Daft.ie Daft.ie KILLINEY HAS LONG held a reputation as one of South Dublin’s most high-end addresses. Anyone who has even just visited this coastal enclave will see why. It’s where history, sea air and leafy tranquillity come together in harmony while remaining well-connected to the bustling capital. If Killiney is on your house hunting radar then take a look at 1 Balure. Tucked away behind discreet cast-iron gates, this is a home that certainly belongs to its setting. It exudes regency refinement with every comfort of contemporary design in mind. Daft.ie Daft.ie On arrival, the gravel driveway, edged with manicured planting, sets a stately tone before you even step foot inside. At the back, a south-east facing garden captures morning and midday light. The granite terrace and astro turf lawn promise leisurely brunches, summer barbecues and effortless outdoor entertaining. Privacy is assured by mature trees lining Balure Lane, giving this corner plot the feel of a secluded retreat. Daft.ie Daft.ie Inside, light hits across polished porcelain tiles in a hallway designed to impress. High ceilings, decorative wainscoting and coving hint at elegant bygone eras, but the flow of the ground floor is distinctly modern. Daft.ie Daft.ie The Nolan-designed kitchen enjoys a refined combination of white marble, bespoke cabinetry and professional-grade appliances. A central island, with a wine fridge discreetly integrated, anchors the space. Beyond, the family room opens through French doors onto the garden, blurring the line between inside and out. Daft.ie Daft.ie The more formal reception rooms balance grandeur with warmth. A drawing room with bay window and marble fireplace, a dining space made for hosting dinner and a quieter sitting room that begs to be lit by firelight on winter evenings, make up the spaces. Daft.ie Daft.ie The main suite feels more like a boutique hotel than a suburban bedroom. Spanning the full depth of the house, it combines a large bay window, a custom-fitted dressing room and a bathroom where marble surfaces, a freestanding bath and twin vanities create a spa-like calm. Daft.ie Daft.ie Three further double bedrooms on this level each have their own bathroom. One has clever Jack-and-Jill access, making family living, as well as guest stays, easy. Daft.ie Daft.ie What sets 1 Balure apart is its ability to balance tradition and technology. While the detailing nods to the past, the infrastructure is modern. You can expect underfloor heating, concrete floors for soundproofing, a central vacuum system and solar panels that contribute to an enviable A2 energy rating.
