The SeaGreen Kitchen: The Heart Of Your Family Home

A couple of decades ago, the design trend for kitchens was to make them as small and utilitarian as possible, often hidden from the dining and living spaces in houses. However, now we think differently. Modern life revolves around the kitchen, and it is now the centrepiece of the family home.

We strongly appreciate the importance of the kitchen in family life, which is why we build our  houses for sale in Greystones to really showcase that living space where the family spends most of its time together, and focus on providing very detailed design considerations and features to make this room as spacious, useful, comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

The beautiful houses in the SeaGreen development situated in a perfect location by the sea in Greystones offer so much in the way of comfortable living, numerous outdoor activities for all the family, and easy commutes to Dublin city centre and the surrounding towns and facilities, but home is where the whole family returns to, and the kitchen is usually the first and last stop of the day.

It’s where the family gathers to cook, eat, talk about their plans for the day or what they got up to at work, at the nearby schools or out and about in the town, so it needs to be perfect. You can see how much of a focus we have put into the kitchen area of all our houses here, from our three-bed Portland (pictured below) to our four-bed Wyndham (second picture below) and Bellevue (main picture above) and five-bed Somerby houses.

We are currently working with our dedicated team on our exciting upcoming phase to make sure that the kitchen remains a priority when we turn these houses into perfect homes, and our upcoming show house features beautiful and elegant kitchen areas that make sure this is not just a space to cook in, but where the family can gather and enjoy the SeaGreen life.

Here, we offer a sneak preview blueprints of what we are planning for this upcoming phase, and we can’t wait to show it to you.

As you can see, ample room is provided in these kitchens to enable the whole family to gather, with the centre island providing room where everyone can sit, eat and chat away from the cooking area – a perfect accompaniment to the home’s separate dining area. The kitchen includes a top-quality oven and microwave and a beautifully designed preparation area, so that it becomes another living space within the home.

Finished with the highest quality fittings and features, these kitchens are, as with all SeaGreen homes, highly-energy-efficient, meaning your energy bills will be kept extremely low, and are sleek and beautifully designed to give a homely yet modern feel that will offer all you need to make this very important part of your home the perfect place to be.

Glass doors will lead out to the back garden so that on perfect days in Greystones you can open these and extend your living space, and allowing the sea air to bring a freshness to the home, just as you can with our high-spec balcony windows that give you that penthouse feel in your family home.

You can see the beautiful interiors we dedicate ourselves to creating in all of the houses at SeaGreen in the video below:

Outdoor Eateries to Enjoy the Summer Sun When You Own a New Home at SeaGreen Gate in Greystones

As summer has well and truly arrived and we enjoy the soaring temperatures, there’s no better place to be than Greystones. This  perfect location offers an array of  water-based activities to keep cool, as well as great scenic walks that help you enjoy  an active lifestyle, not to mention the  beautiful beaches and harbour area. But as a culinary hotspot, this thriving town also offers a variety of eateries with outdoor seating, where you can relax and socialise with friends and family, and get a tasty snack while you soak up the sun. Here’s a few of our favourite spots for homeowners who live a stone’s throw away at SeaGreen Gate.

The Happy Pear

The Happy Pear is one of the most well-known eateries in the town, made famous by the Flynn brothers Dave and Steve, who with a little help from their family, have developed what was a fruit and veg shop into one of Ireland’s best-loved health food eateries.

There are a few small tables out front at the Church Road café (they also have one at the Shoreline), but it is out the back where most sun-lovers venture to try the exotic and locally-grown fare. It’s great to sit out here and relax in the sun while tempting your taste buds with some sweet potato fritters, baked miso aubergine, vegan pies or refreshing salads and vegetarian soups. This is healthy food at its best, and is great to enjoy while soaking up the sun and enjoying the fresh air.

The Happy Pear also offers a guilt-free takeaway menu, so you can enjoy a healthy and delicious meal to bring home to your four-bedroom  Wilde, the  Beckett or the  Yeats house at SeaGreen Gate.

The Beach House

Talking of Greystones institutions, for many people who stroll along  the Cliff Walk, the first port of call once they arrive in Greystones is The Beach House, a lovely pub and restaurant right by the harbour. This family owned spot has been here since 1850 and continues to prove popular with locals and visitors.

There is an a la carte menu from Monday to Saturday, with food also served on Sundays, but one of the best things about this Greystones institution is the lovely outdoor seating area where you can dig into the tasty food while enjoying a refreshing drink and the beautifully sunny weather.

Las Tapas

Sampling delicious plates of food under the sun brings to mind holidays in Spain, and tapas is the perfect snack for the summer.

At Las Tapas on Church Road, you can order from the long list of Spanish delicacies and specialities, from breads and olives to chicken with salsa to spicy meatballs, to paella and chorizo, there is something here to satisfy every taste, and while the interior is lovely, in the summer it’s great to sit outside and enjoy the sun while watching the world go by.

The Three Qs

Staying on the continent, The Three Qs offers breakfast brunch and evening menus cooked up by brothers Brian, Colin and Paul Quinn. With a Spanish, French and Italian leaning, this cosy and friendly little restaurant is considered one of the finest in Greystones, and you may have to move fast to secure one of the few tables outside.

Once you do though, the food is great, with the breakfast menu offering porridge, croque monsieur, French toast and croissants, and the evening menu including everything from Spanish fish stew with chorizo to lamb shanks to good old fish and chips.

Bochellis

Also on Church Road you can find Bochellis, an Italian restaurant with a number of outdoor tables. There’s a large menu of pizza and pasta dishes, as well as a few chef’s specialities that include fillet of beef wrapped in Italian ham, veal escalopes and chicken in red wine and tomato sauce, but when  summer is here it is always a good idea to try a fresh fish dish.

From fresh mussels in chili, garlic and tomato sauce, to calamari rings to penne with prawns and mussels and fresh and smoked salmon in white wine sauce, there’s plenty here to give you that seaside feel as you bask in the sun.

Tramyard Kitchen

The outdoor seating at the front of Tramyard Kitchen gets some really great sunshine during the summer, so it’s a great place to settle down and enjoy the heat while digging into a burger, pizza, fish dish or steak.

They also have a very long wine list to choose from, so you can while away the long summer days sampling a refreshing tipple while the sun shines down on you and your family or friends.

Spendlove

Everybody loves an ice cream when the sun is shining, and at Spendlove, they offer really great cold treats that will help you stay cool. They also have very good coffee and snacks, but what better way to enjoy the summer sun than to sit and take your time over a delicious ice cream at the outdoor seating area here on Trafalgar Square overlooking the new marina? Or maybe you would prefer to take your ice cream away and enjoy it as you stroll along the harbour?

The number and range of quality eateries with outdoor seating that let you enjoy the summer sun while you dine is just one more reason why Greystones is such a great place to live. All of these culinary delights are just a few minutes away from the development of beautiful new homes at SeaGreen Gate, so if you are one of the owners of these luxurious and family-friendly houses, you can enjoy that al fresco summer dining feeling within a short walk from your home.
