Tucked away in the peaceful cul-de-sac of St. Begnet’s Villas, just off Hyde Road in Dalkey, stands Number 25 — a home that beautifully blends mid-century character with contemporary comfort. Built in 1955, this three-bedroom end of terrace property has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated by its current owner, resulting in a house that feels both timeless and inviting.


From the moment you arrive, No. 25 exudes charm. A gravel driveway with off-street parking for two cars leads up to the property, bordered by a neat lawn and mature planting that hints at the care taken both inside and out. The home’s solid, textured façade gives way to interiors that are bright, calm, and full of personality.
Inside, the sense of warmth and proportion is immediately apparent. The entrance hall, with its under-stairs storage, opens into a generous sitting room that runs the full width of the house. This elegant space, with polished timber floors and a feature fireplace, provides the perfect setting for both family life and quiet relaxation. Adjacent to the living room lies a dining area with a solid fuel stove. Steps lead down to the kitchen, which forms the heart of the home. Bathed in natural light from two large windows that frame views of the garden, the kitchen is fitted with classic cabinetry and marble-effect worktops that marry practicality with understated elegance. The overall effect is one of openness and ease — a room that encourages cooking, conversation, and connection.


Upstairs, the sense of comfort continues. There are three well-proportioned bedrooms — two doubles and one single — each filled with natural light and offering views of either the front or rear gardens. The family bathroom completes the upper level, featuring a traditional cast iron bath that adds a touch of vintage charm to this thoughtfully finished home.


Outside, the property reveals another of its treasures: a mature and private rear garden measuring approximately 15.5 metres by 9.5 metres. With its leafy backdrop and generous proportions, the garden provides a peaceful retreat as well as ample space for outdoor dining, children’s play, or future extension, subject to planning permission. The additional side garden further enhances the sense of space and potential, making this home as practical as it is beautiful.
