FERNSIDE, a large detached house on almost two acres of grounds overlooking the sea at Killiney, is back on the market through Knight Frank.

Agent Robin Palmer is seeking €7.5 million for the five-bedroom house which once belonged to former motor racing driver Damon Hill.

The two-storey over basement house in a cul-de-sac off Killiney Hill Road has three reception rooms including a grand drawingroom with tall sash windows overlooking Killiney Bay.

Close to the Canadian embassy residence, it has been rented out in recent years and while it's in good structural order, it would now benefit from some updating.
