Malahide: from €1.4m: A new show house opens this week at Chamley Park, a small million-plus development of houses in Malahide. This new estate is off Swords Road, opposite the junction of Estuary Road and is a few minute's drive from the village.

Joint agents Sherry FitzGerald New Homes and Kevin Flanagan Estates are taking bookings for the last three five-bedroom houses, which have 251sq m (2,700sq ft) of living space and a top quality specification. Water-resistant bathroom plasma screens are just one of the touches of opulence that will appeal.

Prices for two of the houses are set at €1.4 million and €1.45 million, with a price tag of €1.59 million for the expensively furnished show house.

Malahide is a firm favourite with well-off Dubliners, who love its combination of sports and social amenities and convenience to the airport.

Little has been spared in the general fit-out at Chamley Park. There are custom-designed Mirari kitchens in cream with matt-black worktops and Kupper Bush appliances, including an American-style refrigerator, oven, hob, extractor, microwave, coffee-maker and dishwasher, all in brushed steel. Slotted into Mirari units in the utility are a washing machine and dryer.

Bathrooms are where it's at these days when it comes to design and those at Chamley Park will not disappoint. The family bathroom has a whirlpool corner bath and separate shower, while the full ensuite bathroom includes a corner bath, steam shower/sauna and waterproof plasma screen.

Plasma screens, cinema and surround sound are also in the drawingroom and a sittingroom off the main bedroom.

The layout of the three houses is practical. A wide hallway opens to a sittingroom, which moves through to a diningroom and a sun room accessing the garden. The kitchen also links with the diningroom. Three of the four bedrooms are off the first-floor landing, with a main bedroom suite on the top floor.

Developer O'Mahony Finnerty specialises in small high-end schemes, with previous projects in Sandymount, Ballsbridge, Clontarf and several one-off houses in Galway and Mayo.
