Dublin 14: €600,000 A three-bedroom home at 29 Lower Churchtown Road, Dublin 14, will attract interest not only due to the scarcity of these houses on the market but also as it's beautifully presented and extended. It is guiding €600,000 with Lisney prior to auction on February 24th.

The front garden provides privacy from the road with a gravelled area fitting at two cars. Once inside, there is a sense of brightness and intimacy, yet the house feels bigger than its 102 sq m (1,100 sq ft). To the right off the hall is a sittingroom with an aspect across to Milltown Golf Club. Features including doors, windows and floorboards (covered by cream carpet) are original to the house, which was built by the Irish Land and Sailors' Trust in 1927. Built-in shelves span the open fireplace.

The bright hall is tiled in a dark slate colour and a nook under the stairs is plumbed for a washing machine. Opposite this is the recently fitted eat-in kitchen which has plenty of built-in storage and integrated appliances. This was where the original house ended but a previous owner extended across the back to provide a diningroom and a family room in an L-shape around a courtyard. The family room has a double pitched roof which continues the cosy feel while large sliding glass doors add a contemporary touch. These lead out to a deck that gets the morning sun. Steps lead down to a long grassy garden which ends at a patio. There is pedestrian access to a short lane at the back.

This leafy view can be enjoyed from a window on the turn of the stairs, and there are three bedrooms upstairs. The largest is a double with built-in wardrobes, a cast-iron fireplace and a window overlooking the golf club. This room and the single over the hall have sloping ceilings and a picture rail. A second double at the back has built-in bookshelves. The bathroom has been redone recently and the fittings are high quality. The Luas stop is visible from the front gate and Dundrum, the city and the M50 are within easy reach.
