Lorraine Keane sells Monkstown mansion 7 years after first going on sale

Lorraine Keane has sold her family home in Monkstown seven years after first putting the property on sale.

Keane and her husband, Peter Devlin, lived in a Victorian manor in the coastal town for over 20 years before it sold in September 2025.

Lorraine and Peter originally put their home on the market in 2019, and told EVOKE at the time that one of the main reasons they were looking to move was to find something smaller, as their home was "ridiculously too big".

They then took their property off the market and were pleased that their family stayed put and didn't downsize before the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Now, we're in no hurry to leave. Unless something comes up in the area that is a smaller version of what we have, we’ll stay where we are because we all love it," she previously said.

So, the new Blackrock home must've really tickled their fancy, as they packed up, sold their house in September, and moved into their new place.

According to the Property Price Register, Lorraine's former pad, with an address at 44 Belgrave Square West, sold for €3.4 million.

And, according to The Irish Times, it was one of the most expensive homes sold in Ireland in 2025.

At the time Lorraine and Peter purchased their Monkstown property, in the mid-2000s, it was divided into flats, so Lorraine put her figurative hard hat on and crafted plans for a massive renovation, while also being eight months pregnant.

The family home was restored to its former splendour after they set about changing the eight flats back into one house, while preserving some of the key features that make it unique.

She previously called her style of interior decorating "eclectic and a total mix", and though their former home was a period property, they added a few contemporary details to put their stamp on it.

Lorraine said she focused on making the house look "homely" while still being "casual and classic", using a mixture of cream carpets and matching furniture.

And it was there that Lorraine and Peter watched their two daughters, Emelia and Romy, grow up into the young women they are today.

Speaking previously about which room in the house was her favourite, the Xposé presenter told The Irish Times that her walk-in wardrobe was her pride and joy.

Her kitchen and breakfast room also held a special place in her heart, due to their spaciousness, natural light, and high ceilings.

Sharing the news that she'd moved house last month, Lorraine said that it was a bit of a "stressful" time as the four family members packed up all of their belongings.

"So, we moved house after 23 years ... to say it was a stressful time," she said.

The TV personality put some of their stuff in storage because their "little temporary rental wasn't going to suffice".

Now, she's looking forward to renovating her new place.
