Seafront Home / Blackrock Road | van Dijk Architects
Blackrock / Ireland / 2008
Located on a wonderful site at the edge of a salt marsh looking over Dundalk Bay towards the Cooley Mountains, the form of the house resolves the need for a sunny sheltered private outside space. It acts as a gateway building to Blackrock village, presenting an attractive façade to visitors as they arrive along the coast road from Dundalk.
