their picturesque locations and old-style charm, and are well-serviced by the DART into Dublin city.
Giverny, Marino Avenue East, Killiney, Co Dublin is on sale for €3,450,000 from Sherry FitzGerald Dalkey via Daft.ie.
