Whitby is an impressive bright and spacious 3-bedroom semi-detached home located in one of Bray’s most desirable and tranquil cul-de-sacs, just off the popular Vevay Road. Homes in this quiet cul-de-sac are highly sought after and rarely come to market, often remaining in the same families for generations, reflecting the strong sense of community and the enduring appeal of the location.

Positioned on a generous corner plot, this property offers exceptional potential for extension and modernisation — perfect for families, professionals, or anyone looking to create their dream home by the coast.

Bathed in natural light throughout, the well-balanced accommodation extends to 110 sq.m / 1,184 sq.ft. (excluding the garage), with further potential to convert the attached garage (13.4 sq.m / 144 sq.ft.)—subject to planning permission.
The home briefly comprises an entrance porch, an entrance hallway, two spacious interconnecting reception rooms that run through the house and are ideal for entertaining, a bright kitchen/breakfast room, a utility room, and a WC. Upstairs, there are two equal and generously sized double bedrooms, a large single bedroom, and a family bathroom.
There are lovely views from all the bedrooms of the tennis club and up to Bray Head at the rear, and views towards the two sugarloaf mountains to the front of the property.

Outside, the extensive gardens are a standout feature—separated grass lawn areas that have an array of mature shrubbery and trees, two block-built storage sheds, and ample off-road parking for several vehicles. The large side space offers fantastic scope to extend the property to the side and above the garage, as neighbouring homes have done (subject to planning).

Whitby offers an unbeatable location—set within a quiet, mature residential development that is just steps from Bray Tennis Club and within walking distance to everything the thriving and vibrant seaside town has to offer.

Enjoy a superb selection of cafes, restaurants, shops, schools, sports clubs, and leisure amenities, all nearby. Local attractions include the famous ‘mile long’ Victorian promenade and harbour, Bray Head, Kilruddery House & Gardens, the Powerscourt Estate and more. The town is blessed with good and regular transport links including DART and Dublin Bus services, the N11, whilst the Luas in Cherrywood or Carrickmines are a short drive away and all offer easy access to Dublin and beyond.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a well-located, light-filled home with space to grow, in one of Bray’s most family-friendly neighbourhoods. Early viewing is highly recommended.

Bray is known as the Gateway to the Garden of Ireland, and is the longest established seaside town in the country. It is only 19km (12 miles) south of Dublin City and is easily reached by DART, Train, Bus or the N11 road. There is an attractive beach and a spacious esplanade. The scenic Cliff Walk on the eastern side of Bray Head, which continues, into Greystones offers walkers a feast of views on the way.

The town boasts fine period housing, shops, restaurants and evening entertainment. Also available in the immediate locality are golf courses, tennis, fishing, sailing, and horse riding. Another feature of Bray is the variety of amusement centres and carnival attractions, bowling alley, and nightclubs. It really is a stand-alone town with the additional advantage of being on the doorstep of Dublin.
