Set amidst 0.9 of an acre of mature, landscaped gardens, Larkfield is an exceptional family residence extending to approximately 295 sq. m. (3,175 sq. ft.). Positioned on the highly sought-after Balure Lane, a discreet laneway off Church Road, this elegant home offers a rare sense of seclusion in one of South County Dublin’s most prestigious addresses.

A sweeping driveway sets the tone for the tranquillity and grandeur that lie beyond. Larkfield has been lovingly extended and immaculately maintained, marrying timeless character with its substantial footprint and enviable location.

Inside, the home is defined by classical proportions, elegant detailing, and interiors that are both refined and welcoming. The principal reception rooms are gracious, bright, and ideal for entertaining. The traditional drawing room, enjoying a dual aspect and centred around a handsome fireplace, provides a warm and sophisticated focal point. On the opposite side of the hall is the dining room with a door through to the study and in turn connects to the breakfast room, living room and kitchen catering effortlessly to both family life and formal occasions. An inner lobby off the kitchen opens to the rear garden and connects to the utility/laundry room, pantry and cloakroom/guest w.c. Upstairs, four generously appointed bedrooms provide comfort and serenity, each one tastefully decorated and finished to a high standard. The main suite is particularly impressive, enjoying picturesque views across the manicured gardens to the front. Throughout the home, an atmosphere of calm sophistication prevails, underpinned by a cohesive design palette and quality finishes.

The grounds at Larkfield are a true sanctuary. Carefully cultivated over several decades, the gardens are framed by mature trees and sweeping lawns, with colour and texture thoughtfully layered throughout. An enchanting garden room offers an idyllic setting for al fresco dining or quiet reflection, as does the raised Indian sandstone patio with its patio heater and generous awning. Beyond the formal planting, a once lively tennis court now lies gently overgrown, offering an exciting opportunity for restoration or reinvention within the landscape. A series of discreet outbuildings and storage sheds provide valuable functionality without compromising the garden’s enduring charm.

The location is as distinguished as the property itself. Killiney is widely regarded as one of Dublin’s most desirable suburbs, celebrated for its coastal beauty, heritage charm, and exceptional quality of life. Just 13 kilometres from Dublin City Centre, Larkfield enjoys easy access to an array of local amenities, including boutique shops and a choice of renowned primary and secondary schools.

Transport connections are superb. The M50 and N11 are close at hand, ensuring swift access to the city and beyond. The LUAS at Cherrywood and the nearby DART station at Killiney offer convenient and reliable commuting options, whether for business or leisure.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, the surrounding area is rich in natural attractions. Killiney Hill and Beach offer spectacular views and scenic walking trails, while the heritage village of Dalkey, just 3.5 kilometres away, is home to artisan stores, gourmet restaurants, and a vibrant cultural scene. Dun Laoghaire, a short drive away, offers further amenities including a bustling harbour, a public library, and the iconic Forty Foot bathing area.

Recreational pursuits are well catered for in this exclusive location. Sailing, tennis, rugby, cricket, and equestrian sports are all easily accessible, while golf enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to Killiney Golf Club, located adjacent to the property, as well as several world-class courses nearby, including Powerscourt, Castle Golf Club, and the prestigious Druids Glen.
