What if you owned your own historic fortress along Dublin’s south coast? The Battery is an iconic Georgian military fortress in the south Dublin village of Sandycove, now on the market for €3 million! An incredible building, facing the Irish Sea and offering exceptional views of the coastline!
If money is no object for you, and you love historic buildings, then The Battery could be a great opportunity to treat yourself to your first historic building!
The Battery is an iconic Georgian military building. Built in 1800, its primary purpose was to protect the island from Napoleon’s French fleet.
But since 1995, the site has belonged to a private owner, who acquired it for less than £2,000! More than 25 years later, The Battery is up for sale for the modest sum of 3 million euros.
The building has incredible character, and has been converted into a home. High granite walls line the perimeter of the building, guaranteeing total privacy, while maintaining panoramic views of Dun Laoghaire Pier, Howth, Forty Foot and beyond.
The Battery has 3 bedrooms, a living/dining room, a pass-through lounge and a veranda. It also has a kitchen, bathroom and all modern conveniences. It also has off-street parking and a path leading to the front door from the pedestrian gate.
The icing on the cake: The Battery is surrounded by many other buildings of architectural interest, including the James Joyce Tower and Michael Scott’s iconic home.
In short, if you’re rolling in gold, this operation could well enable you to own a particularly prized historical asset in Ireland!
