City townhouse for village people

Dublin 4: €750,000: A townhouse in the Leeson Village development off Upper Leeson Street in Dublin 4 is for auction through Sherry FitzGerald on May 13th with a guide of €750,000. Number 17 has only two bedrooms, but its 143 sq m (1,550 sq ft) gives an indication that the extended modern house has good-sized reception areas.

The entrance hall is a large open-plan, room-sized area. It opens into a bright and airy livingroom that is also used by the present owners as a dining area. The beech wood flooring is Junckers and it runs throughout most of the ground floor enhancing the feeling of spaciousness.

The kitchen has been recently refurbished and is smartly fitted out with contemporary-style units and tiled flooring. Upstairs there are two good-sized double bedrooms, both have en suites. There is a guest cloakroom downstairs.

At the back, the garden is patio-style with a side entrance, raised beds and paving stones, though it is large enough for new owners to do more adventurous planting. There is an integrated garage to the front and the whole of Leeson Village is accessed via electronic gates.
