Description
Beaumont Lodge is a unique and truly exceptional, detached, ultra-contemporary residence (168 sq.m. approx.) occupying a secluded site in this convenient location. This high-end project was completed in 2021, designed by DUA Architects under the guidance of Darragh Breathnach, the award winning founder and principle – all under the watchful eye and exacting standards required by the current owners. The architecture in this home is timeless, complementing the peaceful garden setting and possesses flexibility of internal arrangement, clean lines, light filled airiness and all the creature comforts of a modern and practical family home which has been featured in an RIAI exhibition. Viewing is essential to fully appreciate this very special residence, which has been remodeled, extended and transformed to a remarkable standard with no expense spared. The original cottage was retained and now houses three double bedrooms - one with en-suite. A new contemporary extension to the rear of the site is now home to a spectacular open plan kitchen, dining and living areas. This is connected to the original cottage via a centrally located link corridor which incorporates an inner courtyard, bathroom, utility room and plant room. This link corridor forms an external south facing courtyard between the new and the old. Beaumont Lodge enjoys immense privacy with electric gates giving access to ample off street parking to the front with a wide side entrance leading to the south facing courtyard style garden and past to the rear garden with access to the detached, flexible home office/ playroom.

The cottage appears simple and understated to the passerby - finished in a white render with steel reveals framing each of the window openings, concealed gutters and downpipes reinforce this simplicity. Internally a simple pallet of materials; stone, brick, timber, brass and bespoke minimal detailing achieve a serene atmosphere, and produce a perfect place to relax. Strategically placed sky lights ensure that every part of this single storey home is bright and airy. The custom-made furniture and joinery maintain the flow throughout the house, so as not to distract from the sense of calm and uncluttered feeling that the cottage strives to achieve.

In the main cottage the external walls have been stripped back internally to expose the original granite walls - a most attractive feature. To emphasize the simplicity of the cottage form, new vaulted ceilings were installed and the plentiful storage areas and services were located within a central spine of white joinery. Clever use of triangular mirrors above the custom built wardrobes were utilized to reflect the vaulted ceiling.
