Tragara is a smartly-laid-out detached residence on the corner of Nerano Road, an L-shaped route that connects Sorrento Road to Coliemore Road in Dalkey. It boasts bragworthy sea views and while illuminated by the pulse of the Kish bank lighthouse at night offers plenty of privacy.
At its heart the five-bedroom property, which was built in 2003 to a design by Sorrento Road-based Robert J Fowler Associates, is a family home.
Built in the grounds of a period house, the garden features Killiney granite boulders in the garden, where there is also a jacuzzi housed in a timber chalet â the current owner likes to sea swim and uses it to warm up after a bracing dip. The planting includes mature trees, although a few on the windward side have been scalped to better emphasise the sea views from almost all the windows.
