A House For All Seasons

Elaine’s home is a house that’s perfect for all seasons, situated in a cul-de-sac at the end of Bray’s seafront, it’s certainly a wonderful summer house, but it really comes into its own at Christmas time. The generous sized dining and living room provide plenty of room for a festive lunch with friends and family and the open fire plays a key role in creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, so it’s the perfect house for Christmas festivities. ‘As the house is located so near the seafront, when we have finished our long leisurely lunch there is no excuse for not taking a brisk walk along the beach, it’s all that’s needed to blow the cobwebs away and recharge the batteries to get you into party mode again,’ laughs Elaine.
