Description
Villa Milano is a spectacular detached home of style and distinction occupying an elevated position overlooking the most breathtaking vistas of Sorrento Terrace, Dalkey Island, Killiney Bay, Bray Head and The Sugarloaf. This stunning property benefits from off street parking for two cars under the shelter of a spacious carport. Steps lead up to the entrance to the property which opens to a large private granite paved terrace that is a complete suntrap benefitting from a southerly orientation.
This is an instantly appealing family home offering wonderfully bright, generously proportioned accommodation of approximately 267 sqm (2,875 sqft). Villa Milano is presented in exceptional decorative order throughout inviting potential purchasers to literally walk in and hang up their coats. Nothing has been left to chance, this magnificent home has been creatively designed under the guidance of POCA (Paul O'Callaghan Architects) and renovated to provide the ultimate in modern living, with superb attention to detail and this calibre of finish rarely, if ever, graces the market.
Briefly the accommodation comprises an entrance lobby leading into the reception hall with cloak hanging storage and guest facilities. A glazed door leads into the stunning kitchen/breakfast room with a solid oak herringbone floor and a top of the range Bulthaup kitchen with Carrera marble worktop and integrated Miele appliances. Next a utility room houses the water cylinder, gas boiler and fuse board along with the washing facilities and door to the rear. The TV Room is a lovely cosy space with feature Faber glazed gas stove, built-in storage, and a vaulted ceiling.
The main Sitting Room spans the entire width of the front of the house and is a stunning room with two large picture windows offering breathtaking views, looking straight out over Killiney Bay, Sorrento Terrace, Dalkey Bray Head and The Sugarloaf. This room has been very tastefully decorated, clad in a rich Cherrywood with bespoke storage. There is wide plank solid oak flooring and a stunning marble fireplace with a gas fired stove. A door opens out to an enclosed dining area ideal for 'al fresco' dining, taking in the beautiful views with an electric awning above
Upstairs there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms each with access to a private balcony, they share a very well-appointed bathroom. The master suite is positioned to the front of the property and enjoys a stunning panoramic tri-aspect vista, off this there is a dressing room and an en suite completes the accommodation at this level.
Dalkey, with its nautical and literary history, has managed to strike exactly the right balance, being largely unchanged and unspoilt by tourism yet offering everything that visitors and locals require. Vico Road is one of the most scenic locations to live in Dalkey with an abundance of natural beauty on its doorstep. Dalkey Heritage Town offers a great array of services and shops to include: a Library, Supermarket, and specialist food shops such as Robert's and Thyme Out. Villa Milano is
directly opposite the Vico Bathing area which is a popular leisure spot for swimming. Dalkey and the surrounding coastline is an area of great natural beauty with scenic walks along the Vico Road and on Killiney Hill. There are excellent public transport links to include the DART, 59 & 7 bus route and the Aircoach providing a direct link with Dublin Airport. This area is very popular with young
families because of the abundance of excellent primary and secondary schools including Holy Child Killiney, Castle Park School, Loreto Abbey Dalkey, Rathdown Co-Ed, Willow Park, Blackrock College, St. Andrew's and St. Michael's. Accommodation
