Description
JB Kelly is pleased to present Bergheim, a distinctive coastal residence set on an elevated site of approximately 0.66 acres along one of Howth’s most scenic and sought-after coastal locations.
Positioned within sight of the Baily Lighthouse and surrounded by unspoilt wild space, this is a rare offering in a quiet, almost rural setting despite its proximity to Dublin City. The property sits on a rectangular site bordered by mature hedging, with a natural environment rich in wildlife and birdlife, creating a peaceful and private atmosphere.
The house is designed to maximise light and outlook, with large windows capturing ever-changing sea views and natural light from all aspects. Accommodation comprises two reception rooms, a kitchen, utility room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The main living areas are bright and well proportioned, with strong visual connections to the surrounding gardens and seascape.
The site extends to approximately 0.66 acres and offers clear and obvious potential for further development or extension, subject to planning permission. This will be of particular interest to purchasers seeking to create a larger contemporary home in a prime coastal location, in line with nearby high-value properties.
Howth Village is a short distance away and provides a wide range of amenities including the harbour, restaurants, cafés and local shops. The area is well served by DART and bus routes, offering straightforward access to the city centre. There is also an excellent selection of primary and secondary schools nearby, together with a range of sporting and leisure facilities including golf, sailing and well-known coastal and hill walks. Dublin Airport is within approximately 20 minutes’ drive and the city centre can be reached within 30 minutes.
Bergheim represents a rare opportunity to acquire a private home on a substantial site in one of Dublin’s most prestigious coastal locations, combining natural surroundings, exceptional views and significant potential for future enhancement.

The outdoor space at Bergheim is a defining feature of the property, extending to approximately 0.66 acres and offering a private, mature setting with a strong connection to the surrounding landscape. A brick-paved driveway provides ample parking for several cars together with a convenient turning area, while two side entrances allow easy access from front to rear.

The grounds themselves are rich in planting and biodiversity, with a natural habitat that attracts bees, birds and a variety of wildlife from across the Hill of Howth.
