Glenageary/€2.25m: A charming red-roofed bungalow sitting on one-third of an acre of sunny back garden at Spencer Villas, off Adelaide Road in Glenageary, Co Dublin is expected to fetch over €2.25 million at auction through Lisney on May 10th.
The three-bedroom house is likely to be eyed by housebuilders, though it would be a shame to see such a lovely garden built over and the neighbours on this quietly affluent road would almost certainly be opposed to any redevelopment.
The house was thoroughly and stylishly renovated about 10 years ago and has around 142sq m (1,530sq ft) of living space, all on one level.
The manageable size and layout makes it an ideal trade-down home for anyone selling up a big house in the area, being close to the shops and cafés of Glasthule village.
Inside, the layout is simple and symmetrical with the large panelled hallway leading through to a a gorgeous livingroom with a high vaulted ceiling and picture windows overlooking the garden. There is a good-sized kitchen diningroom, which also faces the garden. The three bedrooms share a large airy bathroom and there's a guest cloakroom.
