CARRAIG MEWS, Strand Road, Killiney is an unusual mews house on the sea that was last for sale in 2007 for €1.8 million.

Situated alongside a laneway that leads down to the beach, and with the Dart station nearby, the house has come back on the market through Douglas Newman Good at €695,000.

From the front it looks like a bijoux beach house with timber porthole windows but it’s not as little as it first appears – at 111sq m (1,200sq ft) – and it extends quite a way back.

Carraig Mews has three bedrooms, a livingroom, an open-plan kitchen/diningroom with views over Killiney Bay and the main bedroom is en suite.

The overall look is neutral and bright with timber floors and spot lighting. There are floor-to-ceiling windows in the kitchen with sea views.

As well as its own private access to the beach, it has off-street parking to the front in a gravelled forecourt. There’s also a lane providing access to the side of the house. At the bottom of the east-facing rear garden there’s a a raised deck with views towards Bray Head. There’s also a shed.
