DUBLIN 4 €825,000:NUMBER THREE Ballsbridge Avenue is a smartly refurbished two-bedroom cottage in the heart of Ballsbridge village. The house is bijou and forms part of a terraced row that has its own private road. It is an ideal investment or pied-à-terre material.

It is for sale by private treaty through Felicity Fox with an asking price of €825,000.

The front door opens into a livingroom with a vaulted ceiling. This room has mood lighting and tongue-and-groove niches. The fireplace is fitted for gas but conversion back to an open fire is possible. An open-plan vanilla gloss kitchen is situated to the rear. An interior courtyard flanks the kitchen and livingrooms and brings oodles of additional light into these rooms.

The two bedrooms and bathroom are set off a corridor which in turn opens onto the livingroom. The main bedroom is to the rear and has courtyard views. The second double is to the front and has great home-office potential. There is underfloor heating throughout.

It is an extremely well put together property. The house was gutted and rebuilt two years ago. At 56sq m (600sq ft) it is small but perfectly formed. The brown furnishings don't do the place justice but with some pale and interesting elements this is an old-style home with an all-new interior that's ready to walk into.
