GLENAGEARY: €1.5m:AN imposing two-storey over garden level house in Glenageary is set in what looks to be splendid isolation at the end of a long tree-lined drive off Albert Road.

In fact viewers will discover that although The Laurels looks like a standalone house, it is actually attached to a similar house to the rear, called The Beeches.

The Laurels is a substantial house with 280sq m (3,000sq ft) of living space that includes fine high-ceilinged reception rooms lit by tall bay windows.

Lisney is asking €1.5 million for the property which will be on open view for the first time on Saturday.

Granite steps lead up to the front door which opens into a wide entrance hallway. To the right is the drawingroom with its impressive pillared chimney piece and a second door leading to the rear hallway off which is a study and cloakroom.

A second sittingroom also has a wide bay window that gets the afternoon sun. The layout is repeated on the top floor where there are three bedrooms, the main room with views down to the sea and across to Howth.

At garden level there are two further reception rooms as well as as a spacious kitchen. All three rooms over look the lushly planted gardens that lend a real sense of privacy to this unusual property. There is off-street parking in front of the house, a yard and garage to the side and a greenhouse.
