KILLINEY €1.1 MILLION:FANCY A slice of the Mediterranean in south county Dublin? On a good day, the gorgeous sea views at Brugh na Carraige, on Glenalua Road in Killiney, a five-bedroom detached property on 0.7 of an acre, make you feel as if you were looking out at Europe's big blue.

The property is set high on a hill and has elevated sea views of of Killiney Bay. Measuring 278sq m (2,992 sq ft), the house is asking €1.1 million through agents Sherry FitzGerald

The villa-style house was extended and remodelled in 1994 by its current owner. It is set over three floors, with the living rooms on the top floor. You enter at hall level on the third floor into a double-height space with solid oak floors. There’s a cloakroom with double doors leading through to a big open plan sittingroom in which sliding floor-to-ceiling windows open onto a wrap-around balcony.

The sittingroom leads through to a diningroom. The kitchen is to the rear of the diningroom and has views out over Killiney Hill. A set of steps takes you down to where two of the five double bedrooms are located. There is also a bathroom and a family room with access to another balcony with sea views on this level.

At garden level there is another big sittingroom that opens onto the very mature garden with lawn, flower beds and mature trees. It feels extremely private.

The fifth double bedroom is at garden level. There is also a separate shower room. There is a wine cellar, also, on this floor.
