Phoenix Park on the doorstep of this Dublin 7 three-bed

For Sale

This home, just off Blackhorse Avenue, D7, has been upgraded, its angular extension giving it a contemporary interior. It is also on the doorstep of the Phoenix Park, where the morning roar of lions at the zoo acts like an alarm clock.

Boasting a B3 BER, this three-bedroom, three-bathroom, 125 sq m terraced home just off Blackhorse Avenue has an angular extension that washes the back of the property in south-facing light.

Located in a mature cul-de-sac, it is also just a short walk to a turnstile gate that gives you access to the park, which is home to this part of the capital's most famous neighbour, President Catherine Connolly.

When there's an easterly wind, the morning roar of the lions at nearby Dublin Zoo acts as an alarm clock for locals.
