All the hard work is done, which means you don’t have to try to find builders and then manage them as they juggle multiple jobs.
It has been extended, and there is underfloor heating throughout the ground floor. The property has been rewired and has new windows and an updated heating system.
The layout has been reworked too. The peppermint green front door opens into a checkerboard tiled hall.
Originally, the living room would have been at the front of the house to the right of the entrance hall, where there are good ceiling heights.
This is now one of its two double bedrooms. Well-appointed, it features a cast iron fireplace and split plantation shutters that give privacy and allow some light through the upper half, which is useful in winter. This would be a great bedroom for a teenager as there’s a bit of distance between it and the principal bedroom.
Down a set of steps is where most of the living will be done. This is an open-plan living room cum eat-in kitchen.
The living area features cognac-coloured leather sofas set around built-in bookcases.
The kitchen features cyan blue cabinetry with quartz countertops, while an island acts as a natural boundary between it and the dining area. There’s an exposed brick wall here that brings in additional texture.
Large sliding doors allow access to an enclosed south-facing rear garden with a storage unit and pedestrian access to a vehicle lane.
The property comes with a south-facing back that isn’t overlooked, save for the occasional distracted commuter on the Dublin Connolly to Maynooth/Sligo and Grand Canal Dock to Newbridge/Hazelhatch services. The train line runs along an embankment at the back of the house.
Upstairs, the original two rooms have been turned into a swish principal bedroom with a windowed ensuite bathroom. The accommodation has loads of built-in storage, and the bathroom features exposed brick on its remaining chimney breast.
Pre-renovation, the property last sold for €382,000 in October 2021, according to the property price register.
Agents Sherry FitzGerald Drumcondra is seeking €595,000 for the B-BER-rated residence, which extends to 89 square metres and has pedestrian rear access.
